In addition, Petitioner asserts that she is unaware of any interested parties or their addresses, and as such Petitioner moves for an Order of Publication pursuant to W. Va. R. Civ.

After the review of the Affidavit for Publication, this Court agrees that the Petitioner and Petitioner’s Attorney used due diligence in locating interested parties in this matter, but was unable to locate any, and there may be interested persons requiring notice. As such, it is ORDERED that publication be made. It is further ORDERED that any interested party appear and serve upon Anna R. Ziegler, counsel for plaintiff, whose address is 110 James Street, Hinton, West Virginia 25951, any responsive pleadings to the petition filed in this action within thirty (30) days of the first date of publication otherwise judgment by default will be taken against them.
