near Carrie (once Rollpone), Virginia, 19 February 1867. My
parents were ELIHU L. KISER and MARY ANDERSON. My Kiser grandparents
were EPHRIAM KISER and POLLY SUTHERLAND. They lived on Mill Creek
of Clinch River, near Carbo, Virginia - in the next house above Uncle Dan
Kiser’s mill, and where most of his children were born.
Uncle Noah Kiser lived at his Daddy’s Place after Grandpa died,
and one of Uncle Noah’s children was Burb Kiser, who also lived
there. My mother was an Anderson. I believe Amos was her father’s
name, and "One-Armed George" Anderson, of Sand Lick, was her brother.
When I first can recollect, the Andersons lived on Gravel Lick. They
all died years ago, and I never knew them very well. Father moved to Sandy
Ridge just after his marriage in 1857. I think the land he got was
a part of the patent or survey for Old Charley Kiser.It was on the county
line between Dickenson and Russell Counties. Father claimed the county
line ran through the corner of his house. He slept and voted in Russell
County. His land and Uncle Jeptha Kiser’s land was first
laid off together but later divided, Uncle Jepth’s home being
about one-fourth mile east of Daddy’s. Other early neighbors
of ours were: Jake Lambert - lived on head of Caney Fork of Indian
Creek; Elijah Rasnick - lived on headwaters of Hurricane Fork of Dumps
Creek; Jim Rasnick - lived on ridge near where his son Lige now lives;
Sammy Sutherland - lived further west on Sandy Ridge; John S. Duty - lived
on head of Indian Creek above Eiven Tiller’s; Uncle Henry Kiser
- lived where Bob Kiser now owns - out next to Carrie Post Office; Uncle
Jim (James M "Buck Jim") Kiser (father of James Schofield "Tug" Kiser)
- lived further west on the Tug Kiser farm on Sandy Ridge - I think they
moved there before Pa moved to Sandy Ridge; and John Powers - lived where
his son Arch later lived. Lie Sutherland was the first person living
at Rollpone (Wilder) that I can recollect. Father put an "L" in his
name to make it different from other Elihu Kisers. Mother put a "D"
in her name, but I don’t know why." E. J. Sutherland's
