Re: Probate Records

CO_Reader — 2013-03-23 23:38:31Z

Thank you for the assistance - unfortunately it looks like there is not a will or any other probate record for him in Clermont County - perhaps he did not return from Illinois and I can find him there.

Thanks again.

Re: Probate Records

rrohan133 — 2013-03-17 17:04:33Z

Transcribed wills for Ohio can be viewed at FamilySearch.org. On the front page scroll down to the Browse by Location section and click on United States then select Ohio and finally Ohio, Probate Records 1789-1996. Each book is indexed at the beginning and there are two books per image set, so you need to go just past the middle point of the images to see the index for the second book (if that makes sense).

Probate Records

CO_Reader — 2013-03-14 00:17:58Z

Does anyone have access to probate records for Clermont County in the 1860s? I'm trying to locate the will for John Davison who might have died in Clermont County in 1865. He and his wife Tabitha are in census records for Clermont County in 1850 - Batvia, specifically. They apparently migrated to Illinois as they are there in the 1860 Census, Camp Point, Adams County, Illinois.

Various Internet trees have them returning to Batvia and dying in Clermont County in 1865 for John and 1861 for Tabitha. I'm trying to verify the information, as well as obtain information on their daughter Elizabeth.

Thank you for any help you can offer!!

I will look around and see what can be found on Samuel for you

Re: Beebe

haroldbeebe69 — 2013-02-16 23:33:34Z

Hello Joyce,
Thank you for responding to my request.
My family are descendants of Samuel Beebe who lived nearly all his adult life in Cincinnati. My findings are that he first appears on record in the 1940 census of Cincinnati as being between 20 and 30 years of age and having what I assume to be a wife of the same age group.
From that point forward in time the family is fairly easily tracked through the census and city directories until about the 1900-1910 when a number of the family moved to California and Canada.
All records that I have been able to locate, to date, show Samuel birthplace as New Jersey and the time frame appears to be between 1810 and 1819?
He married Susannah Weller.
From the records it would appear that Samuel may have been part of one of two Beebe families from Clermont County, however I have not been able to determine that for certain as if now?
I do not know the best research facilities for that are so there sits my brick wall.
Thanks again for your offer....

Re: Amelia School Records Photographs

CollectingAncestors — 2013-02-16 20:40:03Z

Thanks so much, Katie for the history you found about Amelia School. I believe my aunt and uncle Edna and Ivan Simonsen (also used surname Simpson) attended that school around 1917-1925 or so.

I would be so excited if school class photos actually existed.

Thanks so much for taking the time to look into this for me!

Re: Four Fountain Marriages before 1820

thomasker2 — 2013-02-13 21:01:51Z

I’m not related to any member of this family.

Facts you should know about the early census records –

All census records [1790 – 1840] prior to the 1850 census ONLY listed the head of household; whether male or female.

NO specific age was stated for any family member
NO place of birth was stated – city, state, or country
NO city, town, or village is stated – only the county; however some census takers listed the township
NO street address was stated
NO marital status was stated – single, married, widowed, or divorced
NO family relationship was stated – brother, sister, cousin, son, daughter, wife, inlaw, etc…
NO occupation was stated
NO parental birthplaces are stated
NO race was stated [but assume “white”]

1850, 1860 & 1870 census records do not show family relationships, marital status or parental birthplaces.

Step children are not enumerated as “step” children
Adopted children are not enumerated as “adopted”
Grand children are not enumerated as “grand children”
Orphaned children were not enumerated as "orphan"

1850 is the 1st census that shows all family members

1880 is the 1st census that shows parental birthplaces and family relationships +++

Re: Amelia School Records Photographs

katiecahall — 2013-02-11 16:23:58Z

I just emailed a friend who works in the building now to see if they have any photos. The following is from school website:

Amelia Elementary History: In 1870, land was purchased and a two room brick school was erected. Soon after, two more rooms were added. The building was expanded to eight rooms by 1924. During this expansion, some grades were held at a local bank, the 100F Hall and the council meeting room. In 1931 a new high school was built next to the existing building. During the late 1950′s Amelia School consolidated with Withamsville and Mt. Carmel forming the West Clermont School District and a new Amelia High School was built. The original high school became Amelia Elementary in 1962. The elementary school remained at that site through the 2009-2010 academic school year.

Re: Amelia School Records Photographs

katiecahall — 2013-02-11 16:18:58Z

Hello, I believe that there are no "class pictures" left. My father graduated from Amelia High School in 1961. Many of the class photos were destroyed.

If you need anything, please let me know, I am a current resident of Amelia.

If by some small chance you're still around, I'd love to get a photo or scan of my father, Charles Kinsworthy in the 1935 LHS Trilobite. He would have been a Junior. My aunt Dorothy Kinsworthy would have been a Freshman. I believe they included junior high school students in class groups. If they did in that year, my uncle Ralph Kinsworthy would have been in 7th or 8th grade. Would also be interested in buying it if you ever thought of selling it. Thanks! John
