    Greetings! i am Steve Conner. My Virginia roots go back to Lawrence Conner and Margaret Blaine who were msrried in Botetourt County on 17 February 1783. They moved through Wythe and Tazewell Counties before heading to Cumberland County, Kentucky about 1800.

  • John Hale

    I discovered through DNA research that my 2nd great-grandfather John Hale (born 1815 Wythe County, VA; died about 1877 Magoffin County, KY) father is Michael Aker (born 1766 Somerset County, PA; died 1833 Wythe County, VA. This has been confirmed by a DNA analyst at DNA Detectives. I have not yet confirmed who John Hale's mother is, I can't find enough matches with Michael Aker's wife Catherine Hepner to do a DNA analysis on her. Michael Aker may have had a liaison with another woman in his community in Wythe County, VA.
