| 13951 | Doddridge County Marriages, July 1914: Ward S. McClain, 21, of Doddridge Co; and Agnes Lang, 21, of Doddridge Co. Licence issued, but no return. | MCCLAIN, Stephan Ward (I28129)
|
| 13952 | Doddridge County records reflect that Hannah's older sister Sarah died on July 6 1859, at age 12 days, but also that Sarah married in 1865 at age 19. Hannah's birth record shows that she was born on June 24 1859, exactly 12 days before the July 6th date. Also, Sarah was listed in the family of their father Daniel H. Gaston in the 1850 and 1860 Census, but Hannah was never listed in any census. No subsequent record of Hannah has been found. It is clear, then, that it was Hannah who died on July 6th at age 12 days, and the entry of her sister's name was a clerical error. | GASTON, Hannah E. (I1048)

|
| 13962 | Don & Beulah Brown Stewart were owners and operators of the Stewart's Dairy Bar and Texaco in West Union. | Family: Donald Leland STEWART / Beulah Sophia BROWN (F25038)
|
| 13963 | Don Norman gives birth as about 1791 in Harrison County, and age 59 in 1850 Census would also put it in about 1791. But Hardesty states that Andrew Nutter died in 1855 at the age of 61, which would make the birth year about 1794. | NUTTER, Andrew (I6694)
|
| 13964 | Don Norman gives her birth date as 1802 in one place, but as 1806 in another. Age on badly worn gravestone appears to be 61 or 62. | DOTSON, Elizabeth (I46788)
|
| 13965 | Don Norman has birth date ca 1805, but Linder (p. 447) has it ca 1810. Age 40 in 1850 Census puts it at about 1810. | LOWTHER, Elizabeth "Betsy" (I32376)
|
| 13966 | Don Norman has birth for Christopher Nutter as ca 1816, but great-grandson John William Nutter states it as 1819. | NUTTER, Christopher (I13895)
|

|
| 13972 | Don Norman reports death date as Oct 25 1851. | CAIN, Catherine (I29162)
|
| 13973 | Don Norman reports Feb 12 1912 in one place, but Sep 12 1912 in another. Minnie Kendall Lowther, in "Ritchie County in History & Romance," p. 240, has Jul 12 1912. Ritchie County Death Records ledge entry shows it as Jul 15 1912, age 93y 4m 24d. | LOWTHER, Rosetta (I43416)
|
| 13974 | Don Norman reports marriage as Sep 23 1834 in Ritchie Co. | Family: Archibald LOWTHER / Charlotta WILLARD (F10742)
|
| 13975 | Don Norman's "Descendants of Robert Lowther," reports death date for Aquilla Reese as 1747, but then lists three children born after that date. | REESE, Aquilla (I32428)
|
| 13976 | Don Norman's "Descendants of Robert Lowther" and Linder's "Gibson and Related Families," p. 426, report a second marriage for William B. Lowther, to Elizabeth Dotson in Feb 1825 in Harrison County. But "Harrison County Marriages 1785-1894," p. 59, identifies the groom in that marriage as William D. Lowther (this was William B. Lowther's first cousin, William Dark Lowther, son of Elias Lowther & Rebecca Coburn); records of the family's children born after 1825 identify their mother as Margaret Coburn (who died in 1882); and the 1850 Census of Ritchie County identifies the parents in their household as William B. Lowther and Margaret (both age 63). Linder, on p. 436, provides the following caveat: "There is some indication that William B. was married two times. We have not, however, found a record of any other marriage." Minnie Kendall Lowther's "History of Ritchie County," p. 105, makes it clear: "In 1840, William B. Lowther, father of Dr. William R., with his wife, Mrs. Margaret Coburn Lowther, and their family, came from his native Harrison County, and succeeded his son on the Edward J. Lowther farm, at the mouth of Turtle Run. Here the remainder of his life was spent, and in the Pullman churchyard by the side of his wife, he lies at rest." Information regarding the immediate family of this couple was reported by Minnie Kendall Lowther in "Ritchie County in History and Romance," p. 270, citing the family Bible and the will of William B. Lowther. | LOWTHER, William Beamer (I32322)
|
| 13977 | Don Norman's "Descendants of Robert Lowther" shows that George Lowther, son of Robert Lowther & Nancy Lowrey, married M. Gregory. This is believed to be incorrect, probably from confusion with a different George Lowther. On Oct 30 1862, George Lowther, 22, son of Robert & Eliza (Highland) Lowther and brother of Joanna Lowther, married Mahala Gregory in Harrison County. This also brings into question whether Robert and Nancy had children George and Jonna/Joanna at all, as Norman does not list them among the children of Robert & Elizabeth (Highland) Lowther. | LOWTHER, George (I46844)
|
| 13978 | Don Norman's "The Descendants of Robert Lowther" reports the marriage of William Dark Lowther and Elizabeth Dotson on Feb 25 1825, which is confirmed through marriage records. But the only issue of that marriage is reported as daughters Mary J. (b. ca 1839) and Phebe (b. ca 1843), for which no basis has been found. This was likely the result of confusion with the family of William H. Lowther (b. ca 1805, son of Jesse C. Lowther & Phebe Cunningham) and Elizabeth Reese, who were married in 1837. The only known children of that William & Elizabeth Lowther, from census records, are Mary J. (b. ca 1839) and Phebe (b. ca 1843). Some researchers have reported the birthplace of William Dark Lowther as New York, but that is inconsistent with the records. His father is known to have been born in present-day West Virginia and to have raised his family there. William Dark Lowther is known from Family Bible records to have been born on Nov-23-1802, is known to have moved to Ohio not long after his 1825 marriage, and is known from his gravestone in Monroe County, Ohio to have died on Mar-27-1850. The confusion of his birthplace most likely arises from another William Lowther, born ca 1802 in New York, who appeared in the 1850 Census of Mercer County, Illinois with the following family members: Eliza, 43, b. NY; Henry, 17, b. Ohio; Julia, 13, b. Illinois; Salinda, 4. b. Illinois. In 1860, the same family was found in the village of Moline, Rock Island Co, Illinois: Wm. H. Lather [sic], 52, b. NY, shingle packer; wife Eliza A, 47, b. NY; Augusta A, 18, seamstress; Salinda L, 15; Henry J, 28, b. Ohio, and his wife Cyrithia, 20, b. Missouri; Ira Waterman, 32, and his wife Inlia F, 22. The relationship of that William H. Lowther with the Lowthers of this genealogy is not known. His son Henry is known from his death record to have been born May-10-1833 in Ohio, and to have died on Oct-19-1910 in Kirksville, Missouri. 1850 Census, Monroe Co, Ohio (Wayne Twp), enumerated on Sep 26 1850: Elizabeth Louther, 45; Johnathan, 19; Mary, 15; William, 11; Elias, 7; Sarah, 6. All born in Ohio except for Elizabeth, born in Virginia. No census record for Elizabeth was found for 1860. Their son Elias Luther [sic] was found in the household of Henry Winland, 22. | Family: William Dark LOWTHER / Elizabeth DOTSON (F19119)

| 13981 | Donald E. McNutt managed the O. J. Morrison store from Jan 1929 to Jan 1953, when he pruchased the business and changed its name to Don E. McNutt's. He operated the store for the next 21 years, until selling the business in 1974. The following news article appeared on the front page of the West Union Herald on Feb 7 1929: NEW MANAGER AT MORRISONS STORES Mr. D. E. McNutt, who has been connected with the O. J. Morrison Store of Clarksburg for some time, has been made manager of the West Union store of the Morrison Stores Company. Mr. McNutt has taken the position formerly held by E. W. Randolph, who has moved to Grafton, where he will enter in business. | MCNUTT, Donald Edwin (I102624)
|
| 13982 | Donald E. Ramage's "Doddridge County Cemeteries," Vol. IV, p. 75, reports birth/death dates for David Jennings as 8 March 1854 - 24 March 1855, age 1 year 16 days, based on the 1933 WPA cemetery reading. Readings of the cemetery by Ramage in 2001 and by Wes Cochran in 1990 ("West Union WV Cemeteries") did not locate a readable headstone for him. A birth record for David Jennings is on file in Doddridge County, stating that he was born on 3 March 1855, at variance with the headstone reading. The birth record is a typewritten entry on a ledger-style record book page, and the birth date entered there is believed to be an error in transcription from the original handwritten record. Whether the birth date was on the 3rd or 8th of the month, the headstone clearly shows that his age at death was a little over one year. | JENNINGS, David (I106378)
|

|
| 13986 | Donnelly's "Wests of Duck Creek," p. 303, reports birthplace as Gilmer County, but marriage record shows it as Ritchie County. | WEST, Leo Clive (I50445)
|
| 13987 | Donnelly's "Wests of Duck Creek" reports birth date as Apr 23 1892, citing Eli J. West Family Bible. But death record states birth date as Apr 23 1895, giving age as 58 at time of death on Jun 29 1953. Marriage record, however, shows that he gave his age as 22 at time of his Dec 1913 marriage. | WEST, Hoy D. (I24117)
