That is what I have my family tree on plus my father-in-laws and a couple
other trees I am working. I can put it around my neck and have it with me
where I go. It is great and I have one that is the larger size. I got it on
sale at Radio Shack, you don't want a small gigabyte because you can't hold
much information.

One stumble is enough to deface the character of an
honorable life.
Yes , Marilyn, I did. I was looking on the FTM at the date of Alva Fred's death when I wrote it down. My mistake, sorry.
I will get those wills scanned and sent to you in the next couple of days.

Thanks for the Lanthorn information. I had that information on

after the initial contact, I have not heard from him. I must have thrown

Thanks for replying.
I have copies of the 1874 plot maps, and maybe that's where some of the
confusion starts for me. There are multiple numbers in many of the
sections. Jacob Loucks section is labeled as "5", but if following the
traditional numbering system, it looks as though he would be in number
"10", with the section at the bottom right of Harrison township

Hi!
Here is the obituary for Mary (Staton) Cox, the daughter of Simon

Gallia County, Ohio in 1865, where he operated a dry goods store until 1912.

I looks like Gallia County has done a great job in identifying and
documenting Gallia County cemeteries. Over 500. Wow.
But, are we saying that establishing and enforcing laws to protect graveyard
peripherys is impracticable if not impossible?
More specifically, what can be done to get rid of the auto junk yard
bounding Ewington Cemetery in Huntington Township?
It looks like the cemetery and the junk yard are in somebody's backyard.
Does that mean they own the cemetery (and its inhavitants) and can d
