LeRosa Jane was born 10/4/1877 in Carroll County, VA. She died 7/9/1954 in Whipple, Fayette County, WV. She married John Wesley Horton (see Horton Story). The family story is that Jane?s sister, Cora, who was married to John Wesley?s brother Monroe ?Roe? Horton, had moved to Raleigh County, WV. Cora was pregnant and asked her father if her sister, Jane, could come to help her. Jane and Cora?s father said that Jane could go help until the baby was born, but only if she would not have anything to do with Monroe?s brother, John Wesley Horton. Jane agreed. John Wesley met Jane?s train when it arrived and there were married not long after she arrived there. Before Cora?s baby was born, her husband was kicked in the head by a mule and died. Jane and John Wesley wanted to adopt the baby, Willie, and the older children, but Cora said no. However, she ended up selling the farm and the mule and left West Virginia for about three years. Some other families raised or adopted Cora?s children which caused a disagreement between Jane and Cora because Jane wanted them. The following is a list of Cora?s children and what families raised them:

? Hattie Horton was raised by the Covey family. They later gave her to John Wesley and Jane.

? Millard Horton was raised by the Gray family (not the same family that took Al Horton). The family raised him but did not adopt him.

? Al Horton was raised by the Gray family. We don?t know if he was adopted or not.

? Lucy Horton was adopted by John R. Callaway.

? Sherman Horton was raised by the Ward family, but not adopted. He was killed in World War II and Cora inherited his money and gave it to Hattie who bought a place at Surveyor, WV.

? Willie Horton was raised by Marion Marshall and Lucinda Hendrick, Cora and Jane?s parents. We don?t know where Cora was during those three years, but some say she went out west. She later came back with Harry Townsend. They had one child, Myrtle. Harry Townsend left and Cora later married Henry Keaton. Myrtle Townsend married Claude Talbert.

Jane had one child prior to her marriage to John Wesley Horton. That child?s name was:

? Beatrice (who died in infancy from spinal meningitis)

John Wesley and Jane had children of:

? Lacy French, b 6/12/1903. French had spinal meningitis as a child which caused brain damage.

? George Howard, b xxxxxxx

? Rieta Elsie b xxxxxx

? Curtis Marshall b xxxxxx

Jane used to make homemade apple butter. She and all the relatives would gather and peel apples all one day and cook them all the next day, outdoors over an open fire. The pot she used was taken from an old whisky still.

Another family story is that Jane Horton had been to visit her father who was ill in Virginia and wrote home so someone in West Virginia would meet her train when she arrived home. Her husband and his father-in-law had been working at the Blue Jay Lumber Company and the family lived at the lumber camp. Jake Horton sharpened saws there. When the train arrived no one was there to meet her. Jane had her older children with her. Since the train stop was at McCrerry (near Quinmont) on the New River and Blue Jay was quite a distance (near Grandview) and she had no ride she decided to walk to the lumber camp. She came to a road, after walking for a long time and decided it was a short cut to Blue Jay. Her son, Howard, told her it was the wrong way, but she was determined and took that road anyway. After several hours they reached the top of the mountain and they looked back down on the train station where they had started. On the way up the mountain they had seen a very large rattlesnake and had to get off the path. After they got to the top of the mountain, realized that they had come the wrong way, they had to go back by the rattlesnake again. After walking a long time she cam upon a house and stopped to see if they could let her use a light as it was getting dark. A man came out and asked her name. His name was Howard and as it turned out he knew Jake Horton. He invited them to spend the night. They did and started out walking again the next morning but did not reach Blue Jay Lumber Camp until early afternoon. The letter to Jake Horton about the travel plans arrived the day after Jane and her children arrived. This event happened about a year before Jake Horton died.
