Notes:

Ref: WBH; Evelyn Beard (mother of WBH) said that Henry was what would now be
called an evangelist. Monroe Beard (brother of WBH) letter 28 February 1938,
from Chris Arbogast (Adam/Benjamin): Henry was shot to death by the Southern
army and Benjamin's other four sons came across to the Union army. Eli Buzzard
was killed on the same night.

Ref: Jim and Rita Wooddell records, January 1994, in February 1862, the
Pocahontas County Court offered a $500 reward for the arrest and conviction of
the murderers, Al Tuning, Jack Tuning, and ____ Cunningham.

Henry married Anna Warwick on 4 Dec 1833 in Pocahontas Co., Va/Wv. Anna was born on 22 Aug 1817 in , Pocahontas , West Virginia, United States; died on 27 Sep 1891 in , , Randolph Co.*, Wv; was buried in Catholic Cem, Pickens, Randolph Co., Wv. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Randolph Co. death records, died 1891 age 76, wife of Henry, daughter of D. M.
and Mary. Confirmation from family records of Sylvia (Taylor) Gum of Green
Bank, WV, in file.

Although Randolph death records show her parents as D. M. and Mary, they are
almost certainly incorrect. The death was reported by her father (unlikely).
The most logical explanation is that her death was reported by her son D. M.
Perhaps he reported the birth of his daughter Mamie (born in May 1891 in
Randolph) and death of his mother in September of 1891 at the same time and the
clerk simply duplicated the information.
