Hi! My maternal grandmother was Hattie Lee Via. I recently started researching and now believe she was the daughter of Horace"Bee" Via and Samantha Courier. I knew nothing of my grandmother's family except that her mother died when she was young and she and her husband John Pruden moved to Iowa from MIssouri. Looking at what info is online and public family trees, it appears we go back to Amer Via. I am interested in any family history that would shed light on when the Via's came to Virginia, why Horace moved to MO, etc.
