Note 5 Confusion about which "Catherin" Galloway was the real Sarah Katharin (Kate)
(Galloway) Lambert. She was ONE of Anna Eliza (Galloway) Myers's sisters tho
-- per Emmett.
Note 6 date from tombstone
Note 7 date from tombstone
Note 8 Note in bible: "Blessed are they that dwell in the Lord."
Note 9 I have been perplexed by the two girls anmed Catherine that were James
Maidson galloway's daughters. It didn't make sense to me and I remembered
seeing somewhere a tombstone inscription in Hampshire County, WV for two
young Galloway girls. So, I found the cemetery listing in the library and
made a short road trip to the cemetery. It's in Slanesville, WV (Hampshire
County) just about 30 minutes across the Virginia line near Winchester, VA.
It was only about a 40 minute drive.
In the old Salem Church Cemetery there, I found a tombstone with the
following inscription:
Galloway
Susan V.
d. 9/27/1862
11 yrs 6 mos 11 days
Mary E.
d. 8/23/1862
5 yrs 10 mos 25 days
d/o Madison & Sarah
That would make Susan's birthday 16-Mar-1851 and Mary's 29-Sep-1856.
Some old written records that I have reviewed indicated that James Madison
(and he did go by Madison) left Snickersille in Loudoun County in early 1861
or 1862 and went to Hampshire County near Romney (Slanesville is close to
Romney) and stayed there until about 1865 when he returned to Loudoun County.
The notes also referred to a daughter Catherine who died there and was
buried there.
I'm now convinced that two daughters actually died up there and neither were
named Catherine. I'm going to tentatively change my information to reflect
this. Robert A. Ferrebee
