This story starts way back in 1789. That is when my Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Grandfather Valentine “Wall” Hatfield was born. He had a son named Ephriam “Big Eph” Hatfield. He had a daughter named Martha “Mattie” Varney. She is my Great-Great-Great Grandmother and she was the sister of the famous Anderson “Devil Anse” Hatfield. She had a daughter named Sarah Varney Browning. She had a son named Lark Browning who was born in 1879. He was my Great-Grandfather, but I never met him. Lark had two sons, one was my Grandfather, William Everett Scott Browning. Lark moved from the southern coalfields of WV to become one of the original homesteaders of a town in Putnam County WV called Eleanor. My grandfather was born in 1928. He married my grandmother, Janet McClannahan in 1958. He was 29 and she was 21. They already had my father by that time. He was born in January of 1958. He has two little brothers and two little sisters. I’m an only child, but I now have 2 sons of my own.

      Some nice genealogy work went into your knowing the lineage. Would like to read more about the various "infamous" Hatfield-McCoy feud and how it played out in your family. Lovely layout and that "wanted" poster is a nice touch.
