Ruth Bell b: 14 Nov 1821, wife of George O. Ihrig, b: 17 Jan 1821. I have finally made a breakthrough in my research of this couple. Ruth's parent's were Miller Bell, b: 2 Mar 1796, Green Co., PA, d: ca: 1838, Washington Co., AR. and Hannah Arkwright b: 29 Mar 1799, Beaver Co., PA., d: 6 Oct 1886, Madson Co., AR.
I am still stuck on who is the father of George O. Ihrig. I believe his father may have been Jacob Ihrig, or Peter Ihrig. I know now, George was 2nd or 3rd generation Ihrig born in the US. I do believe I will have to focus my research for his father in Penn and Ohio.
I will exchange information with any interested researchers. Please note my e-mail address:
