  The following list was compiled by Judge Winton A. White and presented to the Beckley Post-Herald newspaper in 1950. The list was published in the 1850 Centennial Edition of the Beckley Post-Herald on 26 Aug. 1950. It is now available in either the "Smith-Riffe" microfilm collection at the Raleigh County Public Library in Beckley, or from the Beckley Register-Herald Archives also located in Beckley, WV. Judge Riffe was an excellent historian, however, there are known errors in this work, so please check all information against primary sources. 1830 - 1840 MANKIN, James - A native of Patrick County, Va., he settled in the Marshes in 1843.
