Hedrick, age 21, born in VA, laborer and Martha Holcomb, age 16, born in VA,
hireling. Enumerated under Pleasant Twp.

All of this research by Amanda Arbogast Forbes.

Following the death of his father, George and his brother Nichodemus
apparently followed the headwaters of the Elk River down into Nicholas Co.,
VA/WV or Braxton Co., VA/WV (now Clay Co.) to the Beechy and Sycamore Creeks
area. Nichodemus settled the Beechy Creek area, George the adjacent Sycamore
Creek area sometime during the period 1842-1847.

Notes:

Two young Waybright children listed on 1850 census with her mother's (Edith
Ketterman Arbogast) family. Emily not listed. Highly probable she died before
1850. Notes from Amanda Arbogast Forbes research. Marriage license to Joshua
Teter recorded in Pendleton Co. with Nichodemus as surety.

Remarriage of Joshua Teter on 17 Mar 1849 to Mary Harper helps confirm Emily's
death before 1850, narrowing it down to late 1848 to early 1849. Unable to
find any children of the marriage of Emily and Joshua.

From Glenn Huffman research papers, Emily and Cyrus had one son by 1840, could
this child, b. 1839\1840, be the unplaced Harrison Waybright living with Daniel
and Rachel (Arbogast) Waybright in 1850?

Emily married Cyrus Waybright on 6 Dec 1838 in Pendleton Co., Va/Wv. Cyrus was born on 23 ??? 1820; died about 1844. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Confirmation from Arlene (Channell) Swecker family group record on Moses and
Margaret. Arlene notes that Moses died of cancer at the home of his daughter,
Eva Jane Channell, near Valley Head, WV. He became ill while in jail for
shooting Jefferson Simmons. Moses and Margaret had four children before they
married. Margaret died when her daughter Margaret Alice was born. The
children were raised by friends and relatives and were never close. Moses, Sr.
was married to Margaret's mother so they were living in same household for
some time. This area was in the mountains near Valley Head, not too far from
Swecker Ridge. Jefferson Simmons is a brother of Chesley Simmons who married
Moses' sister, Sarah Elizabeth Arbogast.

According to Jean (Snyder) Loudin, the family blamed Jefferson Simmons saying
he caused the shooting by Moses. If Moses had only shot him once he would have
been acquitted, but the fatal second shot was the reason for his conviction.

Moses married Margaret Eva Channell on 27 Apr 1874 in Beverly, Randolph Co., Wv. Margaret was born in 1857 in Randolph Co., Va; died on 23 Apr 1882 in Valley Head, Randolph Co., Wv. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
