John Canterbury 1885 WV
I have been looking for father's family for several years with no luck. I hope someone can help me. My g-grandfather was Calvin Canterbury, born in early 1800, married Manerva Jane Ellison and they were the parents of 7 children. Henry, Sarah, Charles, ballard, John E. Alice and Bessie. John E. born 1885, my grandfather, married Earny Harper and they had two sons,Eddie Samuel, my father and Sherman. My grandmother died young and John married Maude Ellis and had three more children,Clarence, Holly and Stella. Eddie graduated from Sharpless High School in May, 1930 and moved North to Webster County in 1932. He married my mother in 1933 and I was born in 1934 and he never returned to Logan County and never kept in touch with his family.Eddie died in Barbour County in 1973. I wasn't looking for my roots back then, but now I have no one to turn to. It's so sad that I have family out there and may never know who they are.
