With help from many of you, I have established family ties to all but four of the early settlers. Can anyone out there help me link to the remaining four? Bernard Ward - Apr. 1836 (He was the first settler in Ward's Grove Township.) George Washington Flack - Apr. 1837 Henry Ainsworth Perry - June 1839 Joseph Moore - Apr. 1837 Also, I'm still looking for biographies, obituaries and family vital statistics for all the families. See the full list of settlers below. Thanks to all for the information I have already received! Ray W.

James Blair - Jan. 1836 George Lorenzo Dow - Dec. 1841 George Washington Flack - Apr. 1837 Samuel B. Gates - Sept. 1837 Harrison Lepper - Dec. 1841 Isaac Perry Lyon - Mar. 1845 Alexander R.

Any help in obtaining this information will be greatly appreciated. I have scanned pictures of each of these gentlemen and other information on a great many of them. I will share with anyone interested. My hope, of course is that the sharing will be reciprocal but I will also share with anyone who is just getting started and does not have information. Ray W.
