      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]
