Louise: With your information, I know that my grandfather's parents names were Paul and Mary Ford from Prince Edward, VA. If their are any of you great people that could give me some information on Paul and Mary Ford from Prince Edward you would make my day, month, year. Apparently my granddad was born Feb 22, 1882 in Prince Edward. It would be nice too know if his sister whose married name of Lee was related maybe to Robert E Lee. I believe my mother said she married into a wealthy family. I know Dewey was her son.

Laura was the widow of a man named Mitchell. You can see the marriage record on the West Virginia Culture Website http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_mcsearch.aspx Use the index for the marriages. Put in Ford, Arthur and Mitchell, Laura. You will have the answer to where he was born and the names of his parents. Good luck.
