(Also Noted) Due to a freak accident "while hanging up
laundry during the wintertime." Carrie slipped on some ice, and had injured her left leg; (causing infection to sit in), and sadly had to have her leg partly removed. My Great Aunt Dorothy Ann (Dot) said Carrie was probably in her mid-to-late "70's," when she lost her leg. And, that Carrie's almost legally blind husband, Joseph McNelion "Mack" Boone (who had lost the vision in his left eye, due to falling into a tree branch, while out hunting); and he was losing his sight in his other eye, so he didn't see Carrie laying on the ground "for hours," until it was too late and infection had set in. The family said poor Joseph felt so guilty for not being able to help her, that he fell into a deep depression and passed away before she did.
(Carrie Wade (Piles) Boone's Obituary):
Heading: Mrs. Joseph Boone
Mrs. Carrie Wade Piles Boone, 86, died at the home of her daughter, Bertha Snapp. Mrs. Boone was born in Inkerman, W.Va., on March 21st, 1880, the daughter of the late Rector and Ellen Saville Piles. She married Joseph M. Boone on Nov. 9th, 1897, in Moorefield, W.Va. She was a member of the Second Opequon Presbyterian Church. She is survived by the following children: Cecil Boone of Nain, Va; Marvin Boone of Winchester, Va; Nelson Boone of Nain, Va; Elmer Boone of Hamdon, Connecticut; and Mrs. Snapp of Grace Street (in Winchester, Va); 30 grandchildren; 44 great-grandchildren; and 8 great-great-grandchildren. A son, Marshall Boone preceded her in death. Her Funeral Viewing Services were through Jones Funeral Home in Winchester, Va., and she's buried beside her late husband Joseph "Mack" Boone, at the Mount Hebron Cemetery, also located in Winchester, Va.
(Here is some more PILES Family information):
Carrie's (Father) Rector Piles, was born on December 8, 1832, in either Oldtown, Maryland, or in Hampshire Co., "Old" Virginia (West Virginia), the son of Nancy PILES. His father is still unknown. But, a lady named (Sandra Neidholdt, with LDS Genealogy Research) told me years ago, that she believes (Rector Piles) mother (Nancy Piles) was the daughter of (Zachariah Piles Sr., and Hannah Mitchel), but, another person under the (Ancestry World Tree Project) submitted that (Rector Piles) was the son of (John H. Piles, Sr., and Susan Elizabeth Ruckman). But, here's where it gets interesting... While my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather (Rector Piles) was serving in the U.S. Confederacy Army, under (Captain. John H. Piles), I do believe "RECTOR" is indeed RELATED to this (Captain, John H. Piles) who by all means probably wanted (Rector Piles) to serve in his unit, so he could look out for young "Rector." But, prior to Rector's mother (Nancy Piles) death, she warded guardianship of her orphaned children, (which mentioned her son, Rector Piles), to be warded to (Reason/Rezin Haines) and (Josiah Constable), before her untimely death between (1849-1852), in Hampshire Co, W.Va. And, under the "Guardianship Court Papers," it said Nancy Pile's ORPHANS, so it's believed that Rector Piles may have had a sibling or two as well.
Carrie's father, Rector PILES/Pyles, was also a Confederate Army Soldier, during the "Civil War" (1861-1865). See his military records (below). Rector Piles died on May 6, 1907, in Kirby, Hampshire County, West Virginia. But, I also found another interesting lead, while doing research under the (Ancestry World Tree Project), I found the following information (John E. PILES, as the (son of Jacob PILES Sr., and Christinia (Francisco). And, that, (John E. PILES) was (b) May 8th, 1795, in Giles Co, Va. And, he married (Nancy J. (Bliss), who was (b) abt. 1808. Then, in (June 2020) I did the (Ancestry DNA Kit), which after I got my results back, ANCESTRY estimated that (Rector Piles) father was (Benjamin Piles) the son of (Zachariah Piles & Hannah Mitchel). But, if this is so, why would he leave (Rector Piles) an "Orphan," regarding Rector's Mother (Nancy Piles) Guardianship, in (1852); when I found (Benjamin Piles, married a a Martha Chapman) living down the street from Rector Piles "who was staying with John "Jefferson" Haines, under the (1850) U.S. Census. I do believe that (Rector Piles) and (Benjamin Piles) are indeed RELATED, but, "HOW?" So, this just makes our PILES research even harder... The (Question) is: WHICH ONE of these (John H. PILES "son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Benjamin PILEs, also a son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy PILES) said to also be a "daughter" of (Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy J. BLISS Piles, "who married (John E. PILES, "son of Jacob PILES and Christinia (Francisco); are the right parantage of "our" RECTOR PILES/Pyles?
Carrie's (Mother) Maria Ellen Saville, was born on March 21st, 1836, in Hampshire Co, West Virginia, the daughter of Isaac Saville and Delilah Asbury. Maria died on February 5th, 1907, in Kirby, Hampshire Co, West Virginia.

(Noted): I did some research on the "Civil War," and learned that the "Mounted Infantry Civil War Soldiers," could only weigh up to 150 pounds, due to the fact that the horse could only carry up to 200 pounds; and the soldiers supplies and gun, etc., were at least 50 pounds worth. Plus, it also said that men signing up for the "Civil War," having their own horse, were enlisted into the "Mounted Infantry Regiment." And, in case of the loss of their horse or horses, during battle, "if" the soldier survived the war, he was reimbursed for any loss of his horse(s), and any mare and any of the mare's colts.

Enlisted: August 20th, 1862, in Hampshire Co,
W.Va. Present as of March 1st, 1863 and
October 31st, 1864. Paroled April 26th, 1865
at Cumberland, Maryland. Light complexion,
light hair, blue eyes, 6'. Buried at Rock Oak
Cemetery, in Hardy Co, W.Va.
(Also Noted) Also listed in the same book is: Private, John H. Piles, Co. B., (b) August 15th, 1837. Enlisted: October 13th, 1862, in Hampshire Co, W.Va. AWOL as of March 1st, 1863. He claimed $ 3,000., for a bay mare "KIA" (Killed In Action) in Winchester, Va., dated September 5th, 1864. He (d) Dec. 5th, 1910. Buried at Mount Zion Cemetery near Augusta, W.Va. Also listed in the same book is: Captain. John H. Piles, Co. K., [the same one that Rector Piles served in], (b) Aug. 27th, 1832. Enlisted: October 20th, 1862 in Hampshire Co, W.Va. Appointed 1st Lt., on December 3rd, 1862. Present as of March 1st, 1863 and October 31st, 1864. Resigned on January 26th, 1865, (no reason stated).
(My Noted Comments): Is the Private, John H. Piles born on August 15th, 1837 (the same John Piles who was 13, under the same Census, (who was living with a Joseph Haines, just a few houses away from John "Jefferson" Haines (whom my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather Rector Piles was living with), a few houses away from a Reason "Reazin" Haines [who was warded guardianship over Rector Piles, prior to his mother, Nancy Piles' death in (1849)], all living in Hampshire Co, Va., be the younger brother, to my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather, Rector Piles? Because, on the "Guardianship" paperwork regarding "Nancy Piles" warding "Guardianship" to both Reason "Reazin" Haines, and Josiah Constable, prior to Nancy Piles' death, it mentions "ORPHANS" of Nancy Piles. So this makes me believe that Rector Piles had another sibling, and this makes me think that (John Piles) born in who also stayed with the Haines family under the (1850 U.S. Census) has to be related to my Rector Piles, somehow, if not his younger brother... And, I'm sure that, Captain. John H. Piles, (b) August 27th, 1832, was also related to Rector Piles, too, and was probably a cousin. Because it would make sense for Rector Piles to want to serve in the same unit/company (18th Virginia Regiment) under the watchful eye of his relative, Captain. John H. Piles, so that John H. Piles could help keep an eye out for his cousins, by having both Rector Piles, and John Piles, in his unit.

And, that my Great-Grandma Carrie also loved to talk and laugh a lot, too... So maybe that's where I got my talkative gene from. "Hee-Hee."

(Noted): Census stated that Joseph and Carrie were married for about (12) years; and had (4) children, but that only (3) were still living. So, this means that they just lost their "No-named" infant baby girl child (that was born in 1910, and died in 1910).
(1920 Census): Under J. M. Boone.
(Head) J M Boone 44 1876 W.Va. Farmer
(Wife) Carrie Boone 40 1880 W.Va.
(Son) Marshal Boone 21 1899 W.Va. Farm
(Son) Marvin Boone 18 1902 W.Va. Farm
(Daughter) Bertha Boone 13 1907 W.Va.
(Son) Cecil Boone 6 1914 Va.
Living in: Shawnee, Frederick, Virginia
(Noted): Census listed them living on Street: Cedar Creek Grade (which is also where my mother's Newlin and Snapp families also lived). The Census also listed Marshal's Occupation as a (Farm Laborer); and Marvin's Occupation as a (Farm Laborer), too.
(1930 Census): Under Joseph M. Boone.

(Son) Elmer A Boone 17 1923 Va. Farm
(Grandson) Melvin Boone 11 1929 Va.
Living in: Davis, Shenandoah, Virginia
(Noted): Census said they lived on Street: 628, of Rural Frederick County; and it stated Nelson and Elmer's Occupation as (Farm Laborers).
(Occupation): Housewife.
(Also Noted) Due to a freak accident "while hanging up
laundry during the wintertime." Carrie slipped on some ice, and had injured her left leg; (causing infection to sit in), and sadly had to have her leg partly removed. My Great Aunt Dorothy Ann (Dot) said Carrie was probably in her mid-to-late "70's," when she lost her leg. And, that Carrie's almost legally blind husband, Joseph McNelion "Mack" Boone (who had lost the vision in his left eye, due to falling into a tree branch, while out hunting); and he was losing his sight in his other eye, so he didn't see Carrie laying on the ground "for hours," until it was too late and infection had set in. The family said poor Joseph felt so guilty for not being able to help her, that he fell into a deep depression and passed away before she did.
(Carrie Wade (Piles) Boone's Obituary):
Heading: Mrs. Joseph Boone
Mrs. Carrie Wade Piles Boone, 86, died at the home of her daughter, Bertha Snapp. Mrs. Boone was born in Inkerman, W.Va., on March 21st, 1880, the daughter of the late Rector and Ellen Saville Piles. She married Joseph M. Boone on Nov. 9th, 1897, in Moorefield, W.Va. She was a member of the Second Opequon Presbyterian Church. She is survived by the following children: Cecil Boone of Nain, Va; Marvin Boone of Winchester, Va; Nelson Boone of Nain, Va; Elmer Boone of Hamdon, Connecticut; and Mrs. Snapp of Grace Street (in Winchester, Va); 30 grandchildren; 44 great-grandchildren; and 8 great-great-grandchildren. A son, Marshall Boone preceded her in death. Her Funeral Viewing Services were through Jones Funeral Home in Winchester, Va., and she's buried beside her late husband Joseph "Mack" Boone, at the Mount Hebron Cemetery, also located in Winchester, Va.
(Here is some more PILES Family information):
Carrie's (Father) Rector Piles, was born on December 8, 1832, in either Oldtown, Maryland, or in Hampshire Co., "Old" Virginia (West Virginia), the son of Nancy PILES. His father is still unknown. But, a lady named (Sandra Neidholdt, with LDS Genealogy Research) told me years ago, that she believes (Rector Piles) mother (Nancy Piles) was the daughter of (Zachariah Piles Sr., and Hannah Mitchel), but, another person under the (Ancestry World Tree Project) submitted that (Rector Piles) was the son of (John H. Piles, Sr., and Susan Elizabeth Ruckman). But, here's where it gets interesting... While my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather (Rector Piles) was serving in the U.S. Confederacy Army, under (Captain. John H. Piles), I do believe "RECTOR" is indeed RELATED to this (Captain, John H. Piles) who by all means probably wanted (Rector Piles) to serve in his unit, so he could look out for young "Rector." But, prior to Rector's mother (Nancy Piles) death, she warded guardianship of her orphaned children, (which mentioned her son, Rector Piles), to be warded to (Reason/Rezin Haines) and (Josiah Constable), before her untimely death between (1849-1852), in Hampshire Co, W.Va. And, under the "Guardianship Court Papers," it said Nancy Pile's ORPHANS, so it's believed that Rector Piles may have had a sibling or two as well.
Carrie's father, Rector PILES/Pyles, was also a Confederate Army Soldier, during the "Civil War" (1861-1865). See his military records (below). Rector Piles died on May 6, 1907, in Kirby, Hampshire County, West Virginia. But, I also found another interesting lead, while doing research under the (Ancestry World Tree Project), I found the following information (John E. PILES, as the (son of Jacob PILES Sr., and Christinia (Francisco). And, that, (John E. PILES) was (b) May 8th, 1795, in Giles Co, Va. And, he married (Nancy J. (Bliss), who was (b) abt. 1808. Then, in (June 2020) I did the (Ancestry DNA Kit), which after I got my results back, ANCESTRY estimated that (Rector Piles) father was (Benjamin Piles) the son of (Zachariah Piles & Hannah Mitchel). But, if this is so, why would he leave (Rector Piles) an "Orphan," regarding Rector's Mother (Nancy Piles) Guardianship, in (1852); when I found (Benjamin Piles, married a a Martha Chapman) living down the street from Rector Piles "who was staying with John "Jefferson" Haines, under the (1850) U.S. Census. I do believe that (Rector Piles) and (Benjamin Piles) are indeed RELATED, but, "HOW?" So, this just makes our PILES research even harder... The (Question) is: WHICH ONE of these (John H. PILES "son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Benjamin PILEs, also a son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy PILES) said to also be a "daughter" of (Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy J. BLISS Piles, "who married (John E. PILES, "son of Jacob PILES and Christinia (Francisco); are the right parantage of "our" RECTOR PILES/Pyles?
Carrie's (Mother) Maria Ellen Saville, was born on March 21st, 1836, in Hampshire Co, West Virginia, the daughter of Isaac Saville and Delilah Asbury. Maria died on February 5th, 1907, in Kirby, Hampshire Co, West Virginia.

(Noted): I did some research on the "Civil War," and learned that the "Mounted Infantry Civil War Soldiers," could only weigh up to 150 pounds, due to the fact that the horse could only carry up to 200 pounds; and the soldiers supplies and gun, etc., were at least 50 pounds worth. Plus, it also said that men signing up for the "Civil War," having their own horse, were enlisted into the "Mounted Infantry Regiment." And, in case of the loss of their horse or horses, during battle, "if" the soldier survived the war, he was reimbursed for any loss of his horse(s), and any mare and any of the mare's colts.

(Also Noted) Also listed in the same book is: Private, John H. Piles, Co. B., (b) August 15th, 1837. Enlisted: October 13th, 1862, in Hampshire Co, W.Va. AWOL as of March 1st, 1863. He claimed $ 3,000., for a bay mare "KIA" (Killed In Action) in Winchester, Va., dated September 5th, 1864. He (d) Dec. 5th, 1910. Buried at Mount Zion Cemetery near Augusta, W.Va. Also listed in the same book is: Captain. John H. Piles, Co. K., [the same one that Rector Piles served in], (b) Aug. 27th, 1832. Enlisted: October 20th, 1862 in Hampshire Co, W.Va. Appointed 1st Lt., on December 3rd, 1862. Present as of March 1st, 1863 and October 31st, 1864. Resigned on January 26th, 1865, (no reason stated).
(My Noted Comments): Is the Private, John H. Piles born on August 15th, 1837 (the same John Piles who was 13, under the same Census, (who was living with a Joseph Haines, just a few houses away from John "Jefferson" Haines (whom my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather Rector Piles was living with), a few houses away from a Reason "Reazin" Haines [who was warded guardianship over Rector Piles, prior to his mother, Nancy Piles' death in (1849)], all living in Hampshire Co, Va., be the younger brother, to my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather, Rector Piles? Because, on the "Guardianship" paperwork regarding "Nancy Piles" warding "Guardianship" to both Reason "Reazin" Haines, and Josiah Constable, prior to Nancy Piles' death, it mentions "ORPHANS" of Nancy Piles. So this makes me believe that Rector Piles had another sibling, and this makes me think that (John Piles) born in who also stayed with the Haines family under the (1850 U.S. Census) has to be related to my Rector Piles, somehow, if not his younger brother... And, I'm sure that, Captain. John H. Piles, (b) August 27th, 1832, was also related to Rector Piles, too, and was probably a cousin. Because it would make sense for Rector Piles to want to serve in the same unit/company (18th Virginia Regiment) under the watchful eye of his relative, Captain. John H. Piles, so that John H. Piles could help keep an eye out for his cousins, by having both Rector Piles, and John Piles, in his unit.

(Carrie Wade (Piles) Boone's Obituary):

Her Funeral Viewing Services were through Jones Funeral Home in Winchester, Va., and she's buried beside her late husband Joseph "Mack" Boone, at the Mount Hebron Cemetery, also located in Winchester, Va.
(Here is some more PILES Family information):
Carrie's (Father) Rector Piles, was born on December 8, 1832, in either Oldtown, Maryland, or in Hampshire Co., "Old" Virginia (West Virginia), the son of Nancy PILES. His father is still unknown. But, a lady named (Sandra Neidholdt, with LDS Genealogy Research) told me years ago, that she believes (Rector Piles) mother (Nancy Piles) was the daughter of (Zachariah Piles Sr., and Hannah Mitchel), but, another person under the (Ancestry World Tree Project) submitted that (Rector Piles) was the son of (John H. Piles, Sr., and Susan Elizabeth Ruckman). But, here's where it gets interesting... While my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather (Rector Piles) was serving in the U.S. Confederacy Army, under (Captain. John H. Piles), I do believe "RECTOR" is indeed RELATED to this (Captain, John H. Piles) who by all means probably wanted (Rector Piles) to serve in his unit, so he could look out for young "Rector." But, prior to Rector's mother (Nancy Piles) death, she warded guardianship of her orphaned children, (which mentioned her son, Rector Piles), to be warded to (Reason/Rezin Haines) and (Josiah Constable), before her untimely death between (1849-1852), in Hampshire Co, W.Va. And, under the "Guardianship Court Papers," it said Nancy Pile's ORPHANS, so it's believed that Rector Piles may have had a sibling or two as well.
Carrie's father, Rector PILES/Pyles, was also a Confederate Army Soldier, during the "Civil War" (1861-1865). See his military records (below). Rector Piles died on May 6, 1907, in Kirby, Hampshire County, West Virginia. But, I also found another interesting lead, while doing research under the (Ancestry World Tree Project), I found the following information (John E. PILES, as the (son of Jacob PILES Sr., and Christinia (Francisco). And, that, (John E. PILES) was (b) May 8th, 1795, in Giles Co, Va. And, he married (Nancy J. (Bliss), who was (b) abt. 1808. Then, in (June 2020) I did the (Ancestry DNA Kit), which after I got my results back, ANCESTRY estimated that (Rector Piles) father was (Benjamin Piles) the son of (Zachariah Piles & Hannah Mitchel). But, if this is so, why would he leave (Rector Piles) an "Orphan," regarding Rector's Mother (Nancy Piles) Guardianship, in (1852); when I found (Benjamin Piles, married a a Martha Chapman) living down the street from Rector Piles "who was staying with John "Jefferson" Haines, under the (1850) U.S. Census. I do believe that (Rector Piles) and (Benjamin Piles) are indeed RELATED, but, "HOW?" So, this just makes our PILES research even harder... The (Question) is: WHICH ONE of these (John H. PILES "son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Benjamin PILEs, also a son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy PILES) said to also be a "daughter" of (Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy J. BLISS Piles, "who married (John E. PILES, "son of Jacob PILES and Christinia (Francisco); are the right parantage of "our" RECTOR PILES/Pyles?

Plus, it also said that men signing up for the "Civil War," having their own horse, were enlisted into the "Mounted Infantry Regiment."

W.Va. Present as of March 1st, 1863 and

at Cumberland, Maryland. Light complexion,

Cemetery, in Hardy Co, W.Va.
(Also Noted) Also listed in the same book is: Private, John H. Piles, Co. B., (b) August 15th, 1837. Enlisted: October 13th, 1862, in Hampshire Co, W.Va. AWOL as of March 1st, 1863. He claimed $ 3,000., for a bay mare "KIA" (Killed In Action) in Winchester, Va., dated September 5th, 1864. He (d) Dec. 5th, 1910. Buried at Mount Zion Cemetery near Augusta, W.Va. Also listed in the same book is: Captain. John H. Piles, Co. K., [the same one that Rector Piles served in], (b) Aug. 27th, 1832. Enlisted: October 20th, 1862 in Hampshire Co, W.Va. Appointed 1st Lt., on December 3rd, 1862. Present as of March 1st, 1863 and October 31st, 1864. Resigned on January 26th, 1865, (no reason stated).
(My Noted Comments): Is the Private, John H. Piles born on August 15th, 1837 (the same John Piles who was 13, under the same Census, (who was living with a Joseph Haines, just a few houses away from John "Jefferson" Haines (whom my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather Rector Piles was living with), a few houses away from a Reason "Reazin" Haines [who was warded guardianship over Rector Piles, prior to his mother, Nancy Piles' death in (1849)], all living in Hampshire Co, Va., be the younger brother, to my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather, Rector Piles? Because, on the "Guardianship" paperwork regarding "Nancy Piles" warding "Guardianship" to both Reason "Reazin" Haines, and Josiah Constable, prior to Nancy Piles' death, it mentions "ORPHANS" of Nancy Piles. So this makes me believe that Rector Piles had another sibling, and this makes me think that (John Piles) born in who also stayed with the Haines family under the (1850 U.S. Census) has to be related to my Rector Piles, somehow, if not his younger brother... And, I'm sure that, Captain. John H. Piles, (b) August 27th, 1832, was also related to Rector Piles, too, and was probably a cousin. Because it would make sense for Rector Piles to want to serve in the same unit/company (18th Virginia Regiment) under the watchful eye of his relative, Captain. John H. Piles, so that John H. Piles could help keep an eye out for his cousins, by having both Rector Piles, and John Piles, in his unit.

(Also Noted) Due to a freak accident "while hanging up
laundry during the wintertime." Carrie slipped on some ice, and had injured her left leg; (causing infection to sit in), and sadly had to have her leg partly removed. My Great Aunt Dorothy Ann (Dot) said Carrie was probably in her mid-to-late "70's," when she lost her leg. And, that Carrie's almost legally blind husband, Joseph McNelion "Mack" Boone (who had lost the vision in his left eye, due to falling into a tree branch, while out hunting); and he was losing his sight in his other eye, so he didn't see Carrie laying on the ground "for hours," until it was too late and infection had set in. The family said poor Joseph felt so guilty for not being able to help her, that he fell into a deep depression and passed away before she did.
(Carrie Wade (Piles) Boone's Obituary):
Heading: Mrs. Joseph Boone
Mrs. Carrie Wade Piles Boone, 86, died at the home of her daughter, Bertha Snapp. Mrs. Boone was born in Inkerman, W.Va., on March 21st, 1880, the daughter of the late Rector and Ellen Saville Piles. She married Joseph M. Boone on Nov. 9th, 1897, in Moorefield, W.Va. She was a member of the Second Opequon Presbyterian Church. She is survived by the following children: Cecil Boone of Nain, Va; Marvin Boone of Winchester, Va; Nelson Boone of Nain, Va; Elmer Boone of Hamdon, Connecticut; and Mrs. Snapp of Grace Street (in Winchester, Va); 30 grandchildren; 44 great-grandchildren; and 8 great-great-grandchildren. A son, Marshall Boone preceded her in death. Her Funeral Viewing Services were through Jones Funeral Home in Winchester, Va., and she's buried beside her late husband Joseph "Mack" Boone, at the Mount Hebron Cemetery, also located in Winchester, Va.
(Here is some more PILES Family information):
Carrie's (Father) Rector Piles, was born on December 8, 1832, in either Oldtown, Maryland, or in Hampshire Co., "Old" Virginia (West Virginia), the son of Nancy PILES. His father is still unknown. But, a lady named (Sandra Neidholdt, with LDS Genealogy Research) told me years ago, that she believes (Rector Piles) mother (Nancy Piles) was the daughter of (Zachariah Piles Sr., and Hannah Mitchel), but, another person under the (Ancestry World Tree Project) submitted that (Rector Piles) was the son of (John H. Piles, Sr., and Susan Elizabeth Ruckman). But, here's where it gets interesting... While my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather (Rector Piles) was serving in the U.S. Confederacy Army, under (Captain. John H. Piles), I do believe "RECTOR" is indeed RELATED to this (Captain, John H. Piles) who by all means probably wanted (Rector Piles) to serve in his unit, so he could look out for young "Rector." But, prior to Rector's mother (Nancy Piles) death, she warded guardianship of her orphaned children, (which mentioned her son, Rector Piles), to be warded to (Reason/Rezin Haines) and (Josiah Constable), before her untimely death between (1849-1852), in Hampshire Co, W.Va. And, under the "Guardianship Court Papers," it said Nancy Pile's ORPHANS, so it's believed that Rector Piles may have had a sibling or two as well.
Carrie's father, Rector PILES/Pyles, was also a Confederate Army Soldier, during the "Civil War" (1861-1865). See his military records (below). Rector Piles died on May 6, 1907, in Kirby, Hampshire County, West Virginia. But, I also found another interesting lead, while doing research under the (Ancestry World Tree Project), I found the following information (John E. PILES, as the (son of Jacob PILES Sr., and Christinia (Francisco). And, that, (John E. PILES) was (b) May 8th, 1795, in Giles Co, Va. And, he married (Nancy J. (Bliss), who was (b) abt. 1808. Then, in (June 2020) I did the (Ancestry DNA Kit), which after I got my results back, ANCESTRY estimated that (Rector Piles) father was (Benjamin Piles) the son of (Zachariah Piles & Hannah Mitchel). But, if this is so, why would he leave (Rector Piles) an "Orphan," regarding Rector's Mother (Nancy Piles) Guardianship, in (1852); when I found (Benjamin Piles, married a a Martha Chapman) living down the street from Rector Piles "who was staying with John "Jefferson" Haines, under the (1850) U.S. Census. I do believe that (Rector Piles) and (Benjamin Piles) are indeed RELATED, but, "HOW?" So, this just makes our PILES research even harder... The (Question) is: WHICH ONE of these (John H. PILES "son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Benjamin PILEs, also a son of Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy PILES) said to also be a "daughter" of (Zachariah PILES & Hannah Mitchel), or (Nancy J. BLISS Piles, "who married (John E. PILES, "son of Jacob PILES and Christinia (Francisco); are the right parantage of "our" RECTOR PILES/Pyles?
Carrie's (Mother) Maria Ellen Saville, was born on March 21st, 1836, in Hampshire Co, West Virginia, the daughter of Isaac Saville and Delilah Asbury. Maria died on February 5th, 1907, in Kirby, Hampshire Co, West Virginia.

(Also Noted) Also listed in the same book is: Private, John H. Piles, Co. B., (b) August 15th, 1837. Enlisted: October 13th, 1862, in Hampshire Co, W.Va. AWOL as of March 1st, 1863. He claimed $ 3,000., for a bay mare "KIA" (Killed In Action) in Winchester, Va., dated September 5th, 1864. He (d) Dec. 5th, 1910. Buried at Mount Zion Cemetery near Augusta, W.Va. Also listed in the same book is: Captain. John H. Piles, Co. K., [the same one that Rector Piles served in], (b) Aug. 27th, 1832. Enlisted: October 20th, 1862 in Hampshire Co, W.Va. Appointed 1st Lt., on December 3rd, 1862. Present as of March 1st, 1863 and October 31st, 1864. Resigned on January 26th, 1865, (no reason stated).
(My Noted Comments): Is the Private, John H. Piles born on August 15th, 1837 (the same John Piles who was 13, under the same Census, (who was living with a Joseph Haines, just a few houses away from John "Jefferson" Haines (whom my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather Rector Piles was living with), a few houses away from a Reason "Reazin" Haines [who was warded guardianship over Rector Piles, prior to his mother, Nancy Piles' death in (1849)], all living in Hampshire Co, Va., be the younger brother, to my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather, Rector Piles? Because, on the "Guardianship" paperwork regarding "Nancy Piles" warding "Guardianship" to both Reason "Reazin" Haines, and Josiah Constable, prior to Nancy Piles' death, it mentions "ORPHANS" of Nancy Piles. So this makes me believe that Rector Piles had another sibling, and this makes me think that (John Piles) born in who also stayed with the Haines family under the (1850 U.S. Census) has to be related to my Rector Piles, somehow, if not his younger brother... And, I'm sure that, Captain. John H. Piles, (b) August 27th, 1832, was also related to Rector Piles, too, and was probably a cousin. Because it would make sense for Rector Piles to want to serve in the same unit/company (18th Virginia Regiment) under the watchful eye of his relative, Captain. John H. Piles, so that John H. Piles could help keep an eye out for his cousins, by having both Rector Piles, and John Piles, in his unit.

(Other family facts): My Grandma Katherine "Lucille" (Snapp) Newlin-Crego, and my Mother (Sandra Fay NEWLIN Brooks-Wilson) told me that my Great-Grandma Carrie enjoyed crocheting and making "Dollies," as well as doing Embroidery and making homemade handkerchiefs, too. And, that my Great-Grandma Carrie also loved to talk and laugh a lot, too... So maybe that's where I got my talkative gene from. "Hee-Hee."
