Hello: I am new to the list! Thanks for allowing me to join! My ancestors are from the Holston River area of Washington, Smyth, Tazewell Co, and other areas nearby. Some of my surnames include Talbert, Gaulding, Henegar, Denny, Pratt, McReynolds, Peery, Landreth, two Taylor lines, and many more! Would love to converse with anyone interested!
Thanks, Mike in WV

A few years ago I looked into my family history and found that there are Witt’s all over the South and up into the North. I was very surprised at the number of Witt’s in and around the Roanoke area.

Hello: I have one Witt in my file.  Charlie Brittian Taylor b 1905 m Uva Witt. Charlie was the son of James Charles Taylor Jr m Sallie Thressa Denny ( my maternal great grandparents!). Small world, isn’t it?

You can never go far without finding someone that knows someone you know or that may be related to someone that is related to you it seems.  :-)

Hello. I am new to this forum as well. I am particularly interested in any information about the Arden/Ardin/Harden/Hardin families of Smyth/Washington/Russell Counties. I am a descendent of Abraham Arden.
