Bio and Links
Bio Photo My name is Brittany Wykle. I live in Summers County, WV. I have family lines through Summers, Greenbrier, Monroe, and Lincoln counties in West Virginia and Sampson and Cumberland counties in North Carolina.

I'm nineteen years old and I began getting into family history around 2009. Little did I know what I would get into and how much information I would find. I love cemeteries and finding out family history that nobody really knew before.

I began with tracing the Wykle family line which then tied into the Erskine and Morgan sides. I have recently followed the Browning line, the Taylor and Spell lines, and the Harvey and Ellison lines. I also work on a few lines for my friends.

Family names: Wykle (Various spellings), Erskine, Masters, Kessigner, Morgan. // Browning, Meade, Estep. // Taylor, Spell, Blue. // Harvey, Ellison.

I did maintain and add just family memorials but then I started branching out and covering complete cemeteries in Summers County. Also through genealogy, I have made a lot of great connections.

If I have up a picture and you want it removed, let me know and I will gladly remove it. Also, if you have any photo requests in Summers County or surrounding areas, I will do my best to get it.

Thomas Ball 105588426
Brittany I put a clearer tombstone on for Thomas & Rebecca Ball. Also left a note ref their daughter Catherine A.H.(Ann Hazeltine) Ball. I do not have a picture of Catherine (my grt Grandmother) as she spent last 40yrs or so in Ohio as a Wilson. Hoping someone will come up with one.

RE: Cemetery
I added a couple to the Ball (2) Leatherwood and started on the Ball burials but found some where already there with "unknown" for burial cemetery info so I sent the info to Walter Pack family to add to their memorials and asked that the two cemetery listings be aka to each other. Did you not see the Wm & Dicey Ball memorials [#89746028 & 89746091] slate markers or where you just doing Lilly? I will make a comment about the unmarked on Ball (2) Leatherwood but not sure of the number as I have these not listed by you (or me) previously. Thanks

RE: Cemetery
Hi Brittany I am trying to figure how to bring Wm & Dicey Ball who are in the same cemetery over but when I originally did them I was told it was the George Lilly Cemetery. Later I found the Ref to Ball (2) Leatherwood in the Summers Cemetery Book and put Lige Lilly & Wife under that. I cannot find how to change my George Lilly name or merge the two other than say AKA.

I have a lot more Ball names as well as a Charley Epperly (nfi); an Eliz Lilly (nfi); "Burdal(sp?)Lilly -adopted, was Burdal Luther"; (nfi)Susie Watkins (nfi); 2 Turpins (nfi); and "Mrs Winbush (Mrs. Doyles mother)" are all on the plot plan I was given back in 2002.

I have been buzy on my ELLISON side and have not been back to this cemetery or line. Will work on this.

Minnie Hylton Photo
The photo you took for me of Minnie Hylton's headstone; Minnie's maiden name was Houchins, then she married a Kessinger before becoming Hylton... Is she by any chance related to any of the Kessingers you are researching?

RE: Rosetta Lilly
Hi Brittany,
Thanks for the tip, and thank you for taking the pic. I got one, appreciate it. :-) Is there any way for me to take over her memorial, if you don't mind? I may be getting this possibility confused with WikiTree.
Sincerely,
Connie L.Combs
