However, Jane Latimer married John Logan in 1849, so I suspect this one was the younger Jane. Am also assuming that Jane is really Margaret Jane, although she may be a second wife. George's mother is Margaret, per JCMR. I am making the assumption that Mary and James belong in this family, James lives next door and there is no other Latimore/Latimer family in the area. | Family F5998

This would make her born about 1760 This sketch taken from "Pioneers of Jackson County", by John House, it appears in the section "Sycamore Creek" Ables Family From the forks of Sycamore, the Parsonses at one time or another, owned the valley of the right branch up for over two and a half miles, or as far as the site of the Centennial Church and school house. They were probably the first permanent settlers of the lower Sycamore valley. About 18–, Martin Ables came from Greene County, Pennsylvania, and located about a mile and a half up on Sycamore, at what is now known as the Straley farm, where he made the first improvement, though it is probable Parsons had lived for a time at the wide bottoms above at an earlier date. Two sons came with him and lived somewhere near Sandy. He is said to have had a horse mill, which was patronized by the pioneers of Sandy. Some of his descendants are still living about Ravenswood. Alexander (commonly known as Alec) Ables, married Hannah Staats, daughter of Old Abram Staats, of near Evans. He got a piece of land at the farm now owned by William Carney, building his house across on a knoll near the mouth of two runs which here flow into Sycamore. Here was born on January 5th, 1831, his daughter, Anna, who is now residing at Reedy, in Roane County (Mrs. William Stewart). He lived a while at the mouth of Sycamore. Margaret Ables, a sister of Alec, married William Staats, a son of Abraham, and brother of Alec's wife. He lived on Sycamore for a time, and then emigrated to Indiana. Late in the thirties, a man named Hamilton bought the farm now known as the Connolly farm, about a mile above town, there was a camp ground laid out by the Methodist people in the woods in the Connolly bottoms. Here they continued to hold camp meetings annually until the ground was cleared, when the camp ground, with its paraphernalia of sheds, cook rooms, seats, etc., were removed to the flat at the head of the run where the road crosses from Sycamore to Station Camp. Here the meetings were kept up until the division of the church, in 1844. This was locally known as the "Seedtick" camp ground, from the immense quantities of a small white insect, known as seedtick, by which the leaves and brush of the thickets were inhabited. These, with the still well known "Chiggers" and woodticks, were a pest to the backwoodsman. Where the run just mentioned enters the creek, another large run enters from the right, which heads a the Short Bend schoolhouse. At a spot near the mouth of this run was the site of the Ables cabin. Mr. William Staats, of near Reedy, informs me that he remembers when small, perhaps about 1846, going with his father when he took his wool to the carding machine. They stopped with his aunt, Hannah Ables, and she sent a son, Alfred, to a neighbor, on the adjoining farm, the house was by the creek on the Carney farm– possibly the same one torn down about 1903 – for a cabbage head, on which errand he went also. The people, he remembers, were German, the old lady talking volubly in that tongue. There is on record in the Clerk's office at Ripley, a deed made January 30th, 1834, wherein Martin Ables, in consideration of the sum of $200.00 and the maintenance of himself and wife, Margaret Ables, conveyed to Alexander Ables, three hundred acres on Sycamore, being the upper part of the tract of four hundred acres bought by him of John Leonard, and by Leonard of John Swan. As a means of easy reference, the following condensed information is given: Martin Ables (wife's name was not learned) came from Greene County, Pennsylvania. His children were Alexander, married Hannah Staats. He died in Illinois. Jacob. Margaret married William Staats. There was a family named Ables who moved from Greene County, Pennsylvania, to Guernsey County, Ohio, about 1805, or earlier. | Family F2240

Bord was a son of Patrick Bord, the pioneer of Reedy, being 4 years old at the time of the emigration from Greene County, PA, to the wilds of western VA. He lived on this farm several years, and was one of the most ingenious blacksmiths, gunsmiths and mechanics ever in Jackson county. It is said he experimented a long time with the problem of perpetual motion, and there used to be a story extant that he once constructed a flying machine, withwhich he rose from the top of a neighboring hill and soared majestically over Ripley, unfortunately breaking his machine. From a habit of always expressing assent to a proposition by a phrase "that's a fact, sure", he was known every where as "Fact Tom" or Fact-sure Tom bord", which served to distinguish him from two others of the same name. He was born in November 1811, and died in the summer of 1869. | Family F1300

Land records in Jackson County indicate that land was transferred back and forth between Catherine and Spencer Adams several times. This and the fact that it appears that the George Adams living with her in 1850 was his son, leads to the assumption that she was his mother-in-law. | Family F5687

W. MARKS Nephew M S W 15 WV John House: John Greenleaf, his son, was born on the third day of August, 1816, and was sixteen years old at the time of the migration to Gilmer County (then Lewis County), and lived at Normantown nine years. He married Sarah Norman, a daughter of James Norman, for whom the village of Normantown is said to have derived its name. She was a sister of "Sis" Ludwick's mother. In May, 1843, John Greenleaf moved to a farm of over one hundred acres he had bought at Gay, on Elk Fork of Mill Creek. There was some improvement on the land when Greenleaf moved to it, but he did not tell me at the interview I had with him one day in July, 1904, of whom he bought. Being nearly eighty eight years old, and very frail, the old man's memory was bad, and having lost his land recently and been left in his old age without a home, his mind was affected, or, as he expressed it, 'he was "shook up" in his head'. The first summer he lived on Elk, he made a light crop of corn on account of the lateness in the year of his arrival. He worked for some of the neighbors to get grain for bread. David Litton, John Bord, and John Tolley were among his neighbors when he came. He helped John Bord, who lived on Frozen Camp, where Miles Bord now lives, to reap his wheat crop that summer. When Greenleaf came to Elk Fork, he moved on pack horses. There was at that time an abundance of game in Gilmer County, but in Jackson County, it was already becoming scarce. There were some deers and a few wild turkeys yet. While moving, he passed a night with William R. Goff, long one of the leading citizens of Spencer. He was then for five years a resident of the Goff homestead, had a small improvement, and a family of four children. Uncle Hi Goff, of Tanner's Run, was then a babe of two months of age. It is said there were then only two other families living at Spencer, those of Samuel Tanner and Samuel Miller. John Greenleaf was a minister of the Gospel, Southern Methodist Church. He was Justice of the Peace for twenty two years, by appointment of the Governor, and four years President of the County Court, elected by the people. He retired late in the 80's. John Greenleaf and Henderson Harper were about the same age. They died about the same time, and were buried the same day. Elliot (C.E.) Greenleaf, of Elk Fork, one time assessor of Jackson County, was a son of John. He was born in Gilmer County a year before his parents moved to Elk Fork. Beulah Greenleaf, who married U.S. detective, Dan Cunningham, was a daughter of Elliott. Other children of John Greenleaf were: J. W. Greenleaf, died unmarried. S. E. Greenleaf, of near Red Knob, Roane County. "Rua" Greenleaf, married Charles L. Bradley. Caroline Greenleaf married John M. Bradley. Riley Greenleaf was the oldest son, lived near Red Knob on Wolf Camp. Ben T. Greenleaf was John's youngest son, died in the asylum, November 7th, 1910. | Family F1259
