Hi,
These people are my family! E-mail me if you would like info I have on them.
Rosa Bell Pettry (we called her Rosie) & Willie Estep were my great grandparents. They are both deceased now. Willie was born in 1897 & died in 1932 so his headstone says, my grandfaher disagreed with this, he said he was born in 1900 & died in 1928. He was out hunting, went up a tree after his game & had a heart attack, when he fell his foot got caught in a fork in the tree. He was found about a week later hangin upside down from the tree. His dog never left his side. Rosie never remarried. She was born 10/11/1901 & died on 11/20/1995. She died at CAMC Hospital in Charleston after falling in her home & breaking her arm. She was buried on Nov. 24, 1995 at Pineview Cemetary in Orgas, WV. She lived most of her life in Joe's Ck., in Comfort, WV.
Rosie & Willie were married in Winifrede in Kanawha County, WV on 11/2/1918. I have lots more info on their children, grandchildren, great grandchilen & g-g-grandchildren if you want it. I have pictures of Rosie & some of her kids. I also have the last picture ever taken of her & a generation pic of her, her son Carl, her grandson Eddie, g-g-grandson Carl Ray & her g-g-g-grandson Brent. Anyone interested just let me know.
