Hi Tess,
ReplyDeleteI have family from Augusta County, Virginia too. Your Christian Rusmisel married my 4th Great Aunt Ann Shelly. I'm a descendant of Ann's brother, John Shelly who married Elizabeth Stover. I enjoyed reading your Augusta County posts. Recently I started my own blog called "Barb's Family Stories" at www.barbsfam.blogspot.com. Come visit!
