CHESHER in OHIO

JeanneCJ — 25 Jun 2001 12:44:25 GMT

My CHESHER line begins with Tennison CHESHER (b. 1811 Frederick Co. VA) in the 1830 Logan County, Ohio census. Most of his children married and raised families in Ohio. One daughter married NEDRY and I found them in Wells Co. Indiana and from there they went to Michigan. One son (my GG GRandfather Hiram CHESHER, b. 1833) moved from Ohio where he was born and died in McLean County, Illinois. His son, PEARLE CHESHER, met married his wife Jessie MCINTIRE in McLean County, Illinois. If you have CHESHER ancestors that may fit into my line, I would love to hear from you.
