Elliott Alexander[4] Honaker (called E.A.) (Isaac Madison[3], Jacob[2], Frederick[1]). See photographs. Also reported born 15 Jan 1876.
History of Summers County [W.Va.], 1984, contained an item about E.A.'s family submitted by Virginia Maddy. The item said that they began married life and began raising their family near Bertha, Summers County, on the New River, in an area later covered by waters of the Bluestone Reservoir. Their home was where the Bluestone Presbyterian Conference Center stood in 1984. When the Bluestone Dam was completed, they moved to 311 Miller Ave., Bellepoint, W.Va.
On 21 May 1952, shortly before E.A. died, a photograph of part of his farm at Bertha, W.Va., appeared in an unidentified newspaper, captioned Presbyterians Plan Camp. The camp was subsequently built there. E.A.'s granddaughter, Ann (Albert) Ford, visited the site in Sep 1998 after a 50-year interval. She recognized two trees standing in what had been her grandparents' front yard and it brought back, she said, happy memories.
E.A.'s wife Mattie was the daughter of Lewis Steward (called Steward) Riffe and Sarah Ann (also reported as Sally Ann) Clark of Monroe County. Died 13 Jun 1948 in Clifton Forge, Va.
