17779 Isaac and his brother, John, were among the Gaston families for whom the community of GASTON in Lewis County, WV was named. GASTON, Isaac M. (I1464)
 
17780 Isaac Griffin enlisted in January 1776 in the Continental army, for one year, in Colonel Haslet's regiment, 1st Company, Captain John Patten. He went into active Service in August, and was under fire several times. He re-enlisted for the duration of the war. During his service he was mainly instrumental in capturing the leader of a group of Tories, lead by Cheney Clow. The adherents of Clow hated Griffin intensely, and after the close of the war his personal safety was endangered.

17784 Isham Morrison was a farmer, merchant and live stock shipper and made a lucrative living. He was a Baptist and a Democrat. He was also a contractor. The book Covered Bridges of Harrison County, Harvey Harmer, 1956, page 33, says in 1872 the City contracted with Isham to build a new bridge for $670 to be completed by October 15. On the 12th of November 1872, Jacob Cork reported Morrison had completed the covered wooden bridge across the creek on the Northwestern Turnpike, two and one-half miles west of Clarksburg for $800.

"Two of Isham's brothers, William and Thomas, were neighbors of Peter W. Ash; they went fox hunting together and frequently took the Morrison slaves (Jack, Joe, George, Mose, Beverly, Armstrong & Ed) along who entertained them with Virginia Plantation songs" (from Vol. 2, p 126-131, Family Stories & Bible Records by Lolita A. Guthrie).

17785 Israel William "Bill" Coffman was an engineer for and retired from the WV Dept of Highways. He was one of the main engineers for I-79 and did the ground work for the building of WVU Basketball Coliseum. He then became involved in the Coal Mining Industry in Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Wyoming, where he was superintendent for many mine sites.
Mr. Coffman was on the Board of Directors for the Carbon Co. Hospital in Wyoming and was Mayor in Hanna, Wyoming for many years. In honor of his many years of service for said town, the citizens of Hanna named a road and bridge in his honor. [Obit] 
COFFMAN, Israel William "Bill" (I124753)
 
17786 It appears that Albert N. Davis and Sylvia C. Cooper separated or divorced soon after their 1921 marriage. In the 1930 Census, he was enumerated in Lincoln County, Oklahoma with three sons from his first marriage, while she was still in Greenbrier District, Doddridge County, with her children from her first marriage. In 1930 Albert gave his marital status as widowed, while Sylvia's was indicated as married. She retained the.Davis surname. Family: Albert Nelson DAVIS / Sylvia Corina COOPER (F59889)
 
17787 It appears that Floyd McKinney and Martha Ash separated or divorced sometime between 1900 and 1910. In the 1910 Census, his marital status was listed as widowed, but she appeared in the 1920 Census in the household of their son Goff, with her marital status also listed as widowed. Family: Floyd MCKINNEY / Martha ASH (F8136)
 
17788 It appears that Hardesty's "History of Doddridge County," in his listing of the soldiers of Co A, 14th W.Va. Inf, misidentified Lewis Maxwell Dennison as William R. Dennison. We have found no record of William R. Dennison in Doddridge or surrounding counties or in Civil War records. DENNISON, Lewis Maxwell (I33523)
 
17789 It appears that Juliet Lowther was sometimes known as Julia, the same name as her sister, who never married. Family Bible entries show the two sisters as Juliet Lowther (b. Oct 11 1812, married to Smallwood Wilson) and Julia Lowther (b. Oct 6 1817, never married). Julia's headstone identifies her as Julia Lowther (Oct 6 1817 - Apr 17 1906). Juliet's grave is unmarked, but she is identified in her death record as Julia Wilson, d. Aug 13 1898, age 85. Juliet's marriage record to William Smallwood Wilson clearly identifies her as Juliet Lowther, although some researchers have incorrectly transcribed it as Julia. LOWTHER, Juliet (I43413)
 
17790 It appears that neither Ann Tucker nor her daughter Sophrona ever married, despite each having borne and raised several children. No marriage record was found for either, no census record showed them with a husband, and both of their death records indicated their marital status as single. However, Ann's daughter Sophrona's death record identified her parents as William Tucker and Unknown, her son Benjamin's death record identified his parents as John Tucker & Ann Tucker, and her daughter Sarah's death record identified her mother only by the surname Tucker, with the father's name blank. But all of Ann and Sophrona's children listed with them in the 1880 Census were identified as illegitimate children.

1850 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Aug 5 1850:
Susanna Tucker, 34; Ann, 23; Cassy, 21; Grove S, 6; Emeretta, 5; Frony J, 3; Mary A, 2 months; Jeremiah, 2 months.

1860 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Jun 15 1860:
Ann Tucker, 33; O. S. (male), 16; S. (male), 12; S. (female), 6.
(NOTE: Entry of the initials O. S. for the 16-year-old male is considered to be a clerical error, as the boy is undoubtedly Ann's son Grove S. Tucker. The 12-year-old probably should have been listed as a female, since that would have to be Ann's daughter Sophrona. The 6-year-old female would be Sarah.)
In the adjoining household was the following family, consisting of Ann's parents and other family members:
Wm. Tucker, 72, farmer; Mary, 72; Jeremiah, 45; E J (female), 24; J (male), 10.

1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (West Union District), enumerated on Jun 7 1870:
Ann Tucker, 46, weaver & housekeeper; Sophrona J, 23; Sarah, 17; Benj W, 7; John M, 5; Mary I, 6; Taliaferro (male), 3; Thomas, 1. Race of all was white. Notations for Sophrona and Sarah indicated that they were unable to read or write, although Sarah was indicated as having attended school within the past year.

1880 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (West Union District), enumerated on Jun 3 1880:
Ann Tucker, white female, 60, housekeeper, single; bastard son Benj, white male, 16; bastard son John, white male, 14.
In the adjoining household were Ann's daughter Saphrona and five children. 
TUCKER, Ann (I69170)
 
17791 It appears that Vance Tucker understated his age by five years at the time of his enlistment in the Army, and that he carried the misstated birth date for the remainder of his life. His birth record shows that he was born on Sep 24 1902 in Morgansville, son of Benj W. Tucker & Lily A. Whitehair. That date also corresponds to his stated age 8 in the 1910 Census, 17 in 1920, and 27 in 1930. But his birth year was given as 1907 at the time of his March 1942 enlistment, and his SSDI entry shows his birth date as Sep 24 1907. TUCKER, Vance E. (I78079)
 
17792 It has been incorrectly reported by other researchers that Cassa Ann Nutter's husband was C. W. Stewart. But marriage and census records show that Cassa Ann Nutter, daughter of John C. Nutter and Emily Vincent, was married first to Andrew Jackson Adams, and then to George H. McQuain. The wife of G. W. Stewart was instead Cassandra (aka Cassa or Cassie) Nutter, b. ca 1845 in Ritchie Co, daughter of John Nutter and Mary Mounts, who later married Enoch N. Hobbs.

1860 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Jul 7 1860:
A. J. Adams (male), 27, farmer; Cassa, 25; S. T. (male), 2.

1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Southwest Twp), enumerated on Sep 2 1870:
Cassa A. Adams, 37; Salathiel T, 12.

1880 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Southwest District), enumerated on Jun 4 1880:
Cassa Adams, 45; son Selathiel T, 22, farmer; wife Suseanna, 20; son Walker S, 3.

No entry was found in the 1900 Census for Cassa or for her second husband, George H. McQuain. Minnie Kendall Lowther's "History of Ritchie County," p. 236, reports that Cassa married and moved to Ohio and had died prior to that book's 1911 publication. But no Ohio connection has been found for her or either of her husbands, and it is possible that Cassa Nutter was confused with Cassandra "Cassie" Nutter, who did marry and move to Ohio. 
NUTTER, Cassa Ann (I17859)
 
17793 It has been postulated that after her mother's early death, Gertrude Allen was adopted by a Randolph family. RANDOLPH, Gertrude Allen (I121573)
 
17794 It has been reported by some researchers that John S. Douglass married Elizabeth Richards (b. 1794, d. Jun 21 1847) on Nov 15 1810, that she was the mother of his nine children, and that he also married Rachel Thomas. But Harrison County marriage records show that it was Rachel Thomas who John Douglass married in Nov 1810. It is unclear if he had another marriage. DOUGLASS, John S. (I50803)
 
17795 It has been reported by some researchers that Sarah Elizabeth Husk was born in California, then moved to Ohio. But this is inconsistent with all other records. Her 1879 marriage record in Calhoun County states her birthplace as Ohio, while her death record specifies Washington, PA. HUSK, Sarah Elizabeth (I816)
 
17796 It has been suggested that the birth names of this couple, both born in Germany, are Johann Heinrich Schmidt (sometimes anglicized to John Henry Smith) and Anna Margarette Angusbau. This is quite possible, and is presented thus in "History of Doddridge County," p. 234. But records show that he was known as Joseph Henry Schmidt (Smith), with nothing to indicate that he may also have been known as Johann or John. In all census records, he is identified as Henry Smith, J. H. Smith or J. Henry Smith, and she is always identified as Margaret. In the marriage and death records of their children, he is identified as Henry or Joseph Henry, and she as Margaret.

1850 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on July 30 1850:
Henry Smith, 52, b. Germany, farmer; Margaret, 54, b. Germany; Catherine, 10, b. Maryland; Susanna, 9, b. Md; Adam, 6, b. Virginia; George, 2, b. Va; Henry, 4, b. Va; John H, 3 months, b. Va.

1860 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on July 5 1860:
J. H. Smith, 45, b. Germany, farmer; M (female), 46, b. Germany; C (female), 20, b. Md; Susan, 19, b. Md; A (male), 15, b. Md; H (male), 13, b. Va; George, 11, b. Va; J H (male), 10, b. Va; E E (female), 8, b. Va; B (male), 4, b. Va; F A (female), 2, b. Va.

1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Southwest District), enumerated on Aug 23 1870:
Henry Smidth (sic), 54, b. Prussia, farmer; Margaret, 56, b. Prussia; George, 22, b. Va; John H, 20, b. Va; Barkhardt, 13, b. Va; Eda, 16, b. Va; Frances, 10, b. Va.

1880 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Southwest District), enumerated on Jun 16 1880:
Henry Smith, 64, b. Germany, farmer, afflicted with rheumatism; wife Margaret, 65, b. Germany; son Barget, 24, b. Va; dau Francis E, 21, b. Va; grandson Franklin, 9, b. Md.
In the adjoining household:
John H. Smith, 28, farmer, b. Va, afflicted with a broken arm; wife Iowa, 27, b. Va; dau Mary A, 2, b. WVa. 
Family: Joseph Henry SCHMIDT / Margaret ANGUSPAUGH (F16483)
 
17797 It is assumed that Hardenia died prior to her husband's remarriage. His marital status is not stated in that marriage record, and no further record has been found for her. DRAIN, Hardenia (I121760)
 
17798 It is considered likely that Absalom Critchfield was adopted. CRITCHFIELD, Absalom (I12874)
 
17799 It is considered likely that Eli B. Tucker was the son of Henry Tucker & Mary Maury, and the brother of William, Elenor & Cassandra.

1850 Census, Doddridge County, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Aug 16 1850:
Eli B. Tucker, 63, farmer; Margaret Dotson, 37; Jackson Dotson, 7; Preston Dotson, 6; Josiah Dotson, 4; Ruey Dotson, 3; Elizabeth Dotson, 2; Henry Dotson, 4 months.

1860 Census, Adair County, Missouri (Clay Twp, Wilmathsville Post Office), enumerated on Jul 10 1860:
Eli B. Tucker, 72, farm laborer; Margaret Tucker, 46; Jackson Tucker, 12; John T. Tucker, 10; Louisa J. Tucker, 7; Sudda Tucker, 5; Harrison Tucker, 47, farm laborer. All born in Virginia except Sudda, born in Missouri.
In the next household was the family of Nelson Tucker (39, b. Va.) and Adaline Tucker (28, b. Ohio) and children.
A nearby household was that of James F. & Mary Ann (Dotson) Kelly, who were in Doddridge County in the 1850 Census.

1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (West Union Twp), enumerated on Jun 10 1870:
Eli B. Tucker Jr, 42, b. Va, common laborer; Charlotte E, 39, b. England; Jettie E, 7, b. Va; Eli B. Sr, 82, b. Va, farmer; Adaline, 15, b. Missouri. 
TUCKER, Eli B. (I86109)
 
17800 It is not clear if Lulu Pearl Britton Simmons' first marriage, to Howard Francis Simmons, ended in divorce or if he died. In any event, she gave up for adoption their two sons, John Daniel Simmons and Gene David Simmons. BRITTON, Lulu Pearl (I11898)
