Thanks both for the help. I await the response to Johnny's query to Robinson Run.

Johnny when in 1901 did that marriage take place?

This is getting exciting now into finding out more on Thomas.

Hello Ben,

John mentioned the WW2 draft for James Sutherland, I am not sure if you have it but these are the details if you have'nt:

Name: James Sutherland
Birth Date: 15 Dec 1888
Birth Place: Allegheny Looks like McBonald  ??
Residence: Ohio, West Virginia
Wife:- Mary Sutherland.
Employers Name:- Robert Littlehales. Elm Grove. ......
Place of Employment:- No 3 Mine. Triopdelphia. Ohio

Added: I was interrupted for almost two hours!

Great find, Dettori.

James Sutherland was born in McDonald. To clarify the draft information, because it is garbled and misspelled: James Sutherland in 1942 was living in Ohio County, West Virginia. Sounds kind of crazy. But Ohio County, West Virginia  borders Washington County, Pennsylvania. Probably only 20 miles from the City of Washington to Triadelphia, West Virginia, where James was employed as a coal miner.

Ben: The marriage between Ellen Wilson and John Saix took place March 7, 1901.

If you want to go to the website where I found the marriage, go here: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~florian/index.htm

Hello John.

Hope it was a nice interruption 

Hello Ben.

I am a little unsure if you have all you need on your families. Do you need the Saix Census or have you got them in 1920 and 1930 ?

[johnnyboy]

Hi Dettori: Could you post the Saix census details. Maybe I'll see something helpful.

Ben: Here is a quote about the church in McDonald whose pastor married Ellen Wilson and John Saix.

"The First United Presbyterian congregation was organized February 26. 1876. It built a frame church which was used until 1896, when the present edifice was erected at a cost of $23,000 and the old building sold to the Colored Baptist congregation. Rev. W. D. Irons is the present pastor."  (from about 1926).

If you Google "W.D. Irons", you'll find a lot about McDonald. It makes looking for these folks a little easier.

Regards,
John

Hi

I have the Saix censuses but could anyone post me the full details of Elizabeth Sutherland in the 1910 census with her daughter Mary Saix?

Ben

[coombs]

Mary was born in October 1884 according to the 1900 census meaning she married in March 1901 aged 16 and a half. A young age.
