Hi Jan,

That would ve real kick in the head!

As editor of the Portage County Genealogical Society newsletter, does
Shalersville have any historian now?

Any suggested sources (persons) to contact to find out more about the
following family's activities in Shalersville?

The following was sent by Terry Fillows??

1850 census Shalersville Twp, Portage Co. Ohio page 116a

146/146

NameAge/SexOccupationValueBirthplaceMarital Status

James M. Hall52/mFarmer$860Vt
Lydia A.52/fCt
Lydia A.19/fOh
Elizabeth N.17/fOh s
John MOTT11/mOh s

Most of these individuals ended up in Chautaqua County, NY, but three
daughters (Amelia S, Lydia Ann, and Elizabeth N.) were born and married in
Shalersville. Lydia Ann HALL married Sumner Delos ALLEN of Poland twp,
Chautauqua, NY. These are my great great grandparents. Letters written by
Lydia Ann indicates that she was well educated and may have come from a
prominent family in Shalersville. Even thought the ALLENS of Poland were a
prominent family, her letters seem to "talk down" about them them.

I have been the editor of the Portage County Genealogical Society newsletter
for the past three years and can attest to the fact that none of the four
people mentioned, Miss Amelia GOODELL, Mrs. Ellen COOLEY, Mrs. Ida PIERCE or
Miss Carrie HOUSE, are on the membership mailing list.
However, in looking at the page that it came from, this was from the Memorial
to the Pioneer Women of the Western Reserve, published in 1895-1896. I have
a sneaking suspicion that these women are all deceased, and that reaching
them will be impossible. LOL
