Surname: Bloomer, Allen, Smith
-------------------------

Phoebe Bloomer was the daughter Nehemiah Bloomer. She had a brother William
Bloomer. I descend from William through his son John Bloomer who married
Anna Allen. Their daughter Sophronia Bloomer b. 1844 married John Smith.
These were my Great-Great Grandparents.

I have a copy of the book "History of Fayette County" by R.S. Dills which
has information on Phoebe Bloomer who married Aaron Johnson. He was a Sheriff
of Fayette County and also kept a hotel in Washington C.H. It says that
Phoebe was a pioneer in the Millinery business and that they moved to Indiana.
It doesn't mention a Jesse Worthington in that paragraph but that name
appears elsewhere in the book as a State Representative for Fayette County.

e-mail me at for more info.
