21258 Nothing has been found regarding Samuel Wisby in either records or family recollections. He must have died before 1824, in view of the land dispute and sale in Virginia in 1824, after the death of his father. This information was found in the Court Records of Monongalia Co, but the actual deed could not be found. [Gaylene Kerr Banister, citing "Those Irish Wisbys"] WISBY, Samuel (I10882)

21262 Numerous name variations are found in official records. Doddridge Co Birth Records identify him as Harry [sic] Paul Smith Jr., son of Harvy [sic] Smith & Virginia Elliott. But all other public records, including his marriage & death records, his grave marker, as well as his obituary and the death record of his son Terry, identify him as Paul H. Smith. Since his older half-brother was named Harvey Smith Jr., it is likely that the birth record entry was in error. SMITH, Paul H. (I14096)

21279 Obituary
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- William Maxwell Davis, age 89, died peacefully at his home in Charleston, WV, on July 2, 2021. Mr. Davis was born in Charleston, WV, on March 21, 1932, the son of the late James Hornor Davis II and the late Martha Davis.

He was preceded in death by his only brother, James Hornor Davis III; his sister-in-law Ouida Caldwell Davis and his step-mother, Eolyne Davis. He was the last of the 11 grandchildren of William Brent Maxwell of Harrison County WV.

He received his early education in Clarksburg and Charleston public schools and was a graduate of the Lawrenceville School, Lawrenceville, NJ and Princeton University. His entire business career was spent with the Bank of West Virginia, where he stepped down as president in 1979. In it, he followed a several generation of banking leadership. He was a world traveler and some of his earliest trips included the World's Fair in 1939 and the opening of the Olympic Games in Helsinki. He also served overseas in the U.S. Army. He twice served as the head of the West Virginia Commission on the Arts, appointed by the governor in 1968 a year after the commission's founding. He remained on through 2004. He also served on the foundation board of the Kanawha County Public Library and was eager to see the renovation through, which he hoped would be quite welcoming to all. His vast philanthropic interests included the Clay Center for Arts and Education (formerly Sunrise Museums), various music organizations - Chamber Music and WV Symphony, the University of Charleston of which he once served as acting president, The Historic Glenwood House Foundation for which he was serving his 41st year as president, WVU, his schools Princeton and Lawrenceville and many auto related museums and his church. Retiring early from his banking career, he dedicated much time to serving on the boards of various non profits across a broad array of interests throughout his state and the country.

A passionate automobile enthusiast from his very early days, he often recalled childhood events (and throughout his life) by the car that was involved. He was also among memberships and roles in a dozen different auto clubs, especially active with the Classic Car Club, the Classic Car Club of America Museum and the Rolls Royce Owners Club and Foundation and served as national president of all and judged the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance for over 30 years. He was the oldest continuous American member of the UK based 20-Ghost Club the oldest Rolls Royce auto club in the world and his cars often won best in class. An especially memorable event among many was his delight in taking an American built 1928 Rolls Royce Springfield (MA) roadster with left hand drive to England for a tour- creating some sensation on both continents, including New York Times photo coverage of it boarding the QEII for his Atlantic crossing.

Mr. Davis is survived by his nephew, James Hornor Davis IV (William Hague); his niece, Frederica Davis; his five great nieces: Frederica Morgan Davis, Faith Maxwell Davis Iselin (Alex), Tilden Davis Arnold (Alex), Warren Davis and Baird Davis.

He was predeceased by his nephew, Lewis Caldwell Davis. He cherished his ongoing contact with Caldwell's longtime partner, Beth Secor. He took great pride in them and their generations. He will be remembered for his great charm and for his genuine devotion to West Virginia, his community and his family -- and for his bowties.

In Charleston WV, visitation will be from 4 - 6 p.m. on Wednesday, July 7 at Bollinger Funeral Home, 420 Lee Street West. The memorial service will be Thursday at 1 p.m. July 8, at St. Matthew's Episcopal Church, 36 Norwood Road, Charleston, WV 25314.
Persons desiring to make memorials should make them to the charity of their choice.

DAVIS, William Maxwell (I118645)
 
21280 Obituary and SSDI indicate a birth date of Aug 9 1898. His birth record also indicates a birth date of Aug 9 1898, but that was a delayed entry filed in September 1963. He was not present for the 1900 Census, and age 9 in the 1910 Census puts his birth in about 1901. Age 27 in the 1930 Census would put his birth in about 1903, conflicting with the birth date of brother Otis. BEE, Ola Glenn (I18090)
 
21281 Obituary and death record indicate burial at Upper Arnolds Creek Cemetery. But a headstone for him and his wife Mona is at Masonic in West Union. ROLLINS, John William (I81159)
 
21282 Obituary and funeral card state birth as Jul 12 1890 in Doddridge Co, but this would not be possible since her twin sisters were born in Apr 1890. Headstone reads Jul 12 1888, and online death record states birth data as "est. 1888." GASTON, Sarah Rulina (I321)
 
21283 Obituary and SSDI give birth date as June 30 1891, but headstone date is 1892. WHITE, Mary Parmelia (I17963)
 
21284 Obituary and SSDI give birth date as Nov 7 1898, but 1900 Census shows age as 6 months, birth date Nov 1899. KRENN, Clay (I18370)
 
21285 Obituary and SSDI indicate a birth date of Sep 18 1891, but 1900 Census gives age as 7, with birth date Sep 1892. GAMSJAGER, Alma M. (I13019)
 
21286 Obituary and SSDI state birth date as Mar 19 1892, but birth record indicates Mar 19 1893, and 1900 Census, enumerated in June, gives her age as 7. HART, Etta Wanda (I6432)
 
21287 Obituary appearing in the West Union Herald of Thursday, Jan 17 1957, stated that he died "at 3 a.m. Sunday, Jan. 6, ..." But death record reports date of death as Jan 13 1957. HESS, Sherman (I28684)
 
21288 Obituary correctly gave age as 70, but misstated birthdate as Feb 1 1935 rather than the actual Feb 1 1933. Marriage record and SSDI entry confirm the 1933 date. Obituary specified birthplace as Cabin Run in Ritchie County, while marriage record states birthplace as Toll Gate. Cabin Run goes along the county line separating Ritchie and Doddridge Counties and is located in both counties. Toll Gate is also on the border of the two counties. WHITEHAIR, Brady Raymond (I16797)
 
21289 Obituary erroneously gives death date as Jan 14 1921, which was actually the funeral date. Headstone, which was placed by her brother Samuel nearly 80 years later, erroneously gives death date as Jan 27 1921. HILEMAN, Maude Arlene Ruth (I295)
 
21290 Obituary for Marcelene Powell Nicholson states that she was born on July 5 1923 and died on July 5 2003 at age 79, which would be mathematically incorrect. Her SSDI entry lists her birthdate as Jul 5 1924, which is presumed to be correct. POWELL, Marcelene (I20935)

21293 Obituary gave birth and death dates of Dec 20 1903 and Dec 22 2002, but gave age as only 89. SSDI entry concurs with these birth and death dates. HATFIELD, Lena (I17437)
 
21294 Obituary gave birthplace as Conning, which is not found in West Virginia and was presumably intended to be Conings. CHILDERS, Thelma Ruth (I18004)
 
21295 Obituary gives age as 76 and birth date as Jul 7 1904. But the 1910 Census gives age as 10, headstone shows birth date as Jul 7 1900, the 1900 Census shows his age as 11 months with birth in Jul 1899, and the SSDI shows his birth date as Jul 6 1899. NUTTER, Chauncy Darrell (I57031)
 
21296 Obituary gives birth as Jul 23 1894, with age at death in Feb 1976 as 81, which would seem to be correct. But SSDI and Doddridge Co History Book give birth as Jul 23 1895, as does his birth record. HICKMAN, Leland Morris (I9565)
 
21297 Obituary gives birth date as Jan 20 1888, but birth record says Jan 21 1888. HART, Mary Erma Lee (I6429)
 
21298 Obituary gives birth date as May 27 1906 in Oxford, but birth record states May 17 1906 at Summers, and SSDI also says May 17 1906. PIERCE, Sadie Alma (I7548)

21300 Obituary gives birth date as Sep 9 1894, with age at death in Mar 1974 being 79, which would be correct. Death record also has birth date as Sep 9 1894, and age 17 given at time of June 1912 marriage would also put her Sepember birth in 1894. But SSDI gives her birth date Sep 9 1892, her birth record also states Sep 9 1892, and her headstone reads 1893. SUTTON, Hannah Pearl (I18221)
