This information on Nancy Ann Armstrong, the eleventh child of John and Nancy Agnes (Ervine) Armstrong has been taken from "The West Virginia Heritage Encyclopedia", Morton's Histories of Highland County, Virginia, and Pendleton County, West Virginia. Some of the information was found in the notes of Don Norman and part of it was given to me by the widow of Woodrow J. Kerns, a descendant of John and Nancy (Armstrong) Kniceley.
I found Mr. Kerns' name and address on the Family Register Index at the Genealogical Society of the Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints. He was looking for information on Nancy Ann Armstrong. When I wrote to him, Mrs. Kerns answered my letter telling me her husband had passed away on August 10, 1985. She told me he had been a Bishop in the Mormon Church and John and Nancy (Armstrong) Kniceley were his greatgreat grandparents. I answered Mrs. Kerns letter with condolences. A few weeks later she wrote again and sent a lot of data that she had copied from her husband's notes; dates, spouses names and childrens names. She also mentioned a Mrs. Echelberry that her husband had been corresponding with. In all of Mr. Kerns notes the name Kniceley was spelled "Knicley".
Nancy was mentioned in her fathers will, "....after my death my son Thomas is to pay each of my two daughters Mary and Nancy a good horse worth sixty dollars and fifty dollars in money and their beds and bedding if they should require it and they are to live on the plantation with their mother her life time unless they should marry and if not married at my wifes death they are to live with my son Thomas still and have a good living with him....."

NOTE: I copied this information from "Hardesty's West Virginia
Counties", Vol. #3, page 105.
