Westfall Family

Zachariah Westfall was another of the pupils in the first Buckhannon school, along with Thomas Carney and David Casto.

He came from Hacker's Creek to Mill Creek in 1827, and settled on Buffalo Lick Run of Tug Fork. (Perhaps he was a son of James Westfall, of Beverly.)

He had several sons, among them Andrew, Owen, Clark, John, and George. [continues]

Charles Rector, 74, m, farmer

From Darrell Rector:
Charles was the first Rector to come over the mountains from Fauquier Co, VA. He served as high sheriff of Wood Co, WV, which at the time in the late 1840 or early 1850 comprised Pleasant and Wirt counties. In 1848, he was a member of the first county court of Wirt County, I have the feeling after some thought, that Charles and Sarah are buried out in Wirt Co.
Aunt Mamie (Mrs. W.H. Carney of Findlay, OH) says Charles Rector and his wife Sarah Ruth Rust had four children, Stephen Steptoe, Levin Ludwell, Susan who married a Kyger and Sally who married Smith whose son founded the WH Smith Hardware in Parkersburg, WV.

Southern Methodist Itinerant.

CHARLES RECTOR was born April 24th, 1776, and departed this life, at the residence of his son, L. Rector, in Jackson county, Va., June 26th, 1859. Father Rector joined the church under the ministry of Rev. John A. Power, some thirty-five years ago and lived a consistent member until his death.
The writer visited him during his last illness, and found him waiting patiently for the Master to call him from labor to refreshment. We have never seen a christian more fully resigned to the will of God.
He has left a companion, (who cannot see the light of the material sun, but thank God, she can behold by faith, the Sun of Righteousness,) a number of children and friends to mourn, but thank God, we mourn not as those who have no hope. JEREMIAH FARMER.

Athens County Family History - 1987
Great great grandfather Andrew Parker, originally from England, came to New York where he married the mother of his son William. We do not know her name. William was born in 1811 in eastern New York and brought by his father to Athens county, OH, in 1816. We do not know who else was in the party that came by wagon train to Ohio. At one point William, age five, got tired of riding and got out to walk. When they saw he was no longer in sight, they went back to hunt for him and found him about a mile behind, walking unconcernedly along following the wagon tracks.
In 1825, Andrew married Theodocia Blake, the widow of Comfort Blake. Her maiden name was Collins and she was the dughter of a fisherman off Cape Cod, Mass. William Parker married Theodocia's daughter, Lucy in 1838. They had 8 chiildren. . .

5 children with 1st wife, Anna G. Brock who had twins in 1895 and died 1895

Henry Clay (the twin that lived) died in 1936 in Summit County, Ohio, in a car/train collision. When his twin and his mother died in 1895, my grandmother, Edna, took on the job of being a mother to Henry. When Henry and his son were killed in the accident, it was devastating for her, as he was more like a son to her than a brother.
