NW Okie's Corner

As we scour the historic newspaper for bits of genealogy in search of our ancestry, we found the following in the historic American newspapers for Highland Recorder, out of Monterey, Highland county, Virginia, 16th, 23rd & 30th of August 1907, concerning Martin Dever (dec'd ) and a public filing of his administrator, Charles P. Jones vs. Samuel G. Dever and others.

The object of the suit was to have ascertained, the proper heirs and distributes of Martin Dever, dec'd, and to have his estate settled under the control and protection of the court.

It reads as follows: "And it appearing from affidavit filed that Walter Gwin, Signora Warwick, John Andrew Moore, I. Price Moore, Harry S. Gum. Paul L. Gum, the unknown heirs of Lee Dever, Dennis Dever, Alice Barnett, the unknown heirs of George Lantz dec'd, the unknown heir of Minnie Fultz dec'd, and Hugh Dever were all nonresidents of the state of Virginia. It was ordered that they do appear within fifteen days after due publication and do what is necessary to protect their interests. Teste" J. C. Matheny, Clerk and Chas. P. Jones & son p.q.

Signora Warwick, as mentioned in an earlier newsletter, was my great grandmother on the father's mother's side of the family. Walter Gwin was my Great Grand Uncle, and Signora's older brother.

Good Night & Good Luck researching your ancestral roots!   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
