Descendants of William Alvis




Generation No. 1


      1. William1 Alvis was born Bet. 1800 - 1810 in Probably Virginia. He married Elizabeth Abt. 1835.
     
Children of William Alvis and Elizabeth are:
+ 2 i.   Alexis2 Alvis, born Abt. 1836 in Augusta Co., Virginia; died Bef. 1871 in Greenbrier Co., West Virginia (?).
  3 ii.   Thomas J. Alvis1, born Abt. 18371.
  Notes for Thomas J. Alvis:
Thomas J. Alvis appears in the 1860 Greenbrier County Census in the household of Alexis Alvis. He is listed as 23 years old, and as a farmer. He can read and write. I have no evidence he is a brother to Alexis, but it seems the most likely relationship. It is not sure, however.


+ 4 iii.   Nancy Ann Alvis, born Abt. 1840 in Augusta Co., Virginia.
  5 iv.   Leanna Alvis, born Abt. 1847 in Greenbrier Co., West Virginia2. She married William H. S. Flack3 September 01, 1870 in Greenbrier Co., West Virginia4.
  Notes for Leanna Alvis:
This daughter is not certain. The source lists her parents as M Alvis and Elizabeth Alvis, and her birthplace as Greenbrier county. I feel that the M is actually a mistranscribed Wm as all the other entries read. This seems likely because of a lack of corroboration of the existence of an M Alvis in the county. The Alvis family is small in this county so it seems unlikely he would never appear in any other documents. Isaiah also seems to have married Leanna's sister-in-law, which seems to indicate a probable relationship between them, and we have solid documentation of his parents. And while the fathers name does not seem to match, the mother of Leanna is listed as Elizabeth. So even though certainty can not be claimed, the evidence is substantial.

  6 v.   Isaiah Alvis5, born Abt. 1848 in Greenbrier Co., West Virginia6. He married Amanda Flack6 November 25, 1869 in Greenbrier Co., West Virginia6.
