  6. Laura Bryant says:

    I am the granddaughter of Bird and Narrie Bryant of Logan West Virginia, and looking for photos of Hester Ann Hensley-Bryant and General Bryant of Logan West Virginia. Thank You and God Bless

    • Dodie (Smith) Browning says:

      Laura,
      Who are your parents? I believe I have a picture you might like to have. It is Bird Bryant as a young boy with his father, General Bryant. This General was my mother’s uncle and my great uncle.

      • Laura Bryant says:

        My Father is Clovis Bryant, Yes I would love to have those pictures. :) Thank you so much!!

        • Dodie (Smith) Browning says:

          I didn’t know Clovis. Is he Minnie’s brother? There is only one picture. It is father and son together. It is a snapshot from a larger picture that was hanging on a relatives’s wall. I need your email address. Is it okay for Frank (the owner of this site) to give it to me?

        • Dodie (Smith) Browning says:

          Laura, Did you get the picture of Bird Bryant and General Bryant that I sent in private email last night? I didn’t get an acknowledgement so just want to make sure you got it.

          • Laura Bryant says:

            That is not Bird Bryant, that is James Bryant with General Bryant. James Bryant is the second child of Bird and Narrie Bryant. Thank You for the Picture, we love looking at old photos. Showing them to my sons. :)

          • Dodie (Smith) Browning says:

            Thanks for the correction, Laura. That is who I was told it was when my husband took the snapshot back in the 1980s.

  8. Janet Hill Caldwell says:

    Seeking information on Lorenzo D. Hill family connection with Hiram Hill family.

    • Shelby Burgess says:

      I am glad someone mentioned the Hill family of Chapmanville. I have never researched that family, but have some notes left by my late wife (Norma Hager Burgess). She was a descendent of Alonzo Dow Hill. He was the first postmaster of Chapmanville (1836). I have nothing on Hiram Hill; but would like info about him, if possible. Thanks.

  9. Jewel Meoak (Barber) says:

    Hi, I am looking for any information on my grandparents Lockard Bryant and Margaret Baily. Lockards father and mother were Thomas Bryant and Lula Mae Adkins and Thomas’s father and mother were Alex Bryant and Zola Ronyon. That is where I am stuck. Any information on any of them would be a great help. My email address is: sleepingrose2003@yahoo.com

    • Dodie (Smith) Browning says:

      Hi Jewel,
      I have heard of Zola Runyon for years but have never been able to find anything about her in public records. The Runyons didn’t live anywhere near the Bryants and there was no transportation back in those days. I know that Anthony Bryant gave the information on Thomas’s death record that Tom’s parents were Alex Bryant and Zola Runyon, but I am almost positive this was an error. Alex Bryant was only 12 years old when your Thomas was born and didn’t live anywhre near the Runyons (who lived in what later became Mingo County). IMHO, Anthony was probably confused when questioned, and gave Thomas’s brother’s name instead of his parents. Tom’s marriage record in Lincoln County to Lula Mae didn’t give information on their parents either. I am almost positive that Thomas was the son of my great grand parents, Corbin and Patsey (Thompson) Bryant. Your Thomas’s age fits with the age of Corbin and Patsey’s son, Thomas, who first married his first cousin Martha Thompson and then when he was a 58 year old widower, married Lula Mae Adkins in Lincoln County when she was age 20. There were other men named Thomas Bryant, but yours is the only one old enough to be the s/o Corbin and Patsey. Their Thomas was born August 1850. I feel certain that your Thomas was an older brother to my grandfather, Preston Bryant, as well as a half brother to Anthony “Tone”Bryant and to Alex “Uncle Zan” Bryant..

      • Jewel Meoak (barber) says:

        Could you please contact me by email? sleepingrose2003@yahoo.com
        I have copies of Thomas and lula mae’s marriage certificates and death and some birth certificates! But it is easy for someone to give the wrong info! I also have an uncle named Thomas Bryant son os Thomas and lula Mae but he can not remember anything! My mother and all her brothers and sisters were taken and adopted out! I am not only looking for me but for my mother as well who has spent most of her life searching for answers! Did your Thomas have a son named lockard? If so then they are te same person! Thank you for the information and I look forward to speaking with you more!

        • Jewel Meoak (barber) says:

          I forgot to mention that I have found history on Zola Runyon that does list her as Thomas’s mother and from an old bible my mom has it is written in there but pages are missing so we do not have Thomas’s siblings names!

  10. Mary Bates says:

    Any information on Frank Opatrny, he may be my great uncle and am looking for information on the family. I recall my grandma having lived in Neff, Ohio. mgrayn42@aol.com

  11. Kathryn Landolt (nee Cole) says:

    Hello – I am looking to connect with anyone who might have known Opal Imogen Cole, born October 3, 1916 or her son, David Cole, Sr. (nickname Mick) born July 5, 1946. They are my grandmother and father. I know that Opal’s mother’s maiden name was Mc Comas (or Mc Comis…not sure of spelling). I am not sure of all of Opal’s siblings, but I do know she had an older brother named Ralph (LN?), and sister’s named Merle (LN?), Hallene (LN?), and Doris Blankenship. I was also told of a possibly Uncle “Whitey”. I can be reached at katieocole@gmail.com and would love to hear from anyone related or who may have connection to the family. Thanks very much – Katie

  14. Lisa Richey Lazlo says:

    Hello everyone my name is Lisa, I am the Granddaughter of Ose Richey. I am in hopes that someone may have, pictures buried in an old trunk or an attic of my family. My Mother Violet Moore Richey died in 1958 at the age of 24, several years later my grandfather house burned and most family pictures were lost. I also would love to here from anyone who know my mother, if living she would be 78. She moved from Mason County around 1952, My e-mail is violetr105@aol.com Thank you

  15. Susan JoHantgen Knost says:

    Looking for my former college roommate at Ohio Northern Univ., Ada, OH, in 1965. Her name was Donna Norman and her family came from Logan, WV. Please contact at jsknost@bellsouth.net.

  16. JoAnn Burns Welker says:

    I would like very much to connect to a dear friend from Logan that I believe lived on Stratton Street close to me. At the time we lived in the Episcopal Parsonage because my father was Father George A. Burns, the priest at Trinty Episcopal Church. Her name was Marilyn Royer. Interestingly I was only 5 years old when her family moved but it tramatized me so that I have tried to find her ever since. This would have been about 1953. I remember something of her father going to Pebble Beach, Ca but not sure if that is accurate. We also moved about that time to Indiana.
    I also would like to know if any Hagans, Evendolls (sp) or Brewers are still around who would remember our family.
    Additionally, I ran away from home on my tricycle and ended up on Statton Street a few blocks from home at an ice cream store where I borrowed the money for a cone. Does anyone know where that store was? Is the building still there?
    Thank you for your help and hello to all……miss the mountains.
