William Warwick Renick Callihan is my 4th great grandfather. He died in Luray, Missouri Dec 1874 in the home of his son, my 3rd great grandfather Charles Stuart Callihan. William W. R. Callihan was a wealthy Virginia farmer. When Virginia split, his hundreds of acres became part of West Virginia. So, if counties and States where he was born and lived doesnt seem to always match up, it is because his property didnt move, rather a new state, West Virginia, was drawn. For more information about the life and death of William W. R. Callihan please refer to "Board v. Callihan" 33 W. Va. 209 (1889) Nov 18, 1889 Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia. A simple Google search for "Board V Callihan" will suffice. It is an interesting court case where the granddaughter, Board, sued the estate of her grandfather, Callihan. Much is written of Charles Stuart Callihan as well, who served in the Civil War as a Union Chaplin. Charles was against slavery so when the Civil War began he temporarily moved his family from Clark County MO to Lima, Illinois and served in the 99th Illinois. I do hope the court documents are enough to correct the incorrect info given in regards to his birth and death location.
