I am new to the list and I am researching the name LUMM/LUM. My connection is
Jesse Albert Lumm who was born in 8/16/1840 in Beaver Co. PA. His father was
Mortomer Hampton LUMM. Mortomer Hampton was in the 1840 census index of
Beaver Co. as well as two Jesse LUMMs. I believe one may be his grandfather.
Jesse Sr. as I will call him came to Beaver Co. in 1834. He filed for pension
in 1835 and was listed in the 1840 census next to Mortomer who went by Hampton
in the census. I don't know who Mortomers wife was, but she must of died
between 1847 and 1850. There last son, Uriah, was born in 1847, and she was
not with them in the 1850 census in Ohio. I cannot find Jesse Sr. Lumm after
1840, but I suspect he died in Beaver Co. between 1840-1850. He was over 70
in the 1840 census. I would appreciate any help with finding Mortomer's wife
name and Jesse death date. If any of this sounds like a connection to your
family I would also like to hear from you.
