Re: Buchanan in WVa, mid 1800's

Beckie,

In reading your 6/3/99 posting to familytreemaker's Buchanan family genealogy forum I think we may be related.

I am a ggg-grandson of Ebenezer and Rebecca Buchanan through their son Kinzie A. D. Buchanan b.Sept/1838 in Ohio. Kinzie's son John Smith Buchanan b.Mar/1879 in Parkersburg, WV is my Great Grandfather.

Here is some of the information I have on my Buchanans:
