Kathie and everyone. I have a Randolph Moss McComas was born on 26 Oct 1870 in Lincoln County, WV. His father was Payton (or Peyton) McComas and his mother was Lucratia (I don't have last name with me). He died on 24 Mar 1955 in Summers County, WV and where buried in the Greenbrier Cemetery there in Summers County. I think he worked for the Railroad, will look again. He was also a acholic. This is were I think his son Bob got it from. He married Eliza Gertrude McGhee, she was the daughter of John ?Taylor McGhee and Leanna "Luanna" Rife. Eliza was born in May of 1878 in Summers County, WV. She was born May 1878 (don't have day, Kathie, this is one that I need checked). She died in Paxton, Indiana will living with one of the daughters. Body was sent back to be buried beside her husband. I have that date at home on a piece of paper that I found yesterday. She was married to Randolph at the age of 22 as stated in the 1930 Census that would give you the marriage year. She was 49 according to the 1930 census. I assume they were married in Summers county since she was living there. Could someone please check the records for me. If you are working the McComas Line, specially if they come from the Cabell County. Payton came from Cabell and he had a couple of his children from Lincoln County before coming from Cabell. Payton was in the Civil War and fought for the Conferate Army. He was in the 9th Infantry of West Virgina. He was wound in the left leg. In the 1890 Special Census his post office Address was Ona, West Virginia. The Census was in SD 2 and ED 12; Minor Division Barbourville, WV. Children: Robert Swinney McComas born 26 May 1914 in Hinton, Summers County, West Virginia. He died here in Brevard County, Florida on 9 Jul 1975. They have two other children that I have from the Christine (born in 1908, West Virginia) and Lillian (born in 1911 in West Virginia) The years came from the 1930 Census Records for Summers County. They are both married according to Mom, but she does remember who and when. In the 1930 Census Christine 2as 22, Lillian was 19 and Robert was 15. Any help would be appreciated.
