Looking for ancestors of GGGrandfather Jacob Carper. Married Maria Roney 14 Aug 1849 in Berkeley Co.
Found them in the 1860 & 1870 census in Martinsburg. The children left for Ohio without parents between 1870 and 1880. Jacob was around because after my Great grandfather had a few children up in Ohio- he wanted him to send them south to him. This didnt happen. I dont know if Maria died or they divorced. Am really at a brick wall with this. My great-grandfather's death certificate in Ohio states mother- unknown. This is odd.
I feel that someone in the family had to be up in Ohio previously because these children were at a wide variety of ages upon leaving WVA.

Does any of this ring a bell??
