I'm also researching this family. I have believed that Josiah was Jefferson and the William Harrison's father, is that true? I know that Jefferson had a son William Harrison also, but I mean the other one. I also have been lead to believe by my father-in-law that family tradition says that there is Indian blood in that line. We have a picture of a woman, elderly taken probably late 1800's with the name Lydia Treehorn. We have wondered if this was a link in that direction, but don't know. I also have other pictures not identified, but believed to be Wades. Thanks for any info. Karen

Philip and Sarah (Eccleston) Mains had 9 children we have records of some kind on all but Belle. There are around five of us working on the Mains-Eccleston project part of us are Mains' and part of us are Eccleston's . Philip and Sarah (Eccleston) Mains' had 9 children. We have the information that Charity married Hiram Ettleman however I don't believe we knew about William Pierson. We have not been able to find out where Sarah (Eccleston) Mains died and was buried, we have just discovered where Philip is buried this last week, Mark and Bev are sending me more information. Charity's brother Jacob who was my husbands great grandfather died in Yakima, Washington in 1916 he was a widow, we can not find out any information on his wife Alice (Secrease) Mains she disappears in around 1884 or 1885 they were living in Bartlett, Iowa or that area.

Surnames: Main, Eccleston, Ettleman, Pierson, Feese Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ok.2ADE/1230.1.1 Message Board Post: Karen: The only thing I can tell you about Maria Belle Main is that she appears to have been born in Pleasant Grove township, Des Moines county, Iowa about 1859. As "Belle", she is shown in the 1870 census for Scott township, Fremont county, Iowa. At one point in time, I must have tried to find more info on Philip and Sarah (Eccleston) Mains' family, because I have a note saying that the paper at Sidney which probably would have had an obituary for the death of Charity Eveline (Mains) Ettleman, had missing issues for November 8, and 15, and 22, 1923. C.E. Ettleman had been killed in a railroad accident on Nov. 13, 1923--so THAT should have been in the paper. I also see that I have not been able to locate her son William Pierson, a son from her marriage with John D.A. Pierson while they were living in Des Moines county. In 1885, William was living with Hiram and Charity Ettleman at Bartlett, Iowa, and that is the last note on him that I have. Can you tell me anything about this William Pierson? Mary Abigail Mains married Jacob Feese on March 16, 1863 in Des Moines county, Iowa. By 1880, they had moved from Flint River, Des Moines county, to Rawls township, Mills county, but by the 1900 census index, the Feese family seems to have moved from the state. So that lead dried up! Sarah (Eccleston) Main's mother Abagail Eccleston, appears to have been a widow for a long time. I think she was living with Philip and Sarah in the 1840 census for Washington township, Clermont county, Ohio. In the 1850 census (she was living with Philipp and Sarah in Clermont county) Abagail said she was 67 years old and had been born in Vermont. In 1860, she was still living with her daughter's family.

In 1934, he was still living in Washington township, Fremont county, but in 1958 a note I have says he was living at Watson, Missouri, at that time. H.H.Brown had been born in Shelby county in 1893, but his sister Blanche May (Brown) Gardner said she was born on May 7, 1896 near Ute, Monona county, Iowa. This Brown family came to Fremont county in the fall of 1900.

July 26, 1917.--Information contained in this issue was used as the source for the following: Registration for possible service in the World War 1 armed forces of the United States had taken place on June 5, 1917 in 4550 districts across the country. In Fremont county, 1386 men, in all, had registered, but the total in more heavily populated districts was much larger. Each registration district had assigned a number to every man that it had registered and had sent this prepared list to Washington. After learning how many had registered in each and every district, a separate capsule had been prepared for each number known to have been assigned by any one registration district. Then these capsules had been put in a large glass urn, and the "...human lottery.." was ready to begin operating. In a conference room in the senate office building, various Washington officials started drawing numbers at 9:49 a.m., on July 20, 1917. As Secretary Baker drew the first number he said "This is an occasion of great dignity and some solemnity...I have drawn number 258..." In Fremont county, that was the number assigned to Arthur Ingo Gee (1/18/1892 - 9/15/1971) of Shenandoah. The next four capsules drawn contained numbers above 1386, but General Bliss --who drew the 6th capsule from out the glass urn--had number 458. That number belonged to one Ford L. Burrows of Bartlett. He would be the second man drafted to serve in World War 1 from Fremont county. According to the Fremont County Herald of 7/26/1917, this was the way that the "...great human lottery to fix the order of liability for military service in World War 1...began.." The marathon drawing was completed at 2:30 a.m., Saturday morning, 16 hours after it had started. "As the numbers were drawn at Washington...they were flashed over the wires into practically every city and newspaper office receiving the wire service in the Unites States." On July 26, 1917, The Fremont County Herald started printing the results.

If I may, I would like to make a slight correction on their immigration path. When Samuel & Nancy went to Iowa, they had come from Morgan County, Ohio, Bristol Township. Samuel is the brother of my gggrandfather , Thomas and Nancy is the sister of my gggrandmother, Belinda Kennison. They all went to Ohio from Kennebec, Maine in the early 1800's (about 1819) along with the McGraths, settled in Morgan and Athens Counties, Ohio and then Nancy & Samuel went to Iowa. Others followed later. Mary Hoegh gave me this site and I am thrilled to find all this information. If you wish anymore infomation in regards to the family, I will be happy to share.
