I am looking for the surname of Merrill in the Louisa Co area in the 1800's. They were around Columbus City/Junction and were merchants. The first names I'm looking for are Peter, Sr & Jr, George, John, Asa, and I'm not sure who else. I'm wondering if there would be any records of their shopkeeping. I am also interested to know if there is possibly any desendants of this family still in the area. Any help or direction is much appreciated. Thanks Jan
