At last someone is getting it RIGHT. I am one of 9 grandchildren of Edna Cantrell who m. Perry Wilson Mullins. Edna died very young of a TB/like illness just about 4 mo. after mom was born. My Mother was their only living child who was raised by granny Eliza, uncle Whit/Dan/and auntie Samanta Mullins. I do have a few pictures. Mother’s name is Naomi Mullins b. Feb. 4, 1920; death July 28, 2000 in Kanawha Co., W. VA.
I now live in Alberta Canada along the foothills of the mid.-range Rocky Mtns. near Waterton Lakes, Glacier Peace Park. I love it here. I also own property in Huntington, W. Va.
One of my grandmothers is Jenny Potter, daughter of Abraham who married Jim Ode’ Sr. Mullins. I am very interested in knowing more about Jenny’s mother. Some reports indicate that her mother was an Alice Goodall and other reports that her mother was a Stewart,(daughter of a David Stewart). Does anyone know for SURE?
Good night everyone-

I’m descended from the line below. John McDaniel’s wife was Charity Rebecca Sturgill, from Letcher Co. KY. They were my great grandparents. I remember visiting after her stroke, right before her death in 1957.

I’ve just now had a few moments access to a computer and have edited a little bit on a few of the pages. I still need to add a new addition to the family. Allauna, my brother’s granddaughter has a new daughter and we need to add her to the New Birth pages. I will be doing that in the next few weeks. Don’t want Allauna to think we have forgotten about her. She’s very precious to all of us! Will also add some photos and info about the family as soon as I can get to it.

Thanks to all who have continued to visit us and to all those who have been emailing and leaving messages, I will be sure to answer each one and will also add everything sent to me when I have more free access to the computer.

Also have lots of new info from Hazel Potter Thompson who called and has some wonderful additional information to the Potter family. Can’t wait to get my computer up and running. I believe it will be sometime in mid January 2010 when that occurs.

Love to all,
Annette Potter
