Greetings,
I am seeking info on the black Arthur Irby (36y), wife Mary, and their next
door neighbor George Brown & wife Lizzie, found in the 1920
Census for West Virginia, Raleigh Co, Coal City township, Hot Coal Precinct.
I suspect the above Arthur is the same Arthur Brown who married Pattie
Chappell in
1904 in Halifax Co VA. In the 1910 Census Arthur (26Y) and Pattie were
listed with their 3 female children in Halifax Co Virginia.
The name of the mother of Arthur was Sallie Brown. When Arthur married
Pattie in 1904 he used the Surname Brown, and listed his mother as Sallie. I
found Arthur (14Y) in the 1900 census for VA. living in the household of
Sallie Brown, with his siblings.
Arthur left (spelled abandoned) Pattie and his children in VA, and went alone
to W.Va.
I suspect that Arthur Irby and his next door neighbor George Brown in the
1920 West Virginia Census were related to each other.
Larry
