Frey Family of West Virginia
I am searching for information about my Great Grandfather's family, John Frey b:17 SEP 1893 d:6 1985. I do not know his parents names, but he married Catherine Haught.
Thank you,
Beth Linn

My great g-grandfather married a Josephine Frey. They lived in Virgina. His name was Joseph Maddox does any of this ring a bell?
No ma'am, I haven't found the connection as of yet. About what time frame was Josephine born, do you know?
I have a Daniel Frye, b. 1802, possibly in Germany. Settled in Eastern Ohio, on the Ohio River (directly across from Wheeling West Virginia). Possibly the son of Conrad Frye aka Frey. Do any of these names show in your line?

This looks like the death of one of John Frey and Catherine Haught's children. John was born in PA and Catherine in W Va and at this point in time they were living in Cross Creek, Jefferson, Ohio. This might help your search.
