I am researching the Michael surname of West Virginia. The following is what I have: Abel and Margaret (Owens or Irons) Michaels. Their children were John, Maria, Mary and possibly Isaac. They were in Grant County and Taylor County around 1850 and 1860. John Michael married Anna Jane Kidwell. Their children were Charles, Elmer, Ella, Laura, Grace, Clarence, Ida, Clara, Emma, Mabel, Margaret. Some of the girls might not have been children or it might be a first and middle name. Do you have any of these in your family?
