I am searching for any and all information regarding the ancestors and descendants of the 4-6 Asdells who immigrated from Ireland to Columbiana County, Ohio between 1805-1830's. They were most probably brothers and cousins. They were Presbyterians. The name also appears Asdel, Asdell, Azdell, Azdel, Asdale, Isdell, Esdell, Easdale, Easdell, etc.
The immigratns are:
1. Andrew Asdell, born 1782, and his wife, Ellen McVicker, born 1781, whose oldest child, David Asdell, was born in 1805 in Ireland. They left from Londonderry on the ship Hannah and arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in November, 1807.
2. John L. Asdell, born January 02, 1798 in Ireland. He reportedly left Ireland between 1817-1824.
3. George Asdell born 1808 in Ireland, reportedly came to the US circa 1824
4. George Asdell born March 12, 1816 in Ireland, reportedly came to the US circa 1830. His wife was Elizabeth Grafton, born 1822. I don't know yet if they married in Ireland or the US.
5. Jane Asdell (who MAY have been the mother of the George born in 1816) born bet. 1770 - 1780 in Ireland (appears on the 1840 census with 2 females aged 20-30, who were supposedly her daughters, and sisters to George1816)
6. William Asdell, born 1800-1810, who appears in the 1840 census with 1 Male 30-40, 1 Female 30-40, 2 Males 5-10, 1 Female 0-5 and 1 Male 0-5.
7. There is also a David Asdal on the 1820 census of Columbiana County with Males: 2
I have several hundred Asdel/Asdell/Azdel descendants in my database and constantly working on these lines. Please contact me for more information!
