I find that town name very interesting. "Hazzlesville"....I have never
heard of it, and my HAZLETT's came from Virginia.
Now I am wondering.....................have I, or you, discovered a new
route for me to follow ?
Very interesting.................
Has anyone any information on "Hazzlesville", West Virginia ????
