Capt. Michael Harness Yoakum

Facts of sources of research kept by the University of Virginia Records of Genealogical Ancestry, with several related descendants writings of him, there and also at West Virginia University. By Dr. Oscar Doane Lambert's published writing of this branch of Yokum family in his book.
History of the Lambert & Bonner Families with Information of the Bright, Carr, and Yoakum Families, published in 1958 by Whitney & White, Morgantown, West Virginia.
That book is where that picture of Alfred Yoakum and the three Lambert men came from. Oscar Doane Lambert and others have published accounts of this Yokum/Yoakum Family. Got a least three missing children of Michael and Betsey here. Their daughter, Helen Yoakum, who married a man, surnamed Black, is well documented with sources to be on here.
