My father has an early childhood memory of my grandfather's cousin visiting for a while. Possible dates are between about 1920 and 1925. The family lived in Spelter (Ziesing), WV, and briefly in other nearby towns. My grandfather was Victor Martinez Artime, and his cousin was nicknamed "Bis" (or perhaps "Vis"). I have no other name for him. Family legend has it that he was loath to pay anything toward the cost of his room and board. If anyone knows of my grandfather's cousin Bis, I would very much appreciate your posting whatever information you have.
