Hi List
I'm new to Ripley list & live in Australia, I'm doing pretty good with the tree,
with what records I can see with the LDS.

I have Paul R GEST married Mary Jane JACKSON there on the 12 Feb 1846
but I was disappointed that is doesn't give more any info on them.
He was from Clermont Co Ohio, Mary Jane JACKSON is born Ripley about
1825 I think her father is John maybe G JACKSON.
I have them on the 1850 census back in Clermont OHIO the by 1853 they
moved to Cannelton Perry Co Indiana & have them on the 1860 census
spelt GUEST. Paul died the next year Mary Jane Gest nee JACKSON
died 1910 in Cannelton.

She has to sisters with her in Cannelton Ruhama Jackson (M) Henry WALES
but she was born in New York about 1812. Her younger sister Margaret (M) Ebenezer
WILBER he ran the cotton mill in Cannelton she was born 1831in Ripley.
There must be children between these ones maybe boys.

Is anybody doing name JACKSON in Ripley that may help me with who their parents are.
On a child of Ruhama she has a son called Henry HENNEGAN WALES maybe this
is a family name.

Thank you for your time.
