Hi Mary, I am so stuck with my West, I would love to claim your James West
and all his children but I couldn't make him or his family fit into my West
family but I will keep trying. I wish you luck, the West group seem to be
very elusive. There are plenty to go around but they do not seem to fit
together as a family.

I am listing my West so you can see if there are any you would like to have.

Durant L. West b. 1812 NC. Moved to GA with family at some point. When he
married abt. 1838, in GA, he and wife moved to Dale or Coffee Co., Ala.
After the Civil War, abt. 1870, he and family moved to Lavaca, Sebastian Co.,
Ark where he died.
