27.JACOB CONRAD
    Jacob Conrad, a son of Benjamin and Barbara (Hedrick) Conrad, was born in Pendleton County Va (WV) in 1794 and died in Gilmer County WV September 23, 1872.  He married Eunice Virginia Mace in Harrison County VA (WV) September 2, 1815.  According to an article in "Journal of the Braxton Historical Society" for June 1988, Eunice, a daughter of John and
Molly Mace, was born in Pendleton County August 4, 1775and died in Gilmer County March 2, 1895.    There is considerable doubt that Eunice was actually born in 1775.Her age is reported as 58 in the 1850 Gilmer County VA census, as 67 in the 1860 Gilmer listing and as 71 in the 1870 returns.  Her youngest child was born in 1837.  If the 1775 date were correct,Eunice would have been 62 when he was born. Possible, but not likely.She was probably born between 1790 and
1795 and was probably a niece of Eunice Mace who was born in Pendleton County in August 1775.

38.JOHN B. CONRAD
     John B. Conrad, a son of Peter and Ann (Currence) Conrad was born in Lewis County VAMay 13, 1809 and died January 29, 1893.    John was apparently married twice.  His first wife was Mary Wilson and his second was Mary May. John is listed in the 1860 census of Gilmer County, VA (WV), with Mary, who was born in VA about 1839 and 3 children.  This appears to be Mary May.  Since the oldest child listed in the household is only eleven years younger than Mary, he is probably a child of the first wife.  There are four other children who do not appear in the 1860 Gilmer County census; Harmon Jackson, William Hall, Peter B.and Samuel.    John married Mary Ann Riffle in Braxton County in 1873.
