Comments: Searching for information about the family of Charles Montague Belcher. Charles had a brother, Oscar who lived in Bluefield and a sister, Jayne who was an Army Nurse during WWII. I have no family history other than that. Would appreciate any information anyone may have. I think Charles was born in either 1890 or 1895 in Rosedale. Thanks in advance for any help.

Comments: This is the BEST website I have found so far. It is really wonderful. I have searched for years and found you by accident. Only knew ggrandparents were from VA. On 1860 census in Lebanon Township, I Found Thomas SKEEN aged 10 living with parents David A. and Nancy (no maiden name) and five siblings. Nearby were Caroline SELF aged 8, living with parents Thomas and Elizabeth and 3 siblings. Would like to know if anyone has census for 1850 and 1870. I believe they moved to Fleming Co. KY by 1880. ANY other information anyone might have is very appreciated. Thanks for a WONDERFUL site.
