Ann Thompson's parents and they did live in Mercerville which if you lived
in Crown City or Mercerville, (one being on the river the other over the
hill) many of these families can also be found in Lawrence Co which boarders
Gallia County.

I have found two William F. Burcham's in Windsor Twp., Lawrence Co.(Windsor
is below Mason Twp which is next to Guyan Twp. where both Crown City and
Mercerville are located.) in the Census records. In the 1870 census of Mason
Twp., Lawrence Co., Ohio their is a William F. Burcham age 38,
profession-making rails, born in Ohio. He is married to Celarissa age 21,
profession-keeping house. There is son William age 10. profession-doing
chores, Richard age 8, profession-carrying wood, John age 7,
profession-doing chores, Nancy, age 6,Sarah age 5, George age 2, Mary age 1,
they are just listed as "at home" This same William F is also listed in the
1860 in in Windsor Twp., Lawrence Co., Ohio.

I have also found Elizabeth Burcham, w/o W. F. July 14, 1836-Ocotber 9, 1900
this is from headstone in Lawrence Chapel Cemetery, Mason Twp., Lawrence
Co., Ohio. There is no headstone for W. F Burcham. Also Elizabeth is buried
in the same area as many Watson's. Would this be some of the family's names?
