Very interested in family stories on this interesting man named Lewis Benjamin DORCAS. He was born in 1867 in New York, of African descent, in 1891 he marrried Mary E. HEDRICK at Harman, early I think in this area for an inter racial marriage. Probably because he was one of the smartest men around! They had the following children: Frederick D., Hubert & Hubbert, Lewis B., by 1886 Lewis was a Roalsburg WV barber, in 1887 he was the first colored juror to serve in Tucker County, highly educated, one of finest pen men in the state, first barber on Dry Fork at Horton, resided St. George, Tucker County.
