Arthur VanHorn & Lydia Featherby

Classification: Query
Surnames: Booz / VanHorn / Featherby
I am searching for evidence of Arthur & Lydia's PAST and Ancestral lines..........

I also believe that one of the daughters married in Pennsylvania BEFORE to whole family moved to Ohio. That
girl is POSSIBLY by 4th great grandmother Mercy Ann VanHorn.
Mercy Ann & Charles Booz married in Pennsylvania and came from Bucks County ... moved to Ohio about the same year as Arthur VanHorn & his wife Lydia Featherby ... Charles & Mercy Ann lived 6 houses away from Arthur & Lydia ... AND
the other clue to a possible Father/daughter relationship is that about 60 years later the Booz/VanHorn families has a family reunion ... at that reunion KNOWN descendants of Arthur & Lydia were in attendance ... as well as descendants of Charles & Mercy Ann.

Here's some of the sources I have ... I am searching for
difinative proof of a father daughter relationship between Arthur & Mercy Ann (no wills have been found in Muskingum or Licking county). If that is not possible ... I'd at least like to connect Arthur and Lydia to their resepctive parents ... their marriage record does not list parents.

Arthur: born abt 1786 in Pennsylvania
Lydia: born abt 1799 in Pennsylvania
Married 28 Jan 1819 according to 3 sources for marriage records, married by Isaac Hicks. Married in Newton Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
Census: 1820 & 1830 in Newton Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
Census: 1840 Springfield Township, Muskingum, Ohio
Census: 1850 Falls, Muskingum, Ohio
Census: 1860 Hanover, Licking, Ohio
Census: 1870 Licking, Muskingum, Ohio
