This was my grandfather. I know very little about him, as he was killed in a mining accident(I believe slate fall), when my mother was a baby. His fathers name was Jess (96077215), and he had a brother Carse (104227663). I believe he also had at least one sister and another brother, Claude (96077166).

His wife was Emma Jane Canterberry, who later married Bud E. Wheeler (81895780), and is buried next to him, at Wallace Memorial Cememtery, in Greenbrier County. Raybert and Emma had two children Corbett Dempsey, Sarah Juanita Coon(76214637)(husband-William R. Coon (76214523).

There are five grandchildren William Robert Coon and Mary Jane Coon Summers. Corbett Dempsey Holstein Jr., Larry Holstein and Darrel that Corbett raised. Darrel later had his last name changed to Holstein.

Raybert's grave was first located, where I-64 now runs through the area. When the old turnpike was up-graded to four lanes, his grave was moved to another location in this cememtery, next to some family members. I remember going to clean the grave, at the it's former site, when I was about seven years old, with my dad and uncle Carse. It had been grown over with weeds. After the weeds and vines were cut back we located grandpa's grave by a common sandstone rock with the letter "H" on it.
