Carol Jean,
I really do not have much information on the Kirkendall family. I did have
information on James Bealor Dement but I can't find it. I will keep
searching and send it on to you. I thought the material was in my computer
but might be in my notebooks !!!!
My interest in the Kirkendall's is;
William Smith Dement married first Malinda Thornburg. Malinda died in 1871.
William Smith Dement married second Elizabeth Kirkendall, 3, January 1873.
Elizabeth Kirkendall was the widow of Daniel Kirkendal
My vote is a resounding, "YES!"

Hello,
I'm helping a friend find information on her grandfather. He was William
BARNES. His parents were Hamer and Mary Coleman BARNES.
William married Cora Chamblin and had these children: Stella Barnes and
William Chester Barnes. Cora and William were divorced so we know little
about him.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Janet

I suggest those with families in Adams County, especially those who settled
near furnaces, check in Cumberland County, PA for possible ancestors.
My HORN family came from the area that is now in Perry County, PA. They were
members of the Centre Presbyterian Church there. They moved to Adams County
@ 1800. I believe a lot of the members of that church settled in Adams &
Highland County, OH.
>From the church Rolls of Centre Presbyterian Church from @ 1800 or before, I
see the following names: ADAIR, A
Carleene-Sara Herd/Hurd/Heard b. 1800 married Levi Kerkendall they had a
daughter Sarah A. Kirkendall b. 9/27/1824 that m. James Bealor Dement/DeMint
in 10/22/1847 in Adams Co. Ohio..Looking for info. on the Kirkendall - Do you
think there is a connection to your Kirkendall? Carol Jean

My Elusive Ancestors
I am going to try to travel to Adams County this week to try to find a marrige record for a Hibbs. Is there a particular time I should go? Also, does the Adams County Court House house marriage, death etc. records from the early to mid-1800's or does some place else? Any info might help me in my search. Thank you.
