Julia Ann Conner Boyer married to Eli Clark late 1800's.

tkfarrow — 5 Aug 2008 4:33:11 GMT

Julia is my dead end. She is listed as having died in Licking County (Wilkin's corner) but to date I have not been able to locate her burial info. I have looked quite a bit.

Though they were listed as married in the census, I have found no record of the marriage.

Eli was married before and had children. I am hoping someone remembers Julia as his wife and can direct me to more info.

Thank you

Charles Boyer/Mary Ditter 1800 census

I am trying to locate any info on Charles Boyer and his descendents. I have his marriage license from Franklin County.

In 1800 census Charles was listed with his wife, Mary and his two year old daughter, Flora. I have hit dead ends.

I have located a 1901 marriage license for a Florence Boyer and will pursue this as a possible Flora.

Any help would be so appreciated. Charles is the last known male Boyer in my line and I would love to find relatives for the DNA testing.

Cassius GHEEN

2mobucks — 20 Jul 2008 3:18:09 GMT

I am looking for Cassius Benjamin GHEEN. He was born 7 Apr 1873 in Windsor Twp to David and Elizabeth Gheen. He married Eva FORD and had 2 daughters, Gertrude PORTS and Elizabeth BRADLEY. Eva filed for divorce, listing unknown address of Cassius, January 1911 according to newspaper article from Newark. The last census I found Cassius listed is 1910 living with Eva's family in Licking county. Both of his daughters died shortly after their marriages. Elizabeth died in 1928 and her obit lists Cassius as the father, not as a living family member. I want to find out if he came back to Morgan County or stayed in Licking and what cemetery he is in.

Thank you

Green Hill Cemetery Photos

dedmod1 — 10 Jun 2005 2:14:59 GMT

I was just in Licking County for a few days and managed to squeeze in a couple of sessions with my digital camera at Green Hill Cemetery and took about 250 photos. I'd like to make them available but don't know know what is currently available. I haven't run into many photos from Green Hill but has someone perhaps already taken some and just hasn't posted them yet?

In any case I'd like guidance on how to trim them, in terms of whether to worry about grass around the smaller stones and what size to make them for posting and where people would suggest posting them? I know of a couple of sites which allow you to post gravestones, but don't know what people think about them. I do want to make sure they remain available and free.

Since I just got back, and haven't had time to creating any listing yet, I can't tell anyone which ones I have, but if anyone want's to send a request, I'll try to get around to checking when I can.

The photo are about 1 meg in size at present, so they can be blown up quite a bit. I have one program which makes it fairly simple to edit photos for use on a web site, but I don't want to spend a lot of time editing and then have to do it over because the photos I sent didn't match the rules for the site they were sent to; hence this request.

Family of Jonathan Jewell m. Sarah Ann Edwards

ladyames_1 — 28 Jan 2008 2:13:23 GMT

I've been reading old postings on Jonathan Jewell and find that there must have been two men of the same name in early Licking Co. "My" Jonathan Jewell (b. 1825, PA, d. 1912, Delaware Co., OH) married Sarah Ann Edwards (1828-1900), daughter of Walter and Hannah Heed Edwards, in Licking Co. in 1848. Does anyone know anything about his parents or siblings? Jonathan and Sarah had eight children (Hannah Eliz., William, Mary Jane, Eliza Ella, Dora, Sadie, Foster W., and Edith) and moved to Morrow Co. about 1852. Jonathan was a carpenter. If you can help, please contact me at my personal email, jgaudio@charter.net. Thanks.

Desperate

erinconine — 5 Jun 2008 12:31:01 GMT

To all Conine’s

Since my Pop Ronald Eugene Conine died when I was 3 in 1976 my Mom Sue never wants to talk about his side of the family, believe me I have tried. If your dads are still on this earth could you ask if they had a brother that worked at the Oakland Tribune Newspaper in CA as a dispatcher? Just to throw it out there. I know it's a reach but I just called my Mom and she can’t remember the name of his brothers.

Unfortunately this is all I know about my family aside from the fact that my father had a son with another woman they named him Ronnie. I have never spoken with him I only have some baby pictures of him. Looking for some help, if anyone has a Ron Eugene Conine that had 2 brothers living with the Conine last name as well in the Oakland area in Califorina around the 1970’s please let me know I am trying to find my roots.

William McDonald, b. 1840

pamelapst — 22 May 2008 9:17:49 GMT

I am searching for information on William McDonald who stated on his civil war pension papers that he was born in Licking Co. Ohio, Dec. 4, 1840. He married Mattie Emeline Meadows in 1866 and had one daughter, Sarah Ann McDonald (2nd gr grandmother). I do not know if he had previously been married as he declined to answer that question on divorce records between him and Mattie. Some of the other places of residence that he listed were Carmi, White Co., Illinois; Hamilton Co., Ill; Butler County, Mo; Ardeola, Stoddard Co., Mo; Donaphan, Ripley Co, Mo. He died on October 15, 1920 in Harviell, Butler Co., Mo.

There is a W. McDonald listed in the 1840 Licking Co. census with what appears to be a wife, 4 daughters, and 2 sons. I am wondering if this could be his family. Does anyone have any information that can help? William stated in later census records that his parents were both born in Ireland, and on another census he stated that his mother was born in Scotland. He also indicated that English was his second language and he was remembered as speaking with a very strong brogue. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Catherine is listed as the head of household in the 1840 census of Licking County with 2 males and 1 female, presumably her children. She died in 1855 and is buried in the Conard Cemetery in Burlington Twp. (11/29/98)

Methodist Church, Fallsbury Twp., 1866-1875

BillMartin2244 — 16 Feb 2008 12:17:27 GMT

On the 1866 & 1875 "Atlas of Licking County, Ohio", maps of Fallsbury Township are shown a Methodist Episcopal Church [a notation "M.E. Church" is shown].

It is about in the middle of Section 18, Range 10, Township 4.

More specifically, it is shown at the Southeast corner of the intersection of McKee Hill Road [Twp. Road 228] and Ohio Highway 586.

The ground for the church is in the Northwest corner of an 80+160 = 240 acre farm owned by J.W. Dunn. Other research shows him to be John W. Dunn. It is highly possible that John Dunn donated the land from his farm as a site for this church.

Two Questions:
Do any records of that church still exist? If so, where might I find them?

Was there a cemetery associated with the church? If so, have any gravestones been discovered and transcribed?

I've studied the booklet "Cemeteries of Fallsbury and Perry Townships, Licking County, Ohio" published by the Licking County Genealogical Society in 1998. I did not find a cemetery mentioned at this location in Section 18.

"Ohio Cemeteries" did not list it either.

Thank you for your help.

Robey/Roby family Licking/Harrison County Info needed

kimberly11301 — 31 Jan 2008 7:47:08 GMT

Hello
Last year l purchased a farm in what is now the very edge of Licking County, Ohio, which could have possibly been Harrison Township in 1860's. The farm was built in 1864 and was built by the Robey/Roby family. We have a photograph of Lois Robey, who we are told is the original owner. We have been told that she lived here and had 3 children- 1 son who committed suicide on the property and 2 daughters. l haven't been able to find any information about this farm or family. We are restoring the farm to it's original condition and l would love to learn the family history so that it can be preserved with the house. If anyone has any information that could help us find out more about Lois and her family l would be very greatfull! Thank you.
Rgds,

Looking for information about McWhorter

BillMawhorter79 — 27 Jan 2008 1:30:50 GMT

Trying to find out information about James Mawhorter/McWhorter b. Jan. 04, 1801 in Washington County, Pennsylvania and d. Oct. 23, 1876 in Noble County, Indiana. Also looking for information about his wife Margaret Mawhorter/McWhorter b. May 02, 1806 in Washington County, Pennsylvania. They were married in Muskigum County, Ohio March 26, 1828.

The info. I have about them so far is where they were born, married, and died. Margaret's maiden name seems to be McWhorter or MeWhorter according to thier marriage record. They were living in Salt Rock township, Marion County, Ohio in 1840 and then in 1845 Wyandot County, Ohio was formed and the portion of Salt Rock township, Marion County, Ohio that James and Margaret lived in became Antrim townshiip, Wyandot County, Ohio where they are listed in the 1850 census as James and Margaret McWherter. My 4rth Great-Grandfather James M. Mawhorter (1833-1897) a son of James and Margaret mentions in his obituary that he came to Noble County, Indiana in 1853 with his parents, about the time they seemed to change the spelling of the name from McWhorter to Mawhorter. I believe the surename name was changed becouse James and Margaret may have been inbred (Relatives of the same surename who married each other). James and Margaret were living in Elkhart township, Noble County, Indiana in the 1860 census.

I don't have access to any Courthouses or libraries in Pennsylvania or Ohio being so far away, so I figured I'd post on message boards.

Specific information I'm looking for is,

1. Where were they between 1829 - 1839 ?

2. Also looking for any information about them in Washington County, Pennsylvania?

3. Where were they in Washington County, Pennsylvania and who were their parent's were?

One assumption about who I think James parent's were is how he named his children. But I'm looking for a recorded document from a courthouse or library to prove it. I think his parent's may have been John McWhorter and Hannah Polly Early.

Here's my assumption why I think John McWhorter and Hannah Polly Early may have been his parent's.

James Mawhorter/McWhorter and Margaret Mawhorter/McWhorter

children
1. Kilborn (first born, named becouse his father John died in 1803 after James was born in 1801.)

2. James M. (named after himself)

3. John (named after James's father John)

4. William (named after James's Grandfather William McWhorter b. 1745 in Bucks County, PA.)

5. Robert (named after James's Great-Grandfather Robert McWhorter b. abt.1700 who married Sarah Johnston)

6. Adeline (?????)

7. Caroline (????)

8. Aaron "also spelled Marion in 1860" (??????)

9. Margaret E. (named after James's wife Margaret)

10. Hannah (named after James's mother Hannah Early Polly)

Just an assumption but so far it's all I have.

Brent Reidenbach — 20 Jan 2004 10:10:59 GMT

Stacie,

My name is Brent Reidenbach and I'm currently researching the Swick family that came from Martin Swick and Elizabeth Harper. I don't have any of the family history research information in front of me but suffice to say, I'm a descendant of the Peter Swick/Rebecca Simpson line. My family line moved to Allen County, Ohio and my grandmother was/is a Swick by birth.

I'm currently looking for descendants of Martin and Elizabeth (Harper) Swick. Martin was a private in Company I, 126th Ohio Volunteer Infantry and died from a gun shot wound to the rear of his left shoulder which passed through his upper left chest. He is buried in Alexandria National Cemetery. Martin and Elizabeth had six children born of their marriage: James b. 1851, Jane b. 1853, Jerome b. 1854, Ellen b. 1858, John b. 1861 and Emma (Emily) b. 1862. John and Emma were orphaned in 1873 when their mother died. They fell under the guardianship of John M. Wiseman of New Salem, Ohio. I'm looking for pictures, letters, diaries, etc. from Martin or Elizabeth taken/written during the Civil War. Any information that you're willing to share would be greatly appreciated. You or anyone having information regarding the above email may email me directly at brent.reidenbach@hoffman.army.mil

EVANS of Licking county: Timon and Mary

raconteur27 — 11 Dec 2007 8:35:33 GMT

I am searching for anything relating to Timon Evans. Timon was born in 1805 in PA. I don't know when he or Mary died, or where they are buried and am hoping someone can fill it in for me.

I don't know who Timon's parents are, but suspect that his father could have been Thomas T. Evans. Thomas was found on the 1830 Census of Licking Co, and a male in the household was listed between 20-30, when Timon was 25...but this is NOT proven, so I will not add it into my information until it is.

I do have the following census information which shows Timon and his wife, Mary Davidson Evans [my 5th Great-Grandparents]with their children. I descend from their daughter Eliza, who married George Hollingsworth.
