I have been researching the ancestors of the Myer and Humphreys families of West Virginia and now have over 30,000 names in my files. I have traced most of our ancestors back to the late 1700's & early 1800's in WV, VA, MD & PA. Surnames include: Anderson, Anglin, Ankrom, Ash, Barber, Bland, Bodkin, Booth, Boughan, Brown, Cain, Childers, Collins, Conley, Cork, Cumberledge, Cummins, Davis, Duty, Fittro, Gain, Harold, Henckel, Hickman, Hill, Hinkle, Humphreys, Hudkins, Hudson, Hughes, Ingraham, Isner, Jackson, Jobes, Kirby, Kuhn, Lantz, Lowther, Lucas, McQuain, McQuirt, Middleton, Moore, Myer, Parrott, Peters, Price, Putnam, Ragan, Redden, Rexrode, Ridenour, Romine, Schoonover, Sellars, Slaven, Snider, Snook, Staley, Stalnaker, Stewart, Stuart, Stutler, Thomas, Tucker, Valent, Valenti, VanMeter, Vint, Waybright, Windon, Yerkey, York, Zane. Some of the lines have been traced back to the kings & queens of Europe. If you have any info on any of these families, I would appreciate hearing from you. I will share any info I have. Also, if any errors or omissions are seen, PLEASE let me know so that I can correct it.
