I would like to hear from anyone who has Roane County stories,
anecdotes, etc. about the HUSK family. Realize all will not be good
news. My father, Floyd Arthur HUSK and his brothers were like many other
scoundrels out of the hills, 50% good and 50% bad, with varying degrees
between brothers
I would like contact with others researching Jordan MCMILLAN of Roane
County, WV .... His father was Thomas McMILLAN of Beeler's Station in

in Ireland and came to Baltimore, MD in 1771 .... Would really
appreciate info on Jordan, glad to pay copy fees, etc
