Re: Burning of Barnesville, Reynolds Co.
Jack, thanks for looking that up. I knew that M.B. had the farm but had always thought that he got it after Hiram died and Anna and her kids moved down on Logan. I'll dig on that further. There are a couple of farms on Dickson Branch that I think I can get access to the original abstract of title. I love the old hand written deeds. I have never been able to locate the full text of the JJ Chilton story. I have only seen excerpts of it. Where can I find the full text? I'm way behind where I would like to be on factual data for this era.
Jim
