Simpson Methodist Ch, St Road & Tax Consultant. I never saw him wear anything but a suit with hat, usually light colored, which would normally indicate wealth. In 1963, during the centenial celebration of the Civil War & the birth of West Virginia, all the kids had either blue or gray Civil War style hats. Mine was blue and very beat up and battered as I wore it all the time. Alton offered to buy me a brand new gray hat if I would throw away that Yankee one. I refused his offer as I would never wear a Rebel hat. Alton also named a son, Robert Lee Yeater. I believe all the stories about the Yohos being southern symphathyzers to be true. You will not find more than one or two of the Marshall County Yohos who were in the Civil War, in the Union Army. When my mother was a little girl, her mother would dress her up in the cutest little outfits, and then her Dad would take her for a walk on the town. He would stop to talk to everyone and show off his little daughter. Alton had an extensive library of books. He was very interested in all the wars and the great generals. I borrowed as many of those books as I could read as I was also interested in the American Revolution, Civil War, and WWII. Alton's son, Jeff, now has most of those books. Alton was also very interested in the family history. On numerous occasions my mother has told me how happy he would be that I am working on the family history. Alton was very proud of his ancestors.

I am now almost out of money. I only have eight dollars now they say the money will soon be here for us and I will then try to come if I can though it will cost me $15.00 to come and it is that much from your living though if I can I will come. We had a little battle at Strawsburg today there was some of our men went up and attacked the Rebs there and killed 11 wounded 27 took 30 prisoners our boys 1 killed 1 wounded. I am happy you have moved into Joanes (?) house you can now have a home until I can get to come and fix you more comfortable.

This story was told to me by Tom Yoho, son of Noel Yoho. Tom also has the family bible and a painting of Henry M Yoho. Moundsville Daily Echo, Thursday, March 18, 1915 Henry Yoho died at his home on Ryans Ridge at 12:30 o'clock Wednesday night after an illness of about two weeks. Mr Yoho was 83 years old November 23, 1914 and is survived by three sons, S. T. Yoho, T. A. Yoho, and W. W. Yoho all of Franklin District, and one daughter Mrs Austin Franklin of Woodlands. Mrs. Yoho has been dead for several years and Mr. Yoho lived at the old home place with his grandson Tom Yoho. The funeral will be held at 1 o'clock Friday morning. Interment at Yoho cemetery. Mr. Yoho was one of the oldest and best known citizens in the southern part of the county. Recollections: Sullivan Yoho wrote: Henry M. Yoho could neither read nor write. But he had the ability to provide all of his sons a farm to live on. He died on 17 MAR 1915 and was buried in the Yoho Cemetery on Rines Ridge Road, Route 76. In fact, this Henry Yoho set up this burial place on his farm. When I die and am buried here I will be the 4th generation of my family buried in this place. My great-grandad, Henry, is in the 1st row. My grandad, John R. is in the 2nd row and my dad is in the 3rd row. I have my stone in the fourth and last row. None of the other relatives of Henry Yoho have 4 generations in this place. This has been a well ekpt grave site for about 100 years. The Yoho family has held the farm in their family all this time. However, Ruth (Yoho) Cozart passed away at the farm during the winter of 1994. The farm is now for sale as Ruth had no children. She left the farm to neices and nephews that live far away. They have never lived here and are not interested in keeping the land. I expect time will change the appearance of this grave yard. I have tried to set up some money to maintain the upkeep, but no one knows what tomorrow brings in this USA now!

Christian, called Betty Moundsville Weekly Echo Mrs Susan E. Yoho. wife of Henry Yoho, a prominent citizen of Marshall county, died June 16, at her home on Ryan's Ridge where she has resided for more than forty years. Although her sickness had extended over many months and her death had been expected at various times during the past year, yet with the news that she had finally passed away, a feeling of sadness filled the who community. Mrs. Yoho was born in Hampshire county, Virginia in 1835 and was mrrried in 1856. At the time of her death she had reached the age of a few days more than seventy five years. Soon after her marriage she accepted Christ as her Savior and ideal in life and united with the Christen church in which she has remained a faithful and loyal member. So thoroughly did the principles of life of the man of Gallilee dominate her actions that she was always sought by the needy who invariably carried away the sympathy of a loving heart, and as far as possible the help they needed. Her home was a refuge for the stranger and a center of association for children and friends, and the communities regard for her was manifested in the great number of anxious inquiries during her sickness and the hundreds of friends who came to apy their last respects. While her sickness was long and at times, her suffering intense, yet she was patient and trustful to the end. She is survived by her husband, one brother John R. Kelley of Meighen, and four children, S. T. Yoho of Howard, W. W. Yoho of Burch Ridge, T. A. Yoho and Mrs. A. L. Franklin of Ryans Ridge all of whom are well known throughout the county. The funeral services were held at the home Saturday morning June 18, conducted by Rev. J. F. Jameson, who spoke briefly from John 14:2 and assisted by Rev. Travis. At the conclusion of the services the remains were tenderly laid to rest in the family cemetery near the home. Henry M. Yoho and Susan Elizabeth Kelley had the following children: i. Friend K. Yoho.

He came to Marshall county in 1868 and engaged in farming and merchandising in which he continued until his death. He has held several offices of honor and trust since he came here, such as justice of peace, president of board of education, and notary public. His death occurred very suddenly. He was conversing with his brother Samuel who saw nothing the matter with him till he fell and instantly expired, supposed to be from heart disease. The bereaved family feel very grateful to their friends and neighbors and hereby thank them for their kindness and assistance in their trouble. He was married to Margaret Fox on 22 SEP 1861. 55.

She came to the United States in 1848, with her parents and settled in Ohio. In 1861, she was united in marriage to Henry Resseger. During the War they lived in Monroe county, Ohio. In 1867 she and her husband moved to Fairview, Franklin district, Marshall county, WV. She spent many years in this place. Her husband was a merchant, and she spent a great deal of time in the store, as her husband was often called away to attend to public business. As a neighbor and friend everybody like her. She was kind hearted and universally loved by all who knew her. When her husband died on June 11th, 1903, she left Fairview and went to Howard to live with her son-in-law S. T. Yoho. During the seven years she made her home here. She was tenderly cared for by her son-in-law and only daughter her grandchildren and all loved her. She had a strong constitution and was healthy up to the afternoon she journeyed to the land beyond. Her death was very sudden. She was visiting her granddaughter at Proctor, Mrs. Wiley Yeater, when about 4 o'clock she was playing with one of her great-grandchildren and she dropped down. The doctor and neighbors were called but she had gone into the sleep of death. She was to have visited Mr. and Mrs. Henry Yoho on her way back to Howard, but her last visit had been made when she was taken to the private burying ground of Henry Yoho to be buried she knew it not. Her earthly career had ended. The service was conducted at Sloan's church by Rev. A. Linkletter in the presence of a very large gathering, people having come from Ohio and New Martinsville to attend the funeral. She commenced to live for Christ when she was entering her twelfth year. She tried to live in such a way that she would be prepared to go home to the good world when the heavenly Father would call her. And while the summons came without any warning she commenced to sleep for eternity. She rests from her labors in this life to live with the angels and all pure spirits in the world where there is no more pain, and God wipes away tears, and where none ever weep or sigh. Henry Ressegger and Margaret Fox had the following children: 27 i. Ella Ressegger. 56. William Holstine160 was born in 1815 in Botetourt Co, VA. He died on 15 SEP 1873 in Kanawha Co, WV.

Today the Justice of the peace's power is much less extensive, but in those early days he was an appointed official, rather than elected, and had both local executive and administrative powers, depending on the are in which he served. Often he drew up the tax levy, collected the tax, appointed road commissioners, granted licenses to taverns, appointed and controlled administrators, executors and guardians. Just as his title implies, his administration of justice was important in exercising powers of investigating crimes and in some places the Justice of the Peace could commit persons suspected of criminal acts. on 13th July, 1853, a deed between Nancy Holstein (not William's wife) and Henry Holstein was made for land on Drawdy's Creek adjacent to the Harless farm near Toney's Fork. On 18 July, the following was recorded: Virginia Boone County To wit: This day personally appeared before us E. M. Fowler & William Holstein, the undersigned Justice of the peace in Boone Co. Virginia. Nancy Holstein party to the within deed and acknowledged the same to her act and deed and desired me to certify the same to clerk of Boone Co Court that the same might be recorded. E. M. Fowler J.P. William Holstein J.P. On the 22nd of September the following year a deed between Isaac Kirk and his wife Cynthia williams, "daughter & heir of Isaac Williams Dec'd" and Patterson Meadows (who married Cynthia's sister) was made and witnessed by "William Holstine a Justice of the peace. . . Given under myhand this 23rd day of September, 1854." During the next year William Holstine was recorded in Boone County Court Order Book #1 as "The Court this day, June 12, 1855, a majority of the Justices being present proceded to make the following allowances. . . William Holstine $18.00 for 6 days service at $3.00 per day." In 1856 and 1857 William Holstine was responsible for the guardianship of the children of Uriah Ferrell and Henry Williams. The following deed was written by william and for that reason is being included here in part. The reader should remember that standardized spelling did not come into use until about 1900. The deed is from John S. Miller who is turing over to William Holstine, Justice of Peace, the named items for William Holstine to hold in security for the seventy-five dollars for which Miller owed Williams. In case the bond did not get paid, William Holstine, as Justice of the Peace, had the right to sell items and see that the bond was paid. On 3 April, 1858, William Holstine bought from Daniel Javins and his second wife, Caroline Javins, one hundred acres for seventy dollars, the land "lying on the waters of White Creek, a branch of Big Coal River. . ." that land may have been a part of the Nathan Basham Sr. estate since Daniel Jr.'s first wife and William's wife, Nancy, were possible daughters of Nathan Basham and named as heirs in the estate settlement of Nathan Basham (q.v.). The above 1858 land purchase is the only land purchase this researcher has been able to find for William Holstine; however, he must have owned much more land or would not have been referred to in county records as "William Holstine, gent." and "William Holstine, Esq." unless the title was given him because of his prominence in the community as a Justice of the Peace. On 12 May, 1858, William holstine, along with Mitchell O. Clay and William Workman, was appointed commissioner to "superintend the organization of the Militia of this (Boone) County". The order books show no other mention of the county militia until June, 1861, at which time the court ordered: That the sum of $2500.00 be allowed for the benefit of the volunteers of this county and for the other purposes to be indicated by the commissioners appointed to distribute the fund; and it is further ordered that the sheriff of county collect from each Tithable the sum of $1.00 and that the sum of $.25 be taxed on every $100 worth of personal property and real estate to pay said allowance. In April, 1861, William Holstine was one of "the gentlemen Justices who voted on the question of selling ardent spirits by License." William voted against it. Boone County Court Order Book 2, shows that William Holstine was one of the justices in court when george W. Coon was charged with "Felony on 11 September, 1866. George stabbed Squire Thompson. Present. Anderson Barker (q.v.), John Atkins, and William Holstine Gentlemen Justices." On 15 September, 1873, William fell victim of consumption, better known today as tuberculosis, a disease that took many lives in that era. The "Asssessor's book" shows that William died in Kanawha county, so it is possible that he was taken to a hospital in Charleston. During his lifetime, William followed the precedent set by his ancestors; he was active in both civic and military affairs. He was married to Nancy Jane Basham on 4 AUG 1836. 57.
