The only trouble with Miller, is that some of his information is not correct. He takes what is said by people as truth and it isn't. So what you get from his books you need to double check. But it would be a good starting point, just check the information out.

Thanks for the response. I bought a copy of the Clay Family Settlement at the Tamarack last Sunday. It cost $18 there but my Mom lives nearby. I have Clay ancestry in three different lines, so found the books very useful. The photocopies I referred to came from a document or book that appears to be spiral bound. The pages are numbered 82 to 102 and are primarily about the Cook (or Koch) family. The pages I have seem well written and documented and I would like to obtain an original copy if possible. The author is shown as A.A. Hopkins of Bluefield WV. My other question is whether the information in the Hopkins book is duplicated in James H. Miller's History of Summers Co. which is currently for sale by the Summers County Library.
