Synopsis "Ballengees of West Virginia: Isaac, Elizabeth, Absolom, Evi (in English)"
Isaac Ballengee I of Virginia had seven children. One, Elizabeth, did not marry but by way of two of her children became ancestress to thousands. She was a family secret for two hundred years, her unconventional life concealed by "generational amnesia." This book holds Elizabeth's story and those of her father, her son Absalom (his paternity proven by DNA testing), Absalom's son Evi, and Evi's progeny. Many sources are cited. Maps, photos, and other elements enrich the narrative.
