Biography

From William T. Price's "Historical Sketches of Pocahontas Co, WV" (reprinted by McClain Publishing, Parsons, WV, 1963; originally published by Price Brothers, Marlinton, WV, 1901):


William Curry, son of John and Jane Curry, was born in Bath county, Virginia, November 28, 1821. In 1853 he made his home in Pocahontas county, and in this county, on the 21st of February, 1860, he married Lucy, daughter of Joel and Rebecca Hill. She was born in Pocahontas county, September 21, 1841, and their children were born: Rebecca C., August 21, 1861; Sherman P., November 24, 1865; Mary C., June 1, 1870; Lillie I., December 12, 1873. From March, 1853, to January 1, 1879 William Curry was clerk of the circuit and county courts of Pocahontas county (a portion of the time acting as deputy clerk). He is now one of the substantial farmers of the county, with post office address at Huntersville, Pocahontas county, West Virginia.
