You named several sources, and the one in particular, who evidently had representatives there in Clermont Co Ohio "just before" era of the collection and printing of the History. The Donhams also sent a good number of representatives to Clay Co Ind, but long before the History.

Dear Site:
I apologize for any "clutter" I have placed on the site.
Further, I have something to really apologize about. To attempt to "catch" a person that is always using, word for word, some of my humble research efforts and findings, BUT ALWAYS CHANGES ONE EVENT, OR ONE PERSON, OR ONE DATE, evidently to make something "fit" in their own scheme of things, I committed a crime for genealogy; - - - - - - - I changed one date, and only one date, on purpose.

Hi
I'm searching for ancestors of Susanna HESS b. 1804 in York County, PA and
d. 1849 in Franklin County, Indiana. She married John Morford on June 25,
1820 in Clermont County, OH. John Morford was b. between 1795-1797 in Ohio
and died 1839 in Franklin County, Indiana. Perhaps 8 of their 9 children
were born in Clermont County before the family migrated to Franklin County,
Indiana.
There is a Samuel Hess and a "John Hest" on the 1800 Clermont tax lists and
a Benjamin Hess and John Hess in the 1820 Clermon
