Dear Listers,
Is there anyone who could do a look up for me on a
marriage of Jeremiah (Jerry) FRENCH and Lydia SMITH
for April 13, 1837. I'm trying to locate parents of
either.
Thank you,
Ruth Clewis
Hi
I checked the 1860 census for Athens Township in Athens County and couldn't
find your George W. Peters. The quality for this part of the census was
substandard on the census CD I have so maybe I could have overlooked it or
couldn't make it out. Sorry.

One of my collateral relatives, Morse Sterling, moved from Athens Co., OH
and by 1850 was in Greene Co., Illinois. By 1860 he was in neighboring
Macoupin Co., IL (along with my direct ancestor, his believed brother, James
Sterling). In northwestern Macoupin Co., and I believe also in southeastern
Greene Co. was Apple Creek. This may be a coincidence, but it certainly
rang a bell with me. I would not be surprised if other people from Athens
Co. moved to Greene and Macoupin Counties, IL. The Illinois Sta

Does anyone have access to the 1910 Athens County Census or is it available online? I am looking for Freeman Marshall Teeters. He was born in 1901 in Athens County. I found him in the 1920 Census. He was living with his mother Emma Smith. I know that Emma married a Smith. So it looks like she married this Smith sometime between 1901 and 1920. However, only Freeman and his mother Emma was listed in the 1920 Census. I don't know where the Smith man went to. I do know that she had 4 children by him. I am tryin

It does a good job of explaining why we should not use it but also tells
exactly what damage it does to the stone.

Hi listers,
I was very blessed to have a person give me the information that I
was searching for on the 1860 census. My Lydia Nye was listed in Dover Twp
living with George Nye (her son), age 35. Lydia was listed as age 73. Now,
I know that census information is not incredibly accurate, but age 73 puts
her 5 years younger than her tombstone says she is. Does anyone have the
1850 Census? Can anyone provide me with information on Lydia NYE, probably
in Dover Twp? Her correct age can help me piece toget
Hi listers!
I wonder if anyone has an 1860 census published for Athens County.
I am looking for information on Lydia NYE in the 1860 census. She died in
1862, but I am hoping for the information as to where she was born and the
year that she was born. Who she was living with (if anyone) would be great
information too. Thanks for your time and attention to this.

Is anyone working on the J. Harvey Williams family of Athens Co?
He had a son John Q Williams born abt 1861, Lodi Twp, died Dec 5, 1938.
At that time John's living siblings were Lucy, Charles, and Isaac. This
isn't my family. I'm trying to find a line to get a friend into DAR.
Boy, I don't want to try to sort out the Williams family if some angel
has already done it. I'd rather work on more research books for you
all. I don't do them alone - I mostly edit. The last two are:

Good Morning All.
Next Sunday September 17, 2000. There is a Boudinot reunion in
Stockport, Ohio. I was wondering if anyone on this list will be there.?
I am in NJ and not sure if Stockport is in Athens Co or not, but since
Boudinot's were in Athens County for years and still are I just wanted to
post this.
Have a nice day..

I just returned from a most wonderful meeting of relatives that we never
knew existed until about 6 months ago. We found them (and they found
us!) thanks to the internet and genealogical web sites. The half-great
aunt that I met has also been looking for a place that she believes her
dad was either born in or near or lived when he was very young. She
says she was there when she was VERY young, about 75 years ago. She
thinks it was in Athens County, OH or very near Athens County. She

Thanks for the information about the "fill in the blank" - family history. I
started a correspondence file for them at the Athens County Genealogy Chapter
library and they are filed under "RIP-OFFS". I did purchase a Schumacher book
some years ago which I used in my genealogy speeches as a bad example. Before we
all had computers it would have been one way to get a mailing list for your own
family history but now I can't even give them that much.

Regarding the query about Oberholzer and Cone possibly marrying in
Switzerland before coming to America, I suppose it is possible. However,
there were Cone families in Athens Co., OH. They came to Athens Co. around
1818, at the same time as their in-laws, the Sterling families, after
spending perhaps twenty years in New York, in and around Chenango Co. The
Cone and Sterling families came to New York from East Haddam, Middlesex Co.,

although his pob remains MD. Thanx very much for any help that you can give

If you are talking about the present day Alexander Presbyterian Church, I
can give you a little information that may help. My gg grandfather, Rev TA
Welsh was one of the early ministers of this church. (His portrait hangs in
the room behind the sanctuary.) When he was minister, it was a Cumberland
Presbyterian Church - Cumberland being the sect, as was the current
Harrisonville Pres. Church in Meigs. Of which he is recognized as being the
founder. Rev Welsh and his wife, Jane, are buried in the "n

that it might be informative to send the below info to the list in general.
There is no bill in congress to do anything of the sort mentioned, 5-cent

If, in the future you will check the following site before forwarding this
sort of thing, it will save a lot of people, on a lot of lists, a great deal
of time and aggravation.

Does any older survey exist for those buried in the old cemetery between Alexander
Presbyterian Church and U.S. Route 50, then the one conducted by the now defunct Alexander
Genealogy organization? Original records were lost and not all headstones are legible at
this time. Too, is this older cemetery, as listed above, the Cumberland Cemetery? I've seen
a map that would indicate Cumberland was on the same side of the road, but farther west,
then that would be for those buried beside/behind Alexander Presbyte
Looking for a George W. Peters who appears in the 1850 census in Athens
Twp. Can someone do a lookup for the 1860 census to see if he was still
in Athens County. I had assumed his children were born in Brown County
and am trying to determine when the family moved to Brown.
