Now, I have talked to the headquarters of this denomination several years ago and a gal there did a research for me to see what the archives had on Pentacost or Housh and she said that there were NOTHING.... So perhaps she just didn't want to do the research, but that is where that Dorsey Pentacost was and I figured that that would be where we would find information.... back to the drawing board.. By the way we just had 2 subscribers unsub today... darn.....

OH in 1822. According to the "History Collections of Brown County [OH]" he may have moved to Ohio in 1801 [from Washington County, PA?]. He was living in Adams County, Ohio by 1806 and found in the Adams County, Ohio tax lists from 1807-1810. On 31 Dec 1806 the first Huntington Township election was held at the home of John Housh, Sr. according to "A History of Adams County, Ohio" by Evans and Stivers. He is probably the John Housh mentioned in an article concerning St. Thomas' Church [Episcopal] in what is now Washington County, PA. This John Housh was either a vestryman or trustee, "some years after the church was erected [in 1770 or 1777]". [from "The First Church in Western Pennsylvania", by Charles W. Dahlinger; printed in the Western Pennsylvania Historical Magazine.] His estate was administrated by his wife Anna.
