My mother was a Race.And she never knew very much about her ancestors. Her father was Ellis Cleveland Race, born in Calhoun Co., WV., and his father was Job Lewis Race, and I think he may have been born in Hardy Co. (VA) WV, and then his father was Hugh A. Race, and from what I can find, then his father was Andrew Race, from Hardy Co.WV.
Andrew was married to a Sarah.(Hyder?) in Dec. 1805,and may have married again, later in life.
Hugh was married to a Mary Haines, and later in life, married an Emily Jane Beall, in Jan 1885, In Calhoun Co., WV.
Job Lewis Race was married to Lucinda Cox, Calhoun Co.,and evidently Lucinda died, and the children (my grandfather) were placed in different homes in the county.
In 1901, Job then married Addie A. Carter.He was 50 yrs old at that time, and Addie Carter was 21.
My grandfather, Ellis Cleveland Race, married my grandmother, Vernace May Adams, in Jan. 1907.At least that is what I have found.I don't know if this is anything you are looking for, or not.I am still searching for the other siblings, etc.
