"I am looking for info on my GGGgrandparents Job and Nancy West who
came from VA around 1820. They had 8 children all of whom married in
Morgan co after 1820 1) John married Jane Hardesty 2) Charlotte
married William Burris 3) Nathaniel married Ann Essex 4) Samuel
married Catherine Anderson 5) Ann married Enos Dean 6) Cornelious 7)
James J 8) Margaret married John Crawford.

Charlotte West and William Burris are my GGgrandparents. They resided
in Vinton Co. They had at least 1 child, Emery Burris who married
Hannah Ward in 1853. They had 12 children, one of them being John
Henry Burris who married Ozellia Smith. They were my Ggrandparents. I
am interested in who Hannah Wards parents might have been, and
anything on the West and Burris lines. If anything is familiar please
email.
Thanks
Teresa "

"Hi, I am sorry to be so slow in answering your email, I finally went
through some stuff I have on West and Deen or Dean, I don't see
Matty. The one thing that strikes me odd is that my Martha "West"
Slater, and her brother Joab or Job West came to Ohio in the very
early 1800's, Job stood up for the Martha and David Slater marriage
, and they married in Loudon Co. Va. in 1800, they
went on to Belmont and Guernsey counties and eventually
ended up in Center township, Morgan Co. Ohio. Daughter of Martha
West Slater and David Slater, also married a Jesse Dean or
Deen in 1840 in Morgan Co. I have been unable to get any information
from a Deen or Dean ancestor so am unable to link you up on such
scanty info, I do have a few West notes and very little Dean info
other than the Martha and Jesse Deen family. I would not be a bit
surprised if there is some relationship between your family and mine.
In the 1820 Ohio Census at Morgan county I could find Joab West and
a John West households being 76 and 89, looks like Joab is the older
being 45 and up where John is in the 16-26 age, perhaps son of Joab.
These are both at Center township. If you would care to send any
other information I would be glad to compare with what I have and if
I should find a link would pass on any info. I do know the Dean,
Deen, family lived in Hocking county Ohio after they married, I
believe it was Starr township. I don't have the Jesse Dean parents
names, some of the Dean children were married to Atkison, Stalter,
and Sanner or Sonner. If this rings a bell let me know.
Susan Ren"
