CANNOY, WARRICK -
I am interested in connecting these Warrick's. I believe John, William, Elizabeth, James, and Robert Warrick were siblings. They were all in early Grayson County and were born between 1770 and 1792. James b 1792 and Robert b 1791 married Cannoy sisters, Susan and Mary. John, James, and Robert possibly came from Ireland.

STRAIN -
I'm researching my Ohio Strain relatives. They appeared to have come to Ohio from VA (although it may have been WV because it was before 1863 that they migrated). Do you have any of the following Strains in your records:
John & Samuel (I think these are brother who arrived in Ohio in 1816. John had children who were born in the 1780' & 90's to give you a clue as to his age.
James, Robert, William, & Mary (Polly) were the children of John and arrived in Ohio in the 1810's. I have a lot of information on them after they moved, but can't find anything before. Can you help?

I have a silver cup that is inscribed "Eldredge to Louise" 11, 24, '06. The cup is from the Staunton Military Academy, Staunton, VA. I would like to get this cup to a family member if one can be located. There is no last name, just the inscription.

BEASON, BEESON, HENSEL, HENSELL, LEE, RIDGEWAY, RINER, STOOKEY, STUCKEY -
I have found that my Lee's are connected to George Lee, who married Mary Ridgeway in Dec. 1788 in Frederick Co., Virginia. She was the daughter of Richard Ridgeway and Charity Beeson/Beason. Mary was born in 1767, and unknown when George Lee was born or where. George died in Oct. 1814 in the War of 1812, leaving Mary a widow with 11 children, 4 under the age of 21. George was a Regular Army Artillery person, do not know when, where, or how he may have died. Their youngest son, Alfred R. Lee was born in 1811, I believe in Frederick co., VA. and was placed under the guardianship of his sister, Nancy Lee and her husband, George Hensel/Hensell, after the death of his father, George Lee. George and Mary Lee are my 5th GGrandparents, Alfred R. Is my 4th GGrandparent. He married in 1832 in Berkeley Co. WVA to Sarah Stuckey/Stookey, daughter of Hannah Riner and Simon Stuckey/Stookey. Alfred and Sarah had Thomas Jefferson Lee, my 3rd GGrandfather. If anyone can help with any of these families, I would appreciate any help.

Looking for parents, or any other information about my 3rd great-grandfather Brison Martin. Born in Virginia in 1811. Died in Gregg Township, Morgan County, Indiana in 1862. He married Nancy Staley, the daughter of a nearby land owner, in Morgan County Indiana in 1835. This is the earliest I can find Brison in Indiana.

GABBERT, HISEY -
I am trying to find the father of Joseph Hisey, and mother too, if possible Joseph married Elizabeth Gabbert in Sept. 1798 in Augusta Co., VA. Before that I cannot find him anywhere though I have searched since July, 2013. They were members of St. John's Reformed and Luth Church near Staunton and had several children baptized there before circa 1808. They moved to Greenbrier Co., VA, where Joseph died in 1828. He appeared on the 1820 census for Greenbrier Co., Lewisburg, and Eliz appeared on the 1830 census for Greenbrier Co., along with sons Abraham and Jacob Gabbert Hisey. By 1840 the two sons are in MO and I cannot find Eliz again. Thank you for your help with this.

DENTON -
Hi, I'm in need of a residential address lookup in Richmond (City) in the 1910-20 era. Maybe from a City Directory. I'm not in the city so unfortunately I can't go look it up myself! Not sure where to turn. Maybe someone has these directories on hand?
Looking to confirm a William L Denton living on Plum St...Clay Ward in the 1910 Census. Thanks
Bill M (Puerto Rico)
