Huge Wonderful selection!
Last weekend, June 26 and 27, my brother and I spent close
to 5 hours
transcribing headstone engravings at two Calhoun County, WV cemeteries.
Walking up one row and down the other, we took pictures of some that we
knew to be family. Because of the various spellings throughout the
history of the Kerby/Kirby family, we were very careful in making sure
we had the correct spelling for each individual and family. The names
were copied precisely as engraved on the stone. Unless otherwise noted,
spelling of spouses' last names is the same.
This was the first time I have been able to do any onsight research. I
spent close to 6 hours in the Calhoun County Public Library at
Grantsville. I could have spent 6 days and still not wanted to leave.
At any rate, I will be sending the results of that trip as I am able. I
hope all of you that haven't yet been able to walk the cemeteries where
your families lie are able to do so. I've heard people talk about the
feelings of family connection one gets from visiting cemeteries and
doing this kind of research. That feeling is so real.

In memory of John Kirby, who departed this life July 7, 1911.
Once again death has summoned a brother Odd Fellow. He has completed his work in

hand to
any one in distress. Therefore be it.
Resolved that Hur Lodge No. 358, in testimony of our loss, tender to the bereaved family
of our
deceased brother our sincere condolence in their deep afflictions.v And be it further
resolved that
a copy of these resolutions be sent to each of the county papers, and a copy to the
bereaved family
and a copy to be spread upon our minutes.
Respectfully Submitted. Wm J. Sturms. R. O. Haskins. J. D. Robinson. Committee.
