One of the ten children of Thomas and Rebecca Lazzell was Cornelius
Carhart, who was born in Cass District in 1829, and died on the farm
where he was born in 1908. Farming and stock raising claimed the
energies of his active years. He was a man who believed in and
demonstrated in a broad sense the philosophy of economy, and was known
for his generosity, especially to those less fortunate than himself.
In politics he was a republican, and he was an active member of the
Methodist Church. In 1857 he married Mary Prudence Pope, who was born
in Monongalia County in 1841. She was the daughter of Colmore and
Elizabeth (McVicker) Pope, and a descendant of Lieut. Col. Nathaniel
Pope, one of the first colonists of Virginia. Mrs. Lazzell died in
1891. She was a woman of marked ability and refinement. Their home was
the center of hospitality in that community. The children of their
marriage were: Rebecca E., deceased, wife of John W. Hall; Colmore
Thomas, of Morgantown, who married Etta Ridgway; Carrie C.. wife of
James A. Comley, of Morgantown; Rufus F.; Ulysses Grant, who lives on
the old homestead in Cass District, and who married Maude Jones;
Mollie J., wife of Ulysses J. Courtney, of Morgantown; Flora C., who
died in 1893, at the age of twenty- one; Nora Vella, wife of A. W.
Bowlby, of Morgantown; Myrtle Matilda, wife of W. I. Reed, of
Morgantown; Nettie Blanche, an artist, who now lives at Provincetown,
