· The first image depicts Hiram McCoy, with his piercing dark eyes and wavy dark hair. The second image is also Hiram, but as an older man.
He was a significant landowner and, according to the 1850 Census, a farmer.
According to Truda Williams McCoy, family historian and author of "The McCoys: their story as told to the author by eye witnesses and descendants," Hiram was born in 1803, in Pike County, KY. When born, his father, Samuel McCoy, was 21 years of age, and his mother, Elizabeth Davis Browning, was 20.
Hiram married Chloe Sansom (b: 1807 in Virginia) in 1837. Chloe was the daughter of Thomas Chapman of Pigeon Creek, Logan County, Virginia (now West Virginia). Chloe was the 30-year-old divorcee of James Sansom.
They had the following children: Julia Ann McCoy b: 1831 in Logan Co., WV; Lewis J. McCoy b: 1833 in Logan Co., WV; William Johnson McCoy b: 1836 in Lawrence Co., Ky.; and George Thomas McCoy, b: 1844 in Logan Co., WV.
On May 20, 1848, Hiram McCoy and James Brewster had a tract of 280 acres of land surveyed for them located on Buffalo Creek. The tract, located near Chattaroy, bordered a survey for John Thompson and extended to the dividing ridge between Buffalo Creek and Sugartree Creek.
On Feb. 16, 1849, he had a tract of 175 acres of land surveyed for himself situated on the Rockhouse Fork of Pigeon Creek. The mouth of the Rockhouse Fork is located at Delbarton.
According to public records, on Sept. 4, 1850, Hiram received an estimated 40 acres of land on the Rockhouse Fork from Andrew and Sarah Varney, in exchange for $1.
The tract, being a part of two surveys, one made by William Buffington and the other for John Stafford, began at the line on Buffington's survey opposite the upper end of the second bottom from the mouth of Rockhouse on the north side of the survey, running up Rockhouse Fork with the lines of Buffington's survey to the lower end of the survey made for Stafford and Varney and with the line of their survey up the Fork to the Fall Rock Branch, crossing the Fork to the south line of the survey, then down the Fork with the south lines of both the Stafford/Varney and Buffington surveys to opposite of the place of the beginning, then crossing the Fork to the same.
On Sept. 14, Andrew and Sarah Varney presented and acknowledged the deed to Justices William Tiller and Evan Ellis. The same was presented to and recorded two days later by William Straton, Clerk of Logan County.
On Nov. 20, 1852, Hiram, sold to his wife, Chloe, and each of their children (Malvina Curry, Eveline Browning, Juliann McCoy, Lewis J. McCoy, William J. McCoy, and George T. McCoy), both of his tracts of land, being the 40-acre tract on Rockhouse Fork received from Andrew and Sarah Varney, and a tract of 227 acres, which runs around the first tract, for $300.
The condition of the deed is that Chloe is to have sole use and control during her natural life, and upon her death would descend to the children. Hiram visited Alexander Runyon, a Justice of the Peace on January 18, 1853, to acknowledge the deed. William Straton, Clerk of Logan County, recorded it February 3, 1853.
On August 11, 1854, Hiram, along with James Brewster, both sold their 280-acre parcels on Buffalo Creek to Thomas Webb for $100. They acknowledged the deed that same day to Henry Farley, a Justice of the Peace. William Straton, Clerk of Logan County, recorded it October 4, 1854.
Hiram McCoy passed in 1860 (age 57) in Lawnsville, Virginia (now Logan, West Virginia).

Elizabeth Davis, wife of Samuel McCoy circa 1800, Virginia
From the book, "The McCoys: Their Story," by Truda Williams McCoy, page 241:
"Ezekiel McCoy, son of William, was born about 1775, his birthplace unknown. He may have married Nancy Davis on 7 April 1798 in Montgomery County, Virginia, with Jonathan Davis, Sr., as surety. It is possible, but not proven, that Nancy was sister to Elizabeth Davis, the probable wife of Ezekiel's brother, Samuel McCoy."
[... notes: 1. There is a marriage record for Samuel McCoy and Elizabeth Davis on 12 August 1802 in Tazewell County, VA. Tazewell County was formed from Montgomery County around 1800. There is also a marriage record for Samuel McCoy and Elizabeth Dawes on 12 August 1802 in Logan County, VA (now WV). It may be difficult to read the handwriting for Davis/Dawes--I have not seen original.The couple may have been married in the part of Logan County that was formed from Tazewell County, and, hence, the two records.
2. Jonathan Davis, Sr., was surety for the marriage of Nancy to Ezekial McCoy. This could have been her father, but this is not proven.]
