| 6854 | Barnesville, Marion County WV (history) At the beginning... In 1763, John Beall, a Maryland school teacher, settled and taught school on Buffalo Creek. The small settlement that grew up around it was called Buffalo Station, Damascus Mills, and later Barnsville. The first post office in what is now Fairmont was located in Barnsville. Barnesville was incorporated in 1906, though the surname of the family it was named after was spelled Barns. William Meredith was Mayor, and W. A. Wilson was the Recorder. In 1913, Barnesville became a part of the City of Fairmont SOURCE: https://www.wvgenweb.org/marion/towns/barnesvillehis.html | SWIGER, John Albert (I122195)

| 6858 | Based chiefly on notes and records preserved by Judge Arthur Lee Gaston, and privately printed according to his will. | Source (S2134)
|

|
| 6860 | Based on age 19 reported at time of death. | GASTON, John E. (I1051)
|
| 6861 | Based on age 85y9m29d given in death record, birthdate would be May 5 1858, but Minnie Kendall Lowther reports March 14 1858. | WARD, Charles Alvin (I5077)
|
| 6862 | Based on age 90y 5m 7d shown on headstone. | TURNER, Mary Jane (I1303)
|
| 6863 | Based on age at death, birth date would be Sep 10 1883. But 1900 Census shows it as Aug 1883. | TOWNER, Mildred Bernice (I38609)
|
| 6864 | Based on census records, Enos Bee was born as early as 1825 or as late as 1833. Based on marriage records, he was born as early as 1827 or as late as 1832. The 1827 date is considered most likely, as it is found in the earliest census return and in his first two marriage records. 1860 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Jun 5 1860: Enos Bee, 33, farmer; Martha, 55; F Y (female), 7; E A (female), 5; Hannah, 35; Maria, 30. All born in Virginia. (Note: It appears that Enos' wife Elizabeth had already died, as the adult women of the household consisted of his mother, sister and half-sister.) 1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (New Milton Twp), enumerated on Aug 6 1870: Enos Bee, 35 (sic), farmer; Hannah Bee, 38; Elizabeth A. Bee, 15. (Note: Relationships were not indicated in these two censuses. Despite the age discrepancies, Hannah and Maria are believed to be Enos' sisters.) 1880 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (New Milton District), enumerated on Jun 5 1880: Enos Bee, 55, farmer, b. W.Va, father b. N.J., mother b. Va; wife Martha, 58, b. Pa, both parents b. Pa. 1900 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (New Milton District), enumerated on Jun 18 1900: Enos Bee, 67, b. Mar 1833 in W.Va, farmer, married 47 yrs; wife Martha, 70, b. Nov 1829 in Pa, both parents b. Pa, married 47 yrs, mother of 8 children (7 still living). | BEE, Enos (I52311)
|
| 6865 | Based on census records, Hannah was born as early as 1822 or as late as 1832, with her marriage record putting it in between at about 1826. Although the earliest record appears to be the most reliable, there still remains the conflict that Jonathan married Martha Howard in 1817, and Hannah's mother was reportedly Margaret. 1880 Census, Lewis Co, WV (Freemans Creek District), enumerated on Jun 26 1880: William Frazier, 68, farmer, suffering from dropsy; wife Hannah, 50; sister-in-law Mariah, 41; nephew Nimrod, 16; nephew William G, 11; nephew Harvey L, 6. (Note: The birthplace for everyone was West Virginia. The birthplace for Hannah's father was New Jersey, and Virginia for her mother, while the birthplace for both of Mariah's parents was listed as New Jersey. This is at variance from the Virginia birthplace that is found for Mariah's mother in her marriage record and all census records. It does lend credence, however, to the idea that Hannah was a half-sister to the rest of her father's children.) The following enumeration pertains to William and his family with his first wife: 1850 Census, Harrison Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Aug 30 1850: William Frazier, 38, farmer, value of real estate $1,000; Jemima, 37, cannot read/write; Joseph, 17; Eliza, 15; John, 13; Abraham, 11; David, 9; Rebecca, 7; Albert, 5. | Family: William FRASHURE / Hannah BEE (F19880)
|
| 6866 | Based on locations and ages, the following census records appear to pertain to the family of this Rufus Brown. 1810 Census, Brooklyn, Windham County, Connecticut: Household of Rufus Brown: 1 male age 26-44 1 male age 10-15 3 males under age 10 1 female age 26-44 1 female age 45 or older No entry for this Rufus Brown was found in the 1820 Census. There is a Rufus Brown and his family listed in that census in the town of Thompson in Windham County, but that was found through probate records to be a different Rufus Brown, who died in 1825 and whose wife was Huldah. 1830 Census, Pittsfield, Otsego Co, New York: Household of Rufus Brown: 1 male age 50-60 1 male age 20-30 1 female age 50-60 1 female age 15-20 Rufus Brown died in July 1832 and was survived by his wife Mary, who died in January 1838. A record of their children's names is found in Grantor Record Book 65, p. 413, Cooperstown NY, dated Feb 29 1840, in which the children of Rufus Brown signed a Conveyance-Indenture transferring ownership of his property to them. This was presumably done as part of the settlement of Rufus's estate, or perhaps of Mary's. Rufus and Mary probably died in Otsego County, their last known residence and the place of their burial. | Family: Rufus BROWN / Mary WILLIAMS (F25297)
|
| 6867 | Based on names of nearby households, location was probably in or near Clarksburg. | MAULSBY, Lawson Bartlett (I28692)
|
| 6868 | Based on nearby families known to have lived there, it appears in the 1870 Census that the Payton household was located in the Nutters Fork area. On the same basis, in 1880 the family seems to have been in the town of West Union. | PEYTON, John (I119634)

|
| 6870 | Based on the ages given in the various records, George W. Maxwell was born anywhere from 1858 (age 52 in 1910 Census) to 1865 (1920 Census and death record). Other records put it at various years in between. Birthplace given in 1880 marriage record as Gilmer County, in 1922 marriage record as Ritchie County, and in death record as Doddridge County. | MAXWELL, George W. (I37172)
|
| 6871 | Basheba's first name appears variously as Bashabee, Basheba (1850 Census), Barsheba (marriage record), Basheber (death record), Bashabel (son Joseph's birth record), and Bashie (headstone and son James' death record). | VINCENT, Basheba Belle (I754)
|
| 6872 | Basis for the Feb 25 1900 birth date is not clear. He did not appear with his parents in the 1900 Census, which was enumerated on Jun 8 1900, and his mother reported that she had given birth to no children. | SCHEUVRONT, Terry Leroy (I71729)

| 6881 | Before her marriage to Alexander Walker, Esther Gaston was cited for her heroic deeds during the American Revolution. During the Battle of Rocky Mount, when she saw three men fleeing, she asked to take their arms and fight in the battle herself. This prompted the men to return to the fighting. With patriotic spirits and kind hearts, she and her sister-in-law aided the wounded and dying during the Battles of Rocky Mount and Hanging Rock, dressing the wounds and quenching the thirsts of the seriously injured. | GASTON, Esther (I3334)

| 6891 | Benjamin Brain, from Preston Co, WV, married Susannah Howell. His father, James Brain, was killed by Indians, while Benjamin and brother Isaac Brain were captured. Benjamin was returned, but Isaac was never heard from again. James Brain and wife Nancy were supposed to have come from England. [Gaylene Kerr Banister, citing Olive Young Toland] | BRAIN, Benjamin (I10867)

|
| 6893 | Benjamin F. Davis' Military unit is given in H. H. Hardesty's "History of Doddridge County" (1883) as Co A, 14th W.Va. Infantry, as does his Civil War pension index card. But his military grave marker shows it as Co F, 6th W.Va. Infantry, which is actually the unit of a different Benjamin Daivs, who died in Rowlesburg in 1920. | DAVIS, Benjamin Franklin II (I63206)
|
| 6894 | Benjamin Franklin Jaco was not the natural son of Elizabeth Prunty, but rather was born out of wedlock to Susan(nah) Tucker, with his birth name being Benjamin Tucker. This is based to some extent on partially illegible records of an 1846 court case in Doddridge County, in which Benjamin Tucker, age 3, was bound over to Luke Jaco. (Another court proceeding established Luke Jaco as the father of Emma Tucker, who was born at the home of James Fleming as the illegitimate daughter of Susannah Tucker.) Partial transcripts of the 1846 proceedings are as follows: May 1846 Term "On motion of one of the overseers of the (illegible) ordered that some one at their body (illegible) bind (illegible) out Benjamin Tucker, an illegitimate child age 3 years, on 21st Jun 1846 to Luke Jaco until he arrives to the age of twenty one." Book 1, Page 82, August 1846 Term "Ordered that Luke Jaco show cause at the next term of this court why an order made by this court at the last (illegible) term thereof binding or ordering to be bound Benjamin Tucker (illegible) illegitimate child to him the said Luke Jaco should not be rescinded." signed by Nathan Davis, JP | JACO, Benjamin Franklin (I91834)

Local news item, "West Union Record," Thursday, Aug 31 1916, in its entirety: "Thomas Dilworth, formerly in the harness business here and a splendid gentleman, died Tuesday in Spencer. He was a member of West Union Lodge K. o P., and B. H. Maulsby went Wednesday morning to represent the lodge at the burial." Local news item, "West Union Herald," Thursday, Sep 28 1916, in its entirety: "Mrs. B. H.

| 6896 | Benjamin Wilson was a delegate to the Virginia General Assembly (1783-1786) and a colonel in the Revolutionary War. He has been described as the most prominent man in the Monongahela Valley and a person of great integrity and dignity.
