Sorry Mad4, there was some spam type stuff in a note just after your note and previous to my first one. Apparently, Joe and his assistants spotted it and took it off. Something about making money everytime some site was visited or something. It was of course, put on by the ubiquitous GUEST.

I'll hunt up my stuff tonight Kat and post it tomorrow.

Kat, you may try the WV Dept. of Archives and see if you can find some more info on your ancestor. Any idee where he served? Was he in the Shenandoah Campaign with the WV Second against General Jackson? I hope not! Any info like that you can provide for them will make the job easier Be prepared to spend a little money for an archival search. That WV guv'mint is a might poorly these days!
