Jackie, Thanks for looking out for me. I really don't have any idea at all who I'm looking for. Mother always said that my dad's mother was Cynthia Harless. (I know her first name was Cynthia for sure) One of my Clay cousins said that she was the daughter of Jefferson McComas and Mary Jane Harless. But at any rate for me she is a total brick wall. I do know that she was born on Sept 18, 1883, married my grandfather, George Wilson Clay on June 20, 1900 and died on Sept 6, 1966. My father, Claude Wilson Clay, was one of their nine children. If any one can help with this mystery I'd appreciate it. ____ Lynda Davis-Logan <[email protected]> "ever so happy in beautiful Ona, WV" researching: Adkins, Ball, Blankenship, Brashear, Cain, Chaffin, Clay, Davis, Ferguson, Gillespie, Harless, Huff, Law, McNeeley, Mounts, Osborn, Sanders, Stowers, Trout, Tunnel, Wilson
