Query Text: |
I am looking for information about my great grandfather Danford Blair Smith. He was born September 03, 1855 in Bedford County, Pennsylvania. He moved to Davis,Tucker County, West Virginia in 1890. He was a foreman of a lumber camp in the Davis area. I would like to know what lumber camp this might have been. My grandmother wrote a story about visiting the camp by train at Christmas time. Danford was married to Mary Frances Miller, also from Bedford County. They had 8 children...James, Edward, Mattie, Mamie, Clara, Frances, Nell and Ted. Danford passed away in 1939 and is buried in Davis. Mary Frances died on August 18, 1933 in Davis. Any information about either Danford or Mary would be appreciated. Attached is Danford in front of the Smith home in Davis, WV. My grandmother married Oliver Dayton Barr (b. March 26, 1886)from Keyser, Mineral County, WV. His father was Mahlon Harvey Barr and his mother Anabell Ross Foreman. I would be interested in any information about why my grandmother and grandfather were divorced. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
