Hi Larry...The last I heard the Allen County Library (main library) had a
copy/original..
.. I'm not certain which. Whether or not they will do/allow you to do
copying, I don't
know...if they have an original, probably they will insist they do it; if
it's microfilm I'm
fairly certain they would allow you to do it yourself (and this would be
much, much,
cheaper!).
I believe it would be in the main library (I noticed there were
several branches).
Thanks Barbara. Believe it or not, I just returned from studying genealogy
in Iowa. While I couldn't have gone to Indiana this last trip, I will keep
it in mind for the future.

I am trying to help a Gamble descendant join our chapter of the DAR. She
lacks documentation to connect the earlier generations of her family. Other
members of the Gamble family have joined through this ancestor, but none
through her direct line. Does anyone have access to the book "History of
Henry County, Alabama"? It is given as a source for biographical
information on the family, but I cannot locate a copy. I will be glad to
pay for time & material for photocopies of the appropriate p;ages, and will
To all,
My ancestors came from Northern Ireland (that's all I know regarding the
"where") in 1851. They settled in Onondaga County, New York but went to farm in
Webster County, Iowa in 1870. My ggrandfather was Andrew Gamble (b. 1806) and
his wife was Sarah Gray. The children were John, Andrew, Richard, William,
Margaret, Mary, Thomas, and Sarah. Does anyone have information on this line of
Gambles??? Sue Gamble Crawford in Michigan
Hi,
This is not my Gamble line but try going to www.familysearch.org. This is
the Latter Day Saints website. Click on all resources and enter Robert
Gamble. US for country and Indiana for state. I think there is something
there you could use.

Hi Larry,
Hi cousin. Where are your people out of? My line is out of Carroll
Co, IL, in Lanark and Mt Carroll. John "Johnny" and Mary (Reid) Gamble
migrated by river from Knox Co, OH to some little settlement in Jefferson
Co, MO in 1825. This is St Louis today. Johnny returned to Knox Co never
to be heard from. He left behind his wife and at least 5 sons. 3 of the 5
caught "Gold Fever" and went to CA, never to be heard from again. Joseph R
Gamble m Eliza Stroup and had 10 ch. Neighbors of
A big thank you to Michele and Rose, too, for their help with my hubby's

Now, to find Robert's parents :-)

County.

Hi,
I am new to the list and need help. I am trying to find my husband's
g-g-grandfather, Robert Gamble. His name was found on his son, James Edward Gamble's
death certificate. James was born April 10, 1863 in Frankfort, Clinton Co., IN
and died April 25, 1936 in Louisville, Jefferson Co., KY. His mother's name
was Elizabeth. I have tried unsuccessfully to find any census record and/or
info about this family being in Clinton County.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Helen
Sorry, can't help you. Our Gamble line comes from Londonderry and settled in
the Staunton, Virginia area around 1750. Off to Tennessee around 1810, then
up to Indiana around 1830. Some of these Gamble's around Staunton did fight
in the Revolutionary war (Captain Robert Gamble). Do a search on the
internet for the Annals of Virginia and select his name. Some of the family
did work their way south toward Florida.
Good hunting!

Dear Michele and Gambles,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for answering my humble attempts to
piece together my Gamble history. You have filled in the gaps before Johnny
and Mary and All-we are forever grateful. Where is that first gen burried,
NJ or PA? Can you scan that photo of headstones and send? Maybe find the
name of the ship they came over on? Anything definite for documentation
would be wonderful. I will gladly share what I have. I am at 5328

Hello Sharon and Larry;
I believe we might be in the same Gamble family, which settled in Cumberland
Valley area of Pennsylvania before moving in various directions from there.
We were also tied to the Pomeroy family which includes the Reids, Boyles,
Morrisons and a lot more.
Please give me a little more info. I have a mountain of info to share.

I know quite a bit about John Gamble who moved to Jefferson County, MO. He
didn't disappear. He went back to visit his parents, John Gamble and Elizabeth
Kennedy in Bradford County, PA. He got sick and died while he was there. I
have a pic of his headstone. He immigrated to the US in 1801. He loved it
here so in 1811 he went for his parents and siblings. They arrived in Amboy, NJ
in April 1811. Everyone but his sister and her hubby came. They sent their
oldest son. They came a little later.
Neither is this in my line of John Gambles. Sorry.

Thanks for looking, but I believe it is a different Gamble family. He would
have moved to Indiana with his brother John, but he would have been much
older than 40 in the 70 or 80 census. I will continue to look.
Thanks, Larry

Thanks for the response, Larry. Another list member, who IS descended from
Robert John, has a copy of the Henry County AL book, and has kindly offered
to photocopy the pages for me. I am seldom disappointed when I ask for help
from members of Rootsweb lists. Their gracious response and willingness to
go to unexpected lengths to lend assistance is wonderful.. Virginia

Hi Patrick and all,
My line of Gamble's migrated to IA also. Here is my explanation I
sent to Larry. We have a good chance of being cousins since siblings
settled up and down the Mississippi R in IL and migrated.
Let me know what you think about all this.
Your Cousin?

My goodness! That is interesting. Sounds like the same family to me, but I

Michele,
Do you know if one of the latter John Gamble's had a daughter Barbara Etta
who married Blair Wallace? My GG grandfather is Blair Wallace (so my GG
grandmother is Barbara). I have found a marriage license signed by John L.
Gamble, granting his permission for Barbara to wed Blair. Barbara was born
in Butler County, PA on the 14th of Feb. 1869 but I have not had any success
in researching this line further.
Thanks for anything you can tell me ahead of time.

I've read several emails that include a son named William Gamble. He is my
roadblock...and the only information I have is that he died in 1825, was
married to Sarah Gillespie, then Mary Russell. He apparently had a son,
James Pulaski Gamble, with first wife Sarah - although that's yet to be
documented.
If anyone has information about this particular William Gamble, please
contact me at dgapr00@hotmail.com. Thank you so much! I have quite a bit of
information about his descendants, with documentation, and w
