Notes:

born in a log cabin. Joye Boardman I suspects this was the home of Fullen's grandfather, Samuel Sandefur who lived in Rich Valley.

In the 1930's Floy & Fullen moved to West Virginia where he worked as a blacksmith for the mines. Their children were born in McDowell County, WV.  Fullen's father became ill and ask them to return to the farm and, of course being the eldest son,  they moved back to Poor Valley. Fullen was very good with horses and a little afraid of an automobile.  One story told about him; he said "When you tell a horse to halt it does, the car just keeps going." Fullen had been in 2 serious car accidents which explains his fear of the automobile.

Notes:

At age 37, Margaret married her brother-in-law, William Nelson, 42 years old at time of marriage. William's first wife was Joseph Callahan's sister, Margaret Callahan and they had three children. The Callahan name is spelled in early records as both Callahan and Callahan. Margaret Worley was in mourning for all of her life to the extent she wore only dark colors.  A younger sister had drowned and at that time Margaret went into mourning. She lived on the Lee Highway and as a widow, raised her children by working as a housekeeper for the McKinnley Family in Emory, VA.

1920 WASHINGTON CO. VA Census states: Maggie Worley Callahan Nelson states her father, David Worley, was born in Illinois.

Family tradition says this baby is buried beside Joseph Callahan at Old Glade Cemetery, Washington Co. VA. This is probably the case as two graves were bought and Margaret is buried in the New Part of the Cemetery.
