Hello,
Just came across your message. I'm researching the Birch side of the family. My father was Eugene Victor Birch, brother to Henry Johnson Birch.
We called your Jane, Aunt Ethel. She and my mother, Gertie Strain Birch were very close in later years. They worked together in Ventura CA.
Anyway what I have found so far about the Birch family is:
Johnson J Birch Sr. b 1785 in NC His occupation was Phsician (per: 1850 Clark Co IL census) married 09/13/1811 to Sarah/Sally Caldwell. A David Caldwell signed the marriage surity. There are 6 children listed in the 1850 census all born in KY. Johnson J jr. b.abt 1830 was also a physician (listed in the 1881 Physicians of Montgomery Co. AR) He married Mary Peake 03/15/1854 in Clark Co IL. Their son William Peake Birch b.11/10/1855 in Clark Co. Mary Peake died soon after the birth of their second child, Sarah. All of the above except William died and are buried in Clark Co. Livingston township.
William Peake married Sarah Goodner in 1886 in Oden (Montgromery Co.) AR. Their children that livrd to maturity were:
Sarah Elizabeth Birch b.1887 mar. George Shockley
Robert Irvin Birch b. 1889 mar. Florence ??
Henry Johnson Birch b. 1893 mar. Ethel Hiarker
Miriam (Minnie) Birch b.1896 mar. Sam Wood
Eugene Victor Birch b. 08/22/1897 mar. Gertie Lena Strain
William Ross Birch b. 1902 mar. Lena Davis

Sarah Goodner Birch died in 1906 giving birth. William died in 1939 He was a licensed attorney in AR and a school teacher in OK.

This is as far back as I can take the family. Would love to hear from you. My e-mail is fpressley@webtv.net
