John McLean GAFF

Is this familiar to anyone? I have a little more information. I would like to find out where John Rhea GAFF was born and who his parents were. Some of the later GAFF family lived in Pennsylvania where my husband's mother was born (early 1900's).
Thank you,
Jan

Alice Ann Sibbet would be a daughter to my GGGuncle Hugh Montgomery Sibbet. This Gaff family I have in my records and I too am trying to find more. My information says that John was born in Shady Grove Franklin Co. Pennsylvania. I am curious as to where he and his wife are buried. Any idea?
This post is coming on 9 years now, so I don't know whether or not it still applies.
Keep in touch,

I am looking for information about Maria Gaff who married Thomas Steele in Xenia Ohio in 1818. Her father may have been John Gaff and if so lived in Xenia in 1820. I think the same John Gaff lived in Stoner township, Bourbon County, Kentucky in 1810. These are only guesses. All I know for sure is her marriage in 1818.

The graves of my gggrandparents Wm (1779-1839) & Eliz Scott (1784-1851) are in Goshen Cemetery. The latter mentions 'formerly from Franklin County, Pennsylvania'. Next to the Scotts is the Gaff family, also mentioning 'formerly of Franklin Co, Pa': George ( -1851) and Sidney McClellan Gaff ( 1808-1850) with three Gaff children that died in infancy. I'm trying to find out if the two families are connected. Any information on either family much appreciated.
