Janet,
You made yourself quite clear and I am grateful because it (maybe) clears up
a puzzling question in my own line.
My great-grandfather was appointed guardian of his children from his first
wife about 18 months after his second marriage. I grant you this was in
Rockingham County, Virginia and in 1855, but I am now going to assume it has
something to do with establishing inheritence rights.
Both my great-grandfather and the family of his first wife were large land
holders.
I also found insta
I'm not related to this person, just wanted to share this hoping it
might help some else.

I've include the family group sheet for my Robert BOWMAN. He was born in
Maryland and settled in New Paris, Preble Co. OH prior to his marriage in
1843. My line is through his daughter Lydia who was my gggrandmother.
I would be glad to hear if anyone is familiar with this family. I must
confess I have not worked on this family much.

The reason the father would be appointed guardian of his children is due to
the fact that the children are inheriting property.
This was quite common.
Look for that property.
Happy hunting,
Found his on another list and thought I would post it here as well. And if
anyone gets more than one copy, I do apologize in advance. Just thought it
too interesting and informative to let go by.

I remember a Darryl Yost of Preble County, Ohio who had a farm, I believe on
Camden-West Elkton Road near, perhaps, Quaker Trace Road. (or maybe it was the
highway from Gratis to Camden...I just don't remembeer) He was known
to all of the children of Shawnee High School, a consolidation of West
Elkton and
Camden High Schools in 1957, as "Sunshine". He was bald, heavyset (not
fat, just
a large man) and invaribly radiated warmth and good-will - always smiling and
joking with the schoolkids. He became kn

No, you can't assume that. They would not be appointed guardian unless there
is property involved (at least in this time period.)

Jerry,
I am currently trying to find information about an earlier Ephraim Biggs.
In my ancestral family there are three Biggs marriages.
One is my 3rd gr. grand parents:
Thomas Newport m. Sarah Biggs in Butler Co., 6 Jul 1821.
Another is:
John Baker m. Rachel Biggs in Butler Co., 1 Oct 1828.
Another is:
John Biggs m. Cassandra Baker in Butler Co., March 1820.
A biography of John Baker states that Rachel Biggs' father was Ephraim
Biggs, an early settler in Indiana (before 1800).
Early tax and census records
Dear researchers,
Donny Perry sent me this info in an Attatchment, but I think the info is
important enough to post to this list.
If John Grimes wife was a Susanna Glines then who does this Susanna Glines
belong to. There association with Aaron Biggs and Isaac Glines Sr. is also
very important. at this point I'm wondering if John Grimes is not actually
John Glines and that he married a Glines cousin. This occured frequently
and there is some connection, but don't know what it is yet. Here is what

My great grandfather, George W. Harper, was born in Fairhaven, Preble
County, OH, or so we think.
He died an adult in 1880, most likely (unproven) in Towner, Kiowa Co., CO.
.
He was married to Mary Jeannette Pierson. He was an MD and father of 2. I
really want to find him.

Perhaps someone is near the Eaton Library and can check a book for you entitled PREBLE COUNTY OHIO pub.
in 1992 by the Historical Society. It's wonderful--filled with family history articles submitted by various individuals and
fully indexed. You might find a lot of these names listed.
