Dear Researchers of Roane County, West Virginia, .... Does anyone have
more information on Mary M COOPER, who was a patient in the Spencer
State Hospital in 1900? .... Of about 425 patients in the 1900 list,
there was one COOPER, the above-named Mary .... According to the 1900
Enumeration of the residents of the "Second Hospital for the Insane
[the first one was in Weston], Mary M COOPER was born in February of
1831 which would make her 69 years in 1900.
She had been married for 21 years to her husband of that time [married
1879] and had 6 children, 5 of whom were living in 1900 .... This might
have been her second marriage, judging by her age at the time of the
marriage .... Mary was born in WV, her father in VA and her mother in WV
.... Thank you for any help you can give

were .... I work for the Nevada Historical Society and we have
researchers, I thought maybe you did too.

I hope you can help me. I am trying to trace my family history and I
haven't gotten very far. I can't find a link between my branch and the
rest of the family.
My great grandfather was Kenna BRADLEY. He was born 1/8/1884 in Roane
County, WV and died 2/1965 in Washington County, Ohio. Kenna was married
to Ruhema GREELEAF. (I'm not sure of the spelling of her name.)
I am trying to find the name of Kenna's parents. I think if I have that
link I can trace back further. If you can find this information out for
me or tell me where to go get it, I would appreciate it

Roane County marriage record indicate that James A TOWNSLEY married my
great grandmother, Sarah GREATHOUSE McMULLEN, on 22 November 1879. This
record indicates that she was 39 years old at the time, born in Roanoke
County, VA. Parents were Wm. and Mary. He and Sarah also appear in the
1880 and 1900 census residing in Roane County. He is not shown on any
prior census, nor can I find a death record. Sarah died in 1905 and is
buried in Spencer Memorial Cemetery with her first husband, Matthew
McMULLEN. Does anyone have information at all on James A TOWNSLEY ?
