I am researching various surnames. Adams, Carters, Roberts, Kilgore, Hughes, Buckso/Bukson?, Childress, Church and other related families.
My names is Patricia "Patty" Hughes-Riley. I am the oldest child of Melvin and Mary Francis Buckso-Hughes and the first grandchild of John and Thelma Carter-Buckso. My other paternal grandparents were Ira Jesse and Elizabeth Childress-Hughes.
I was born in Wise, Co VA. but later moved to Ohio. I have one brother and three sisters.
Most of my mothers family was born in Letcher Co. Ky. But were raised in a small mining town "Roda" in Wise Co. VA.
My paternal grand-parents lived near Derby, in Wise Co. VA.
They are both buried in Powell Valley, The American Legion Cemetery in Big Stone Gap, Wise Co. VA.
This is a work in progress so please excuse any and all errors. Feel free to e-mail me on any corrections.
I can not claim all information to be proof but only my belief of obtaining information from hours of research.
I have used birth records, death records, census, wills and etc.
I would like to thank my dearest cousin Charles Carter for his interest and all his help.
And to all others who have shared information I treasure your kindness and appreciate everything. Thank you so very much.
Family is a precious gift from God and learning that we have more and more family has been enlightning.
God be with you always.
Patty Hughes-Riley
