" The Lusk Family 1749 - 2000 " of WV. PA. IN. VA.MD.

Updated April 7, 2001

I started this project for my Mom, I have been so excited at the treasures of information, that I am now doing it for me and her. With some help from Barb (oldteach) I have info on the Lusk ansestors back to 1750 Andrew Lusk Sr. he and his son's were Indian Scout's during the Indian uprisings in the late 1700's early 1800"s (I often wondered why my children fought like Indians it must come natural), so MY TREE now extends from 1750 to 1999.

I am the 4th Great GrandDaughter to Samuel Lusk Sr.(b.1750 in Augusta Co. Virginia.) The 3rd Great GrandDaughter to Samuel Lusk Jr. (b. 1778 in Augusta Co. Virginia.) The 2nd Great GrandDaughter to Harrison Lusk (b. 1813 in Cabell Co. West Virginia.) The Great GrandDaughter of Andrew Jackson Lusk Sr. (b.1869 in ?.) The GrandDaughter of Samuel Parker Lusk (b.1892 in Hawksnest, West Virginia).My GrandFather Samuel Parker Lusk, passed away 2 years before I was born, he worked in the Sun Mines in Cunningham, Pennsylvania. I did have the pleasure to go to my Great Uncle, Ulysess Simpson (Pete) Lusk's funeral,in Charleston, West Virginia and meet my 2nd cousin Beullah Mae Lusk (Boots), the daughter of Ulysess Simpson Lusk. She is a month away from from her 80th birthday, and a treasure full of old stories and information, I am in contact with her by phone, and after the holidays we plan to exchange some of that information to help me with this TREE. One thing she likes to mention is no one knows why all 5 of the Lusk son's of Andrew Jackson Lusk Sr. were named ater President's. She giggles when she mentions it almost as if she knows, but is not telling. I have a photo of Carl Lusk from 1975, I am going to check out his Memories also if he is still around. Thank you for visiting my Lusk Family Tree Home Site. Any additional information you can contribute is muchly appreciated. If I can be of some help to you, don't hesitate contacting me by Phone or e-mail. Arthetta Rae (Beck) Goodrow.

The Bailey Sisters (Chloe & Sara)(m)(David Lusk & Samuel Lusk Jr.) sons of Samuel Lusk Sr.(m)Susannah Stephenson abt. 1770,August Co.Virginia. I felt the Bailey, side of our ancestry, is just as important as the Lusk side. These 2 Sisters would be my 4th GR.Grandmother & 4th Gr.Aunt. I found this file on a research site, asking for info on David & Samuel Lusk. I downloaded file to see if I could help, realizing I could, I e-mailed to give info, and it was returned.
