| 19656 | Many of the ages given in the census records of this family are inconsistent with each other and with other records. In William & Lillie's marriage record, they were identified as William Cain, 22, b. Fayette Co Pennsylvania, res. Harrison Co, son of Levi & Hannah Cain; and Lillie M. Douglass, 16, b. & res. in Harrison Co, dau of John & Margaret Douglass. Married May 3 1882 in Harrison County. 1900 Census, Barbour Co, WV (Elk District), enumerated on Jun 14 1900: William Cain, 50, b. Apr 1850 in Pennsylvania, farm laborer, cannot read/write, married 18 yrs; wife Lellie M, 34, b. Feb 1866 in WVa, married 18 yrs, mother of 3 children (all still living); son James F, 16, b. Dec 1893 in WVa, day laborer; son Roy E, 4, b. Sep 1895 in WVa; dau Altie A, 1, b. Mar 1899 in WVa. 1910 Census, Barbour Co, WV (Elk District), enumerated on May 3-4 1910: William Cain, 53, laborer at odd jobs, cannot read/write, married 27 yrs; wife Lillie, 48, married 27 yrs, mother of 5 children (all still living); son James, 27, single laborer at odd jobs, cannot read/write; son Roy, 14; dau Alta, 11; dau Darl, 8; son Winfield, 1y 2m. All born in West Virginia except William, born in Pennsylvania. 1920 Census, Harrison Co, WV (Clark District), enumerated on Feb 3 1920 on Hanover Street: William Cain, 56, gate keeper at glass plant; son James F, 38, single, fill-in boy at glass plant; dau Darl M, 15; son Winfield, 12; wife Lillie, 54 [sic]. All born in West Virginia except William, born in Pennsylvania. The next enumerated household was that of William & Lillie's married daughter Alta and her husband George Woodcock. Another nearby household was that of married son Roy Cain and his wife Ila. 1930 Census, Harrison Co, WV (Clark District, Town of Nutter Fort), enumerated on Apr 8 1930 at 810 Pennsylvania Ave: William Cain, 75, no occupation, cannot read/write, age 21 at time of first marriage; wife Lillian, 65, age 18 at first marriage; son Roy, single [sic], laborer at odd jobs; dau Mable, 24, single, son Winfield, 22, single, no occupation. Again, the next enumerated household was that of married daughter Alta, her husband George Woodcock and their two adopted children. | Family: William CAIN / Lillie May DOUGLASS (F13017)

| 19657 | Many records, including his WW II draft registration, give his birth date as 14 Feb 1916, and the date on his headstone is also 1916. But his birth record and Railroad Pension Index show it as 14 Feb 1917. His 1936 marriage record incorrectly indicates his birth date as 21 Feb 1915, age 21. | MAYLE, Volen Waitman (I85590)
|
| 19658 | Many researchers identify this Christian Ash as Christopher "Christian" Ash, with the same 1770 birth date, but with a death date of Aug 20 1842 at Center Point in Doddridge County. However, we have found no conclusive evidence that he was known as Christopher, and we have also found strong evidence that he died in the year 1828. A rough headstone at Underwood Cemetery near Ashley, Doddridge County, is inscribed with "Chrispher Ash." It has no dates, and it is not even certain that the marker was placed at the time of his death. This may or may not be the headstone of this Christian Ash. He was listed as Christian Ash in the 1820 Census, with his household enumerated as follows: 1820 Census, Tyler County, Virginia (now West Virginia): Name: Christian Ash Enumeration Date: August 7, 1820 Free White Persons - Males - Under 10: 1 Free White Persons - Males - 45 and over: 1 Free White Persons - Females - Under 10: 2 Free White Persons - Females - 10 thru 15: 1 Free White Persons - Females - 16 thru 25: 2 Free White Persons - Females - 45 and over : 1 Number of Persons - Engaged in Agriculture: 1 Free White Persons - Under 16: 4 Free White Persons - Over 25: 2 Total Free White Persons: 8 Total All Persons - White, Slaves, Colored, Other: 8 On 21 October 1828, an inventory/appraisement was done on "the personal property of Christian Ash, deceased." This would indicate that his death occurred sometime during that year, probably within the several preceding months. The two-page appraisal was filed in Tyler County probate records in December 1828. Christian Ash's residence in the Center Point or Ashley area was located in Tyler County at that time, since Doddridge County was not formed until 1845. The appraisement was submitted to the court by Lewis Ripley, William Wells, Stephen Gatrell and W. Underwood [probably William S. Underwood, 1780-1866], all of whom where probably Christian Ash's friends and neighbors. Further bolstering the notion that Christian Ash died in 1828 is the fact that his wife Lovina was listed as head of household in the 1830 Census, as follows: 1830 Census, Tyler County, Virginia, now West Virginia Name: Lovinia Ash Free White Persons - Males - 20 thru 29: 1 Free White Persons - Females - 15 thru 19: 2 Free White Persons - Females - 20 thru 29: 2 Free White Persons - Females - 60 thru 69: 1 Free White Persons - Under 20: 2 Free White Persons - 20 thru 49: 3 Total Free White Persons: 6 Total - All Persons (Free White, Slaves, Free Colored): 6 In 1850, Lovina Ash was enumerated in Doddridge County in the household of daughter & son-in-law Mary & James Weekly. . | ASH, Christian (I92204)

| 19659 | Many researchers report Oldridge Ford to be a son of Thomas Ford and Elizabeth Dye, but we have found no evidence to support that. When Thomas Ford died in 1860, his will listed eight surviving children, none of whom was Oldridge. The death record of Oldridge Ford identified his father as Richard Ford, mother not given. "Davis - The Settlers of Salem, West Virginia," p. 359, reports nine children for this family, the eight listed here plus a son Stephen J. Ford, with no dates or other information. Again, Oldridge Ford is not included. Some researchers who have included Stephen with this family have reported that he died at Libby Prison in the Civil War. But we have not found a military record for this Stephen Ford, nor a listing for him in any pre-Civil War census. | Family: Thomas FORD / Elizabeth DYE (F15016)

| 19660 | Many researchers report that this Benjamin Brown (father of Rufus and 16 others) was born on Sep 1 1713 in Canterbury, Windham County, Connecticut, a son of Deacon Thomas Brown and Rachel Leavens, and died on Nov 17 1773. But we have not found original documentation for this, and it is contradicted by (1) the birth of four of Benjamin's children after 1773, (2) Benjamin Brown's entry in the DAR Patriot Index, (3) Benjamin Brown's will (a copy of which is in our possession) dated 1791 and proved in 1792, (4) the estate of Abigail Cleveland Brown Adams, administered in 1782, which mentions her "eldest son Benjamin Brown," and (5) the will of Josiah Cleaveland identifying Benjamin Brown as his grandson. The entry for Benjamin Brown, Patriot Ancestor #A015287, in the DAR Patriot Index reads as follows: Benjamin Brown, born about 1734 in England, died 1792 in Connecticut, married Hannah Benjamin, Patriotic Service in Connecticut. The England birthplace indicated by the DAR is inconsistent with all other references to this Benjamin Brown and is considered suspect. Our correspondence with the DAR revealed no basis for assigning the England birthplace, which was apparently the result of conjecture on the part of a DAR applicant. This appears to be the same Benjamin Brown mentioned in "The Benjamin Family in America," p. 113, wherein the husband of Hannah Benjamin is identified as Benjamin Brown (son of Benjamin Brown and Abigail Cleveland), born ca Apr 1732/33 at Canterbury, died Jan 1 1792 at Canterbury. Benjamin Brown was living in the house of his maternal grandfather, Josiah Cleveland, at the time of the latter's death. In 1751 Benjamin was called "the minor son of Mrs. Abigail Adams" and in her will was called "eldest son." (Abigail Cleveland Brown had remarried John Adams sometime prior to Nov 1741, birth date of their first child.) This would also be the same Benjamin Brown identified as a grandson in Josiah Cleaveland's will, extracts from which are found in "The Genealogy of the Cleveland and Cleaveland Families," pp. 81-82. Adding to the confusion, there is a birth record for another Benjamin Brown, born May 30 1734 in Stonington, Connecticut, son of John Brown. This appears not to be the Benjamin Brown of interest. Based mainly on the birth records of other children, it is likely that there were two or more Benjamin Browns who were married to different Hannahs in that location and time frame. All things considered, it appears certain that the Benjamin and Hannah of interest to us here were married in Canterbury on Feb 25 1755. Further confirmation is found in Connecticut probate records, which show that the will of Benjamin Brown, husband of Hannah and father of Rufus and others known to be in this family, was dated Nov 28 1791 and proved on Feb 7 1792 in Canterbury, Plainfield District, Windham County. Having thus established the parents of this Benjamin Brown as Benjamin Brown and Abigail Cleveland, we must wonder whether the aforementioned Deacon Thomas Brown and Rachel Leavens might actually be his grandparents. Further investigation will be necessary to prove or disprove that possibility. | BROWN, Benjamin (I60995)

| 19661 | Many researchers report that this Margaret Morrison married her first cousin, William Lowther, son of William Lowther & Sudna Hughes. But earlier researchers, notably Minnie Kendall Lowther in "History of Ritchie County," pp. 12-14, show that the Margaret Morrison who married William Lowther was born in North Carolina, a daughter of Archibald Morrison and a Miss Fooks. | MORRISON, Margaret (I46544)
