I came to your site looking for my 2x Great Grandfather James W Thompson born 1870 in Clay County, WVA according to census. James married Isabelle G Knicely on June 7, 1888 in Braxton County, WV.

Any way even though I did not see my line in your tree, I was very happy to have been able to read those letters from the time of the Civil War. It brought more awareness of the war to me. One of my Great-Grandfather's, and his brother were shot in the right leg at the Battle in Gettysburg, PA. Some would say he was unluck to be in that unit that lost so much in that battle from NC.

Trying to connect with Mitchell & Phoebe Clay. My ggggrandmother was Julina Ann Brumfield Coburn, wife of Thomas Coburn & daughter of Micajah Brumfield & Ellenor Clay. Ellenor may be the d/o David Clay, s/o Mitchel Clay?
I am hopeful Ellenor is related to Mitchel.
Sincerely,

Where are you from? Texas originally. Now Calif.
Comments:
I found your site really interesting. My Clay ancestor was Mitchell Clay who married Phoebe Belcher, through their daughter Rebecca who married George Pearis. I have a story that was written by a descendant of Patience Clay, another daughter of Mitchell and Phoebe if anyone is interested in it. It was written somewhere around the late 1800's. I'll be glad to send it on down. However, it's rather long to be posted on your site. You could check for yourself.

Super website. I'm sure I'll come back to it time and again. Mitchell and Phoebe Belcher Clay were my GGGGgrandparents. I had the pleasure, and almost overwhelming experience, of visiting Clover Bottom, the site of the massacre, last September. As I read the account, I could easily see the surrounding countryside in my mind's eye.
