I keep running into dead ends... trying to correctly place my ggrandmother
with proper parents.
facts I have: Laura Virginia Bucklew born 18 April 1879, Portland
district,Preston County WV Father...Solomon H. Bucklew, mother....Mary
Martha Bucklew. Married (1) John Wakefield Young 7 children..Guy
Wesley, Lester Carnes, Joseph Solomon, Nellie, Junior Harry, Buckner
Wakefield, Donald Wade....Married (2) Walter H. Menear no children.
Died 28 Oct. 1966 buried Terra Alta preston County, WV

may also be true: had brother Roy who was awarded Carnigie medal for
heroism. Is perhaps niece to Sarah Basheba (called "Aunt Bashie") Bucklew
Sarah was married to John Bell and is also buried at Terra Alta between my
grandfather Joseph Solomon Young and my uncle, James Harold Young

Someone has to know the answers. Please check your records. The only
Solomon H. I can find is Solomon Hampton, He was born in 1871 making him too
young to be the right one.
