Spiral/Comb. Condition: New. No Jacket. Limited Edition Reprint. Early days in Pendleton County, West Virginia, are recalled through a mixture of colorful tales and factual data in this booklet comprised of excerpts from five rare vintage books: Historical Collections of Virginia by Henry Howe (1845); West Virginia in History, Life, Literature and Industry by Morris Purdy Shawkey (1928); History of West Virginia by Virgil A. Lewis (1889); ; A History of Pendleton County West Virginia by Oren F. Morton (1910); Virginia, a Guide to the Mountain State, a WPA publication (1941). This booklet is only 58 pages long, but because of its 8 1/2" x 11" size, we were able to put two or more pages from the original source materials on each page, so it is packed with information. The spiral bound booklet has the front cover, protected with a vinyl sheet. Some of the subjects to be found in this booklet are: Edmund Pendleton; Seybert's Fort; a biography of Major John C. Bond; WPA points of interest in the area; a List of Settlers before 1760; the Masonic Order in Franklin; Early Franklin; County Buildings; a School in 1830; Slaveholders in 1860; Population figures; Items from a Day-Book of a Merchant of Franklin in 1820; Churches; County Officials Before 1865; County Officials Under West Virginia (to 1881); School Teachers in 1872; Leading Farmers of 1860; Taxpayers in 1860; Pendleton Legislators; Pendleton Doctors, Dentists, Lawyers and Preachers; Surveys and Patents before 1788 (many names); A list of Tithables for 1790 (more names); Slavery in Pendleton; the Civil War; Names of soldiers and those exempted from service in 1794 and later; Pendletonians in the "War of 1861"; Confederate Regiments Containing Pendleton Men; the Battle of New Market; Roster of Men in Confererate Service. The booklet contains many names of interest to genealogical research. For additional genealogical information on Pendleton County, look for another of our listings, PENDLETON COUNTY WEST VIRGINIA GENEALOGY which was taken from Part II of "A History of Pendleton County West Virginia" by Oren Morton (1910).

Book
Spiral/Comb. Condition: New. No Jacket. Limited Edition Reprint. If you are trying to track down ancestors who lived in Pendleton County, WV, this is the booklet for you. No history here -- it's strictly a goldmine of genealogical information. The 196-page spiral bound booklet is printed on white bond, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", with the front cover protected with a vinyl sheet. The booklet is taken from Part II of "A History of Pendleton County West Virginia" by Oren Morton (1910). Although the booklet is new, it was reproduced from an old book in which some names were circled or underlined. Where this was done in pencil it has been erased, but where it was done in ink, it still shows up in the reprinted booklet. The booklet begins with a chapter on "The Nature of Family-Group Histories." As the writer concludes "When persued in the proper spirit, a genealogical search will result in new inspiration of effort rather than the reverse." This is followed by three brief but informative chapters on genealogical research, including a section separating the various Pendelton County family names into nationality groups. Then follows an index to names of "Pioneers and Sub-Pioneers" which I have copied here: Adamson, Alt, Anderson, Arbaugh, Arbogast, Armentrout, Armstrong, Ayers, Bennett, Bible, Black, Bland, Blewitt, Blizzard, Bodkin, Boggs, Bolton, Borrer, Bowers, Brady, Burgoyne, Burns, Byrd, Calhoun, Carr, Caton, Champ, Clayton, Conrad, Cook, Cowger, Cox, Crigler, Crummett, Cunningham, Dahmer, Davis, Day, Dean, Dice, Dickenson, Dolly, Dove, Dunkle, Dyer, Eckard, Evick, Eye, Fleisher, Fultz, George, Gilkeson, Good, Gragg, Greenawalt, Guthrie, Halterman, Hammer, Harman, Harold, Harper, Hartman, Hedrick, Helmick, Hevener, Hiner, Hinkle, Hiser, Hively, Holloway, Hoover, Hopkins, Huffman, Hyer, Johnson, Johnston, Jordan, Joseph, Judy, Kee, Keister, Keplinger, Kessner, Ketterman, Kile, Kiser, Kline, Kimble, Kisamore, Kuykendall, Lamb, Lambert, Landes, Lantz, Lawrence, Leach, Long, Lough, Mallow, Martin, Mauzy, McAvoy, McClure, McCoy, McDonald, McQuain, Mick, Miley, Miller, Mitchell, Moats, Montony, Moomau, Morral, Mowrey, Moyers, Mozer, Mullenax, Mumbert, Murphy, Nelson, Nesselrodt, Nicholas, Painter, Payne, Pennington, Pennybacker, Phares, Pitsenbarger, Pope, Priest, Propet, Puffenbarger, Raines, Ratliff, Rexroad, Riggleman, Roberson, Ruddle, Rymer, Saunders, Schmucker, Schrader, Shaver, Shaw, Shirk, Shoemaker, Shreve, Simmons, Simpson, Sinnett, Sites, Skidmore, Skiles, Smith, Snider, Sponaugle, Stone, Strawder, Stump, Summerfield, Swadley, Temple, Teter, Thacker, Thompson, Tingler, Trumbo, Vance, Vandeventer, Varner, Vint, Waggy, Wagoner, Walker, Ward, Warner, Waybright, Wees, Whitecotton, Williams, Wilfong, Wimer, Wyant and Zickafoose. Next there is a list of each surname with it's origin and where the family settled. For instance: Dyer--Scotch-Irish--Penn.--1747--Fort Seybert. The actual family names follow. And if your family had members living in Pendleton County in 1910, chances are you can "fill up" your family tree here. Names of spouses, children and siblings and other information is crowded into each listing. Occasionally a biography is included, sometimes dates and occupations are available, but often the data is limited to names, and relationships. For additional historical and genealogical information on Pendleton County, look for another of our booklets, a compilation of excerpts from five different books.
