I am a Roane Co, WV native but I now live in East Tennessee. I have been transcribing and photographing cemeteries and tombstones for about 20 years, both alone and with the help of my parents (and now my husband on the Tennessee cemetery pics). My dad knew those Roane County hollows and ridges like the back of his hand and had a wealth of knowledge to give. I loved learning the stories of those cemeteries and more importantly now, keeping the memories alive of those who are buried there.I am interested in and descend from these Roane/Kanawha Co, WV families: Stricklin/land, Larch, Naylor, Fields, Smith, Jones, Taylor, Dearman, Clarkson, Scott, Rucker, Price, Morris, Cobb, Helmick, Auxier, Ferrell, Boothe, and Bishop. From Braxton County and other parts of WV: Johnston, Tinney, Larch, Dilley, Wood, Barnett(e), Burroughs, Jackson, Coberly, Skidmore, Phipps, Mollohan, Dodril, Reip, Davis, and McElwain. Please email me if you are also related to any of these families. Please do not hesitate to contact me regarding questions, corrections, and/or additions for the items I post.
