Hello Everyone...... :-)
I just join this list as of last night. I am wondering if there is anyone
else researching this Ferguson line around Newark. Wondering if someone has
been able to find more information about this line and its connection back
to Brownsville, Fayette County, PA.........have also joined that county
mailing list in hopes of finding possibilities..........Any help would be
very dearly appreciated.

Waiting is difficult. I know I always want the answers TODAY.
I have checked the Licking County resources that I have. There are no
Skidmores buried in Hopewell Township's Poplar Hill Cemetery. There is no
Skdimore marriage listed in Licking County, Ohio Marriages 1808-1975. The
other books I have are from an era too early. Wish I could have found
something.

Can anyone familiar with Licking Co. history tell me if there were any major
events in the 1850s that would have killed a lot of people? Epidemics?
Fires? Storms?
I just found the answer to the question I posted here a few weeks ago--yes,
my great-great-grandmother, Irena Margaret NEIGHBARGER, was married to
someone other than my gg-grandfather (Valentine L. SPAWR) at the time of the
1850 census. In fact, I've learned that she married John GRIFFITH in 1848
and that they had two children in about 1850 and 1

Wow! The answers I've received about epidemics from Bill, Jim, Sandy, and

things to watch for. Thank you!

Still looking for anyone that might have information on Christina Jackson who
married Landon Tavenner In Loudoun Co, Virginia on August 21, 1823. They
moved to Newark, Licking Co, Ohio possibly in the 1840's along with other

Any information would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to determine who
Christina's parents were, death dates and any children's names.

Hi, everyone!
A year or so ago I copied to a floppy disc some info about microfilms having
to do with my research interests in Licking County. Here is what info I
have. These films can be ordered through any LDS Family History Center.
The cost is $3.75 per film, it takes a couple of weeks to arrive at the
center, where you can view the film, and will be kept there for you for
about a month. You can renew the film if you need to.

I have recently found my ggg-grandmother in the new LDS Familysearch
site--someone I thought I would never find. The information
(undocumented) that is given is that Amanda Root was born September 28,
1818, in Granville, Licking Co., to Noble Root and Damaris Barrett
Root. I have explored the Licking County web site and see that there
was a court house fire in 1875. I'm hoping some of you experienced in
researching in Licking County can help. Is there any other source out
there for proving that Amanda
For Arlene on the ROOT Family--Licking Co. Transcribed Marriage Book,

has Noble ROOT married to Harriet BUSHNELL on 22 Feb 1821. Perhaps she
is
the one who helped raise the children. Also there is a Harriet ROOT
married to
E. M. GUSEY on 9 Jun 1840. Page 112 has Alanson ROOT md. to Phebe

on 29 Mar 1827. Alanson ROOT and a William S. RICHARDS were

to the estate of Noble ROOT when he died in 1831. Perhaps this will help
in some
way. Regards, Linda
Hi,
I'd like to exchange info on the family of John Thomass REES, Jr.
(1828-1914) and Elizabeth C. WALTON (1834-1924). John and Elizabeth were
both born in the Licking/Fairfield Co. area, and moved their family to
Allen Co., KS in the early 1870s. I'd especially like to learn more about
Elizabeth's parents and siblings; she was the daughter of Corbin WALTON and
Catharine ROOF, and I believe she had a sister named Mary (Mrs. A.J. OWEN).
A family group sheet is included below. Anyone with connections, p
Mary, Have you tried the censuses for 1850 and 1860? In 1860
Solomon was living in Perry Township (p.88) with George, Anthony,
Solomon, Henry, and Harriet, and next door to Rolla Levingston and his
family (a brother, perhaps?) Ruth was not listed.
I just checked the 1870 Index I have, and Solomon is not listed.
The Marriage Book has a gap in the records from 1829 to 1839. From
the
age of son George in 1860 (25), I would guess that Solomon and Ruth
were
married during this gap. Linda
Regarding the causes of death--
From the latest issue of "The Forkner Clan Newsletter", Vol. 10 #2, April
1999, pages 5 & 6, published by Mona Forkner Paulas:
1848: North America, Cholera through 1849
1850: Nationwide, Yellow Fever
1850: Nationwide, Influenza through 1851
1852: Nationwide, Yellow Fever
1857: Worldwide, Influenza through 1859 (one of the greatest flu epidemics)
Hope this helps.

Wondering if anyone might know of the Wheelhouse family in that county. Victoria V. Wheelhouse was born Mar. 19, 1846 in "Lickon County", Ohio, as stated in a 1934 obituary in Council, Id. Must be Licking County. When she was 4 yrs. old she moved with her folks in a covered wagon to Polk City, Iowa. She was my husband's great grandmother, having married George E. Steward in 1867. Thank you. Margie Yongue
I expect to be in Licking Co. briefly this summer. My family was from
Toboso, Hanover Twsp. I'll go to Toboso and trudge through various
cemeteries. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can best spend my time?
