The following website is an interesting account of the fate of the 1890 census. I got it from another maillist and thought you all might be interested. Twila Listowner http://www.nara.gov/publications/prologue/1890cen1.html

BillyBob: There is in fact a MARY FAGIN buried in this Coleman Cemetery, Wabash Twp, Fountain Co IN. Born 17 Nov 1815 Died 15 May 1843 Wife of Peter Fagin She is the only Fagin listed in the cemetery listings of Fountain County which I have; and this is the same cemetery where Benjamin Beckelhymer is buried.

A small tidbit of information: Some time ago when I visited the Pierce Township Cemetery in Clermont Co, OH I also noticed a number of FAGINs buried there along with the B'HYMERs. So perhaps some of these families moved to IN together. BillyBob PS. Yes, I'm still alive and well, just very busy with other matters.

Hi, all- This is not directed at any particular individual here. Sometimes it's good to review accepted rules of form and etiquette on mailing lists. Toward that end, I direct you to an excellent primer on the subject: http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbart=05386 Tom

Sallye & John: Received the packet of info you sent and I must say it really gives a lot of info to read and adapt. I have a lot of info to fill out areas and make them up to date. Want to thank both of you very much for all of the hard work you have been putting in for a long time. Sallye I owe you for all of the postage involved. Cliff Trimble.

Could someone confirm for me the original name and where in Germany the brothers came from. Marion vonBeck, nee Behymer

Deb, Thank you for the info on the old Coleman farm. Would you mind telling me who the Lindseys are who are buried there. Is there an Elijah, an Elizabeth, a Lydia or a Sarah? Thanks for being so informative! Best to you. Rob Dave & Deb Park wrote: > > In case someone is interested, I have a listing of the persons buried on the > Old H.

John, Sometimes I don't get to reply because of other things going on. I also have trouble sorting through and answering points of difference when there are many questions all posed in the same message. It would certainly be easier for me to respond to some of these differences if the message could be kept to one or two points - not multiple people and many questions. Hope this helps. I appreciate all those willing to share and with whom I am glad, also, to share.

Sallye: Just thought you would want to know that I have ordered copies of the Fulton County, IL Beckelshymer wills (John, Henry and Benjamin). It's been almost a month now. I don't know why they are taking so long. Also, what is the source for John and Anna's Philadelphia marriage (date and place)? Was this in the family bible? Also, no where do I have that John's middle initial was L. Where does that come from? Any word from Kay Jackson on Jesse? Hoping you can help... John Charles Tippet JohnDoeTippet@csi.com

John & Sallye: (Anyone else interested) I have copies of the 1850,1860 & 1870 Fulton Cnty, Ill. census reports for the following families. Would be glad to provide info to those wanting it. 1850: Thomas & Antha Beckelhymer. Jesse & Rebecca Beckelhymer. Anna Becklehymer & 3 sons. Alexander & Sarah Becklehymer. Henry & Elizabeth Becklehymer. Benjamin & Mary A. Beckelhymer. Isaiah & Abi Beckelhymer. 1860: Alexander & Sarah Beckelshymer. Aaron & Nancy Beckelshymer. Denson Beckelshymer. Frances Beckelshymer & 5 children. Hezikiah & Elizabeth Beckelshymer. Mary A. Beckelshymer & 3 children. 1870: Marion & Mary Beckelhamer. Aaron & Acena Beckelhamer. Aaron & nancy Beckelhamer. Note difference in spelling. I am not an old hand at this genealogy research but I am trying. Cliff Trimble crtrimble@netscape.net

John: In looking thru more notes, I see that I do have the listing for the gravesite of Peter Beckelhymer and Manerva Webb: Hibbs Cemetery, Located in Wabash Twp, Fountain Co IN. Peter: b 1820 d 1852 Manerva: b 1814 d 1851 I have the complete listing of names of those buried here also. Last names: Alexander Brown Beckelhymer Chandler Conover Cox Cranmore Drollinger Ensley Hermeling Hibbs Hathaway Huffman Kerns King LaTourette Martin Moore Oblinger Phoebus Webb Yocum Deb

In case someone is interested, I have a listing of the persons buried on the Old H. Coleman Farm in Wabash Twp, Fountain Co, IN; land which was owned and farmed by Benjamin Beckelhymer after he moved there from Ohio. I was there in December and went way back in the field to find this graveyard, thru several horse gates and cattle fences, and there are only a handfull of stones left standing now. There are 22 graves there. Names: Beckelhymer Fagin Ferguson Jarred Lindsey Prather Rariden Robinson West Deb

John: Benjamin is buried on the Old Coleman Farm, Wabash Twp, Fountain Co, In, as his his 4th son, Enos. (Enos was 20 or younger when he died, so most likely was not married.) This is property which Benjamin owned and farmed. Benjamin's 1st wife is buried in Ohio; don't have record of where Eunice Fitzpatrick Beckelhymer Hendren, 2nd wife, who remarried after his death, is buried. Levi is buried in the West Liberty Church of Christ Cemetery, which is on the southern part of Wabash Twp and the northern border of Fulton Twp, Fountain County, IN; I have the written history of this church, where my relatives still attend, and several members of the family are interred in the cemetery; an interesting note is that the church sits on land which was purchased from the US Government by Isaac Ferguson in 1823, and he sold it to the above named Levi Beckelhymer in 1848. This cemetery is less than a mile from the Old Coleman Farm Cemetery, which is on private property. Levi's wife, Lavina Coleman, is buried next to him. As regarding Peter B. and Manerva Webb, I don't have the cemetery listed. Oops. Sorry. Hope this has proven helpful in some way. I enjoy reading all your theories and am glad someone is able to compile all the data together! Good luck on further searching.

Sallye: Thanks for clearing up the story on Esther Behymer. I had mistakenly assumed that Esther France was married 1st to Levi Behymer, 2nd to John Gray and 3rd to James John. Now I know that Esther France, born circa 1777 and Esther Behymer, born 26 Nov 1812 were two separate people. Another very interesting piece of data in your reply is the age at marriage of Esther France to her 2nd husband, John Gray. If Esther France were born circa 1777, then likely her first husband, Levi Behymer, was born circa 1776. This makes him much older than I had expected. In fact, it makes him too old to have been the son of John, Jr's wife, Barbara Weddle (assuming the DAR ladies got it right when they read her tombstone as being born 11 Apr 1764). In fact, it makes him older than John, III (of Fulton County, IL) born 12 Mar 1780. Of cource, John, Jr could have been married prior to his marriage to Barbara Weddle. Do you have a family group sheet on this line that you could send me? I am interested in your sources for this information.

Some of you here may have heard that three spectators were killed last weekend at an auto race in North Carolina. Eight others were injured in the same incident, including Mathew Picklesimer, age 26, of Claremont, N.C. He was treated for a head laceration and released. Is anyone here related to him?

Hi My name is Bev Elmshauser, I'm very new to the Behymer hunt and searching for the family of Cassandra Behymer. She was born @1810 in Ohio. She Married Elijah Ward 1829 in Anderson Township, Hamilton County Ohio. Anderson Township is adjacent to Clermont County. Elijah Wards father was Lewis Ward. Lewis Ward is a brother of Pheobe Ward who's daughter married Lewis Behymer. I can't help but believe Cassandra Behymer somehow fits into the same family line as Lewis Behymer. bev Lori Johnson wrote: > Sallye - > > I hope you can help me.

Bev, I apparently do not have a Cassandra Behymer on my list born that early. Nor do I have any thing on Elijah Ward. The Lewis that you are talking about is a son of Samuel and Mary Parvin. There was no Cassandra listed as their child. We do show a Catherine b. 1807-1814, who apparently left home while quite young and no further information (as told by Aaron Behymer in his diary ), but doubt if this is the one you are talking about unless Aaron wrote Catherine instead of Cassandra. Another Behymer we can't place. Do have any further information on her and Elijah Ward? Would like it if you sent it to me, and I can keep it on file with the rest of Behymer groups, and maybe place her later. Would the Lori that sent me material on the Gaskins, be able to help you? Might give her an email... ljohnson@mailcoach.farmwagon.com and see if she has the marriage also. Keep in touch. Sallye

Rob: Regarding the birthdate of Isaiah Beckelhymer, son of Levi, son of Benjamin B. and Jane Ferguson: This is my g-grandfather; I have his death certificate. Birthdate: 17 July 1860, Wabash Twp, Fountain Co, IN Death: 12 April 1951, Fountain Co IN. I have several newspaper articles documenting his 50th and 60th wedding anniversary; an article in another line of family genealogy regarding him; and several photos. For some reason, he was also known as "Zed."
