This is my relative..and in re-reading your message I saw the name Smith..and wondered if you had any info on this Reuben Smith. He dies between 1842 and 1848..Hannah marries Kenneth McCoy in 1848 in Brown County. Apparently in the history of Adams County book there is some mention of this, but I don't have access to the book at all. Hannah's maiden name was KNIGHT..and she was born in NY. There are Knight families right next to McCoy in Brown County..a James and a John B..so wonder if you might peruse your book and see what you can dig up. I'm at a brick wall over this one. Apparently Hannah and Reuben were received into the church . It also mentions that Hannah McCoy died 21 Aug 1872 in Clayton..do you know where she is buried? thanks for any help you can offer..as I say I"M STUCK! Rick.
