Charlotte,
I am not related to Gerald Cornett (That I know of? LOL).My grandmother was Janet M. Copen married Halford Cornett but had a brief affair after she divorced him. We just ended up with her married name (I suspect to hide it from her parents), so I'm actually a Myers (so yes I have experience with those spellings as well).My grandmother was the daughter of Marshall Copen and Eva Beulah Hopson, who was the son of Marshall Copen and Mirrian Susannah Larter, who was the son of George Wesley Copen and Mary Elizabeth Woodrum.
I've been doing genealogy for about 15 years and it has helped greatly that until recently I still had a couple of older Copen relatives to tell me stories.My great, great Uncle William Copen just died in 2006.
Question:The marriage record for William and Jane, is it the actual License or the register from the microfilm?I ask because I haven't seen anything but the register and the typed transcription.
I also have lots I am willing to share, many newspapers articles for the children of George Wesley and Mary Elizabeth.
Did you know Charlie killed William?
I'm currently trying to pinpoint the exact location of the cemetery they are buried in.They were buried in Venable Cemetery in Kanawha City but its now been covered with houses.Uncle Bill knew it's location because his mother Mamie Larter was buried there but I did not get the exact location before he died.I'm hoping his daughter knows where it is.They did not move most of the bodies so they just built the houses over them.Mary E. Woodrum Copen and her sister Victoria K. Woodrum Ullman were buried there.
How do you descend?
