Opal Simpson; born on 31 Jan 1916 living at RR 2, Box 788, Princeton, WV 24740.
6. 16 Aug 2011; E-mail Correction and addition by Judy Kay Simpson daughter of John Harrison and
Margie Opal (Winfrey) Simpson.
"To whom it may concern, I'd like to make a correction to the following information in your "McDowell and Wyoming Co, WV Families and Individuals" at the Coal Exchange website:

"Please note that John A. Simpson should be John H. Simpson, and he is the same person as Harrison Simpon (that's what the H. that was mistakenly transcribed as an A. stands for). I know this because he was my father. John Harrison Simpson was born on 28 November 1909, and died on 30 June 1988 in Princeton, WV. John Harrison was married three times. Marriage 1 was to Cosby Brewster. Marriage 2 was to Margie Opal Winfrey (my mother). Marriage 3 was to Opal Gladys Wyatt Kirk. He had only one child, myself, Judy Kay Simpson, born on 28 Apr 1949 in Beckley WV.

"I'm not sure who Georgia Simpson was. I think her father Joseph Simpson has to have been a different Joseph Simpson than my grandfather, because she is mentionned nowhere in any of the family records. (I incorrectly listed Gracie Simpson as Georgia Simpson from the 1930 Census)

"Bessie Simpson should be Daisy Irene Simpson. Bessie was a nickname, which she *always* answered to rather than to her given name.

"Thanks in advance for updating your website with these corrections..."
