Hello, We are looking for information on the Jeptha and Catherine Kern/Kearns Smith family, who moved to WV sometime before the Civil War, from VA. And we are not sure where they moved to in the beginning. They ended up in Calhoun Co later. They had 2 sons: Jeptha Henry and James Lewis Smith and daughters: Mildred, Susan, Fanny, Nancy, Matildy, Virginia, Martha, Lucy, Catherine A., and Lily Smith. Sincerely, Janice, ([email protected])
