Eunice was born ther according to her marriage record. Samantha & Zackwell's births are listed in Upshur Co. 1870 Union Township, Upshur Co., WV, (Wes Cochran), pg. 49, census#6-6, age: 45 VA farm laborer, with wife Nancy and 7 children, but I did not find a dau Virginia and feel their dau Lavinia may be your Virginia. No longer listed in Upshur for 1880 or 1900, nor 1900 Harrison Co. Not listed in 1850, 60 Harrison Co. This has been a hard family to trace, I have never been able to connect my Cassandra Cleland to any of the VA/WV group. Samanatha married William A. Gould Arp 3, 1877 Harrison Co. Patricia G.
