My SLOANES came to Richland form Jefferson County in 1827 Some of them
remained in Richland and my gggrandfather was part of Ashland County when it
was formed from Richland County. I just found out last week that my
grandfather Ellsey Sloane was living in Crestline after his marriage to Clara
Bowen of Port Huron, Michigan. I realized this when I found the obituary of
his eldest son, Fred, who died at age 16 when he was caught between two train
cars while doing some coupling. His obituary states that h
Am hoping to be able to do some research in Ashland Co. Can anyone tell me
which library has cemetery records and possibly is there a marriage record

Hi Taj,
This is probably about one of a million responses you will receive. The last
three columns refer respectively to the birthplace of the person, his/her
father, and his/her mother. My interpretation is that Ire is Ireland. Thus,
Frank Conroy was born in Ireland and his wife was born in Ohio. The 1880
census is the first one that listed the birthplace of parents. It is the
only record I have for the birthplace of my GG grandfather's parents, whose
names I still do not know.

Penny, Look on a road atlas for northern Ohio. Rowsburg is 6 miles east of
exit 186 Interstate 71 - on US 250. So it is about 10-12 miles east of
Ashland.

Hi,
Could someone tell me if there is or was in the mid 1800s a town by the name
of Rowsburg in Ashland Co. Looking for the place of marriage of William H.
Smith to Mary Ann Shaffer. They were married by H. T. Strauch, Minister of
the Gospel in what looks like Rowsburg. The record was filed in Ashland Co.
Probate Court July 11th, 1867. I am hoping to find some church records on
this and or the birth of several of their children.
Thanks for your time

The Ashland Press dated 1 Feb. 1899 ran the obit for my gr. gr. grandmother,
Sarah Baker Wireman and stated her home was on Broad St. Ashland, OH. How
can I obtain the exact number address and perhaps a history of the house.
Thank you.

Taj,
The reason the children have IRE after their names is that their father was
born in Ireland. The first column heading there is Name, then age, then
relationship to head of household, next is occupation. The 5th column is
birthplace, the next is birthplace of father and the last is birthplace of
mother.
