Gwinn Family of Round Bottom, West Virginia

"My name is Elaine Yanak. This is a picture of the house at Roundbottom. I live in St. Albans, WV. My mother's maiden name was GWINN and her family is having their annual family reunion here in WV this Saturday. I'm not attending but I was looking for a ;Gwinn family crest and found your site.

I think that we are related from years and years ago. Robert GWINN is listed in our family tree as coming from Wales, but it does not have a year listed. It says he married Jean KINCAID and supposedly my great-great-great-great grandfather was his son Samuel who birth year is listed as 1745 and died in 1839. His wife is listed as Elizabeth Lockridge GRAHAM, but in your information this might be incorrect. Is it Simon that married her? Please let me know.

The GWINN Family has a site listed as gwinnreunion.org. Please check it out. There is a copy of a small book that one of my relations wrote and you may be able to hook up with some members of the family from the other side.

It would be great to hear from you. I'm now 50 years and my mother passed away 2 years ago this month.

This is a picture of the old home on the New River called Roundbottom. It is in what is now West Virginia. The house is gone but there is still a graveyard there. I know that this is another branch of your family, but I thought you might want to share what information you have with this side of the family. We may have some incorrect information. God Bless You." -- Elaine (Harford) Yanak, daughter of Leta Mae GWINN (daughter of Russell B.
