The burials include Jacob and Mary (Connoly) Feather, who established the line in Preston County circa 1813. This book goes beyond the basic genealogical information to provide revealing glimpses of these individuals lives through newspaper articles, obituaries, personal recollections and the histories of other pioneer families that married into the Feather line. Those families include Rodeheavers, Kelly, Ringer, Ervin, Hauger, and many more.
