Where they lived in Hamilton County: In 1789 Isaac Ferris SR. wife Mary Sherwood sons Isaac Jr., Ebenezer and John lived in Columbia, still called Columbia, 3/4 mile below the mouth of the Little Miami 1789 John Ferris and wife Elizabeth Denton (John is the Rev. War Patriot) also the nephew of Isaac Ferris SR. John isn't listed on any other pages except for the Rev. War Soldiers. They lived in Columbia also. Apparently they lived in Columbia first with uncle Isaac SR., then moved on to Carpenter's Settlement. which is now called Blue Ash. This family are the first people in Carpenter's Settlement- their log cabin was on Kenwood Rd. in Blue Ash. I do have the copies of the info above, if someone is related to or would like to have them drop me an email, I will gladly send them to you, for the price of postage only! Have fun, Crystal Farris also, I have offered to do marriage look ups before on FTM CD #2 for certain Counties in IL, IN, KY, OH, TN for the yr. 1720-1926. I will gladly do them again. Please email me privately , dont send to the list, dont want to much clutter!! All I ask is that each person only asks for 2 marriages, per one email a day. Not counting the spouse as a new name.
