BARBOUR

My father's name is Lucien BARBOUR. His father's name was also Lucien BARBOUR, as I believe his father's was before him. My grandfather was born in eastern Kentucky, but it is believed that his father (or grandfather) probably came from Barbour county, WV, after losing a sizeable piece of land following the Civil War. I know that Lucien and Carroll are both family names, but beyond that I don't know anything about my ancestry. Do you have any information about two brothers who owned an estate in Barbour township, then separated following the War? Do you have any record of any Lucien BARBOURs or Carroll BARBOURs in the early to mid 1800's? I am trying to trace my dad's family, but have not been able to find any birth or death records in the counties they came from. Thank you so much! Diane Werckle, E-mail: dianemariewerckle@yahoo.com

BENNETT - TRIMBLE - WEAVER

Looking for info on John H. BENNETT, husband of Jerusha TRIMBLE and father of John Edward BENNETT. John H. was likely born in Barbour Co. about 1850 and his son was born July 18, 1878. Most interested in the father and grandfather of John H. BENNETT.

I believe both were employed by the B & O Railroad. It may be that John H. may have been born in the Baltimore area. I do know that John E. was married in April 1902 in Taylor Co. to Alice WEAVER. I am also sure that John H. Bennett was married to a Jerusha TRIMBLE. These individuals also lived in Taylor County for a number of years.

My hope is to research my family back to their English origins. I am presently posted working for the US Military in the UK for a while longer and would like to hire a good genealogist. Do you know of one? Thanks very much for any assistance you can offer. Ralph, E-mail:Bennett@cnauk.navy.mil

POLING - PRICE - RIGHT - WRIGHT

I'm researching whether Anna RIGHT who married Martin POLING in 1816 as recorded at the following internet address: http://www.rootsweb.com/~wvbarbou/randmar.htm in this web site, later married William PRICE in 1819 as Anna POLING, also recorded at the same internet address.

Would anyone happen to know if this is true or not? Many thanks. E-mail: wayprice@yahoo.com

Note: The marriage records that you are interested in were extracted from the records of Randolph County WV, you may want to contact the County Clerk there to obtain copies of the documents in connection with the marriages. M.C. Lew.

BEE - TOWNSEND

Hello. My name is Robin Henterly (Townsend). I am trying to research my family. I live in NC. I was in WV last year, but I kept getting sent from from place to place until I ran out of time. I never did make it to the place I needed to be -- The Cultural Center. I plan to try again in 2002. Anyway, I am trying to find birth records, Ephraim and Alonzo TOWNSEND's death records, anything on TOWNSENDs. I know my GGGrandfather John Arkensas Townsend was born in WV. I have his DOB as 1862 from the census, his tombstone has his DOB as 1864, and his death certificate has his DOB as 1863. He died in Ohio.

I found a census of John and his family in 1900 Spencer,Roane Co.,WV. I did get my Great Uncle Ephraim's birth certificate (WV). It says John was born in Philippi, Barbour Co. It shows Ephraim and his Mother, Rachel Jane (BEE) were born in Doddridge (Near West Union). If you can be of any help I would deeply appreciate it.

Here are John and Rachel Towndsend's children:

Thank you in advance. Sincerely, Robin Henterly E-mail: kvn551@excite

Any information you have will be appreciated. I do not know that either of them were ever in Barbour County, but it was a surprise to me that Van might have been born in Ohio. So I'm grasping at straws. Thank you for your help. Avonlea Marvin, E-mail: aemarvin@iland.net

ESTER - GAINER - OESTER - OSTER - OYSTER

Mostly not a query, but useful item found in perusing:
The OSTER, OESTER, OYSTER, OASTER name was rather common in Barbour until most of the boys moved out a few years before 1850. The mother of the group remained in a home with one of the daughters in 1850.

This evening I became conscious of this line in the records we copied from Randolph records:

John Gainer (&) Susana Easter (dau of) Jacob (married) July 28, 1813 (by) Simeon Harris

With little doubt this Jacob is the father of the first generation of OASTERs in Barbour-Randolph and the husband of the 80 (?) year old widow still living with a Barbour family in 1850 census. This may be the critical link in the connection to the ESTERs of Hampshire or Pendleton Co.

Incidently, this John GAINER was probably a son of George GAINER who came from Allegheny Co., MD. George's brother Bryan appears to have been younger than George by several years and likely not old enough to be the father of this John as he was likely born in 1778. But that is not certain.

Regarding the GAINERs. I recently found two listings of Sarah (wife of George Gainer) in Gilmer records. In 1850 she was given age 70; in 1860 her age was transcribed as 93. The first is possible -- not likely as she would have probably had a child at age 10 to 15. The other age would make her 23 to 28 for first known child.

My question: Has anyone found a will of George GAINER in Lewis or Gilmer county? A list of his children would help greatly in sorting out the children of George & Bryan. ???

Today I noticed a census listing for a William GAINER in Allegheny Co., MD in about 1810 or 1820. Perhaps George left a child in Allegheny when he moved to Randolph! ??

SWEARINGEN

I need to find obscure sources for my SWEARINGENs in Barbour County. I haven't been able to find any death records (1860-70) for any of them, yet they were living in Barbour from the 1840s until the 1860 census; No cemeteries, no nothing. The land transactions suggest that at least one of my couples didn't sell their land until 1876 -- yet there is nothing for them on the 1870... They are not in any will indexes either.

I feel like I have actually read every item available from the LDS; do you know of any vital records sources I might try? Thanks, Lynne, E-mail: uhler@dim.com

My name is Patricia Jenkins Wyrick.

There is a marriage recorded August 19, 1920 in Barbour County for James C. JENKINS, age 38, born in Braxton County, married Jannie BOSTIC, age 22, born in Greenbrier County. I am trying to locate info on my grandfather's family, including his name. My mother, Ruby Lee JENKINS, was born in Philippi, WV, August 22, 1925, daughter of Jim(?) JENKINS and Lula Jane Bostic JENKINS. Jim(?) is the only name my mother ever heard him called. He disappeared from her life when she was 3. She thought he had died then, but we have info that he was possibly still living in 1947. There is a record of James C. JENKINS, son of Madison JENKINS and Dora E. Smith, buried in Mt. Olive Cemetery near Philippi along with his mother Dora E. Smith Mackey. This James C. JENKINS died November 15, 1967 in Barbour County.

I would appreciate any information you could possibly provide to me. Ruby is the last child still living of this union and has asked me to try to find some info on her dad. We have a photo of him given to her by her maternal grandmother, but there is no name on the back. When she was 3, he took her, along with her older brother and sister, to his brother's home near Renick. After he dropped out of sight, the children were sent to different people. They had no contact with their mother for several years, and never again lived with her. My grandmother Jane passed away in 1995. My mother took care of her for the last 10 years of her life.

BERRY

Looking for the parentage of my g.g.grandfather Andrew Jackson BERRY (b.1816-17) whose parents were native to VA and of Irish descent. WV>IN>IL>IA. His first two children William and James, were born in the late 1830's we believe in WV. The other nine children were born in Edgar County IL and Jasper county IA to his second wife Sarah YORK. His first WV wife's name is unknown to us. She died in childbirth. One of Andrew's children, Solomon would say in later Texas Censuses 1885 and 1913, that his father was from WV. The given names of A.J.B.'s children have similarity with many of Henry BERRY's descendants, but any real connection is unknown. ANY leads to the right WV family would be kindly appreciated as this our families "brick wall". Thank you. E-mail: WLFRDLY@aol.com

CHANNEL - HORNBECK - KERNS - SMITH

Seeking any available information concerning Sydney CHANNEL, b. 18 August, 1843, Barbour Co., WV, d. 13 February, 1915, in Cantril, Van Buren Co., IA. According to information gathered by my wife's family, Sydney CHANNEL came with her parents Moses & Catherine CHANNEL (we don't have Catherine's maiden name) to the Niles district 3 mi. south of Cantril about 1853. About 1863 they moved to Clark Co., Mo. She married Jeremiah SMITH March 24, 1862 and in 1873 they moved to Cantril.

I've seen information elsewhere identifying a Moses CHANNEL, b. 1805 in Randolph Co, WV , (son of Samuel CHANNEL and Sarah Elizabeth HORNBECK) who married Catharine KERNS. One of the 10 children identified for this Moses and Catharine is a daughter Cidney, b 1844. The source of this information did not list any place of death for Moses, Catharine, or any of their children, so I'm somewhat hopeful that these are the same individuals who later wound up in Clark Co., MO, and that Sydney (her husband's obituary spells her name Sidney) and Cidney are the same person, but I certainly don't think that I can conclude that without further information. Any information that might help determine whether or not these are the same folks would be much appreciated. E-mail: StanLJones@aol.com
