Dear Gail, Thanks for your reply. Yes, I am interested in the person who is pursuing this line. I have chased this elusive forbear for twenty years... Regards, Barbara

Dear Barbara: I'm sorry it's taken so long to get back to you. I've been swamped. The Garrett Handley I know about was related to Jeremiah Handley, whose estate was probated in 1825, Athens Co. Ohio, Wb 1 B p. 153. I have a copy of the one page, which is an account of the goods and chattels of Jeremiah's estate, presented by Jeremiah Handley Jr., and Garret Handley, administrators. The goods listed were set off to the Widow for her support. Signed by Abel Man, Chauncey Ward and Timothy Goodrich, who appraised the items. Dean Johnston at dbjohnston@juno.com is the one who has done a lot more on this line. He had the following children for Jeremiah: William who m. Lucinda Trap; Michael; Jeremiah, Jr. who m. Pamela Beers/Burris; I have in 1807 WAsh. Co. Ohio, Adams Twp. Wm. Hanley and J. Hanley, Jr. (My William who m. Eliza. Hutchinson) 1810 William Hanley in Adams Twp. Wash. Co. OH: 2 males under 10; 1 male 25-45; one fem. 16-24. Prob. my Wm. 1811 Adams Twp. Wm. Handley (Jeremiah is no longer there). 25 Jan 1815 Jeremiah Hanley m. Pamela Bers (Beers or Burris); Wash. Co. OH. 1820 CEnsus Athens Twp., Athens Co. OH: Jeremiah Hanly 45+; 2 fem. 10-16; one fem. 26-45 Jeremiah Jr., 26 - 45; 2 fem. under 10; fem. 26 - 45; John Hanley 26-45; 2 males 16-18?; 4 fem. under 10; fem. 26-45; Michael 18-25?; 2 males under 10; 1 male 18-26; one fem. under 10; fem. 18 - 26. Jaret: 26 - 45; 2 males under 10; one male 18-26; one fem. under 10; female 18-26. Wm.: 1 male 26-45; 2 males under 10; 1 fem. 26 - 45. In 1830: William is gone; Jeremiah, Michael and Garret still there. Garret: 1 male 40-50; 1 m. 5-10; 1 m 1-15; 1 fem. 40-50; 1 fem. 20-30; 2 f. 15-20; 1 fem. 10 -15; 1 fem. 5-10. Dean says Jeremiah was born in Ireland, but I've never seen any documentation of this. I have a cryptic note in my papers that says Jared Handley Homepage, Jason Allen Coffman; jasona1016@aol.com. I am researching a William Hanley who m. Elizabeth Hutchinson; he died before 1833. I thought he might be a son of Jeremiah Sr., since he lives by Jeremiah Jr. in Wash. Co., but Dean had his son William marrying a different woman. If you run across anything on Wm. let me know. My Wm. was born on or bef 1786. Eliz. Hutchinson was from Loudon Co. VA. The Jeremiah Handley fam. also lived in Loudon Co. acc. to Dean Johnson. Hope this helps you. THANKS. Gail. -----Original Message----- From: Barbob711@aol.com [mailto:Barbob711@aol.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2000 9:53 AM To: HANDLEY-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [HANDLEY-L] Handley Dear Gail, Thanks for your reply.
