Greetings, I am seeking information on the families of two brothers who settled in McDonough Co. Both were born in MD, purchased land in Carroll Co., OH, and were very involved with Scott's Methodist Church in Bethel Twp, McDonough Co. JOHN J. FOSTER was in the 1840 McDonough Co. census. FREDERICK LEVI FOSTER was in the 1840 Schuyler Co. census. BOTH were in the 1850 McDonough Co. census. John J. purchased the Pleasant Valley Mill near Colchester, about 1856. Many members of his family [and the Hendrickson family he married into] are buried in Scott's cemetery, associated with the above mentioned church. I have a lot of information on these two and their families, but there are still many gaps which I am seeking to fill. Also, I am still seeking their parents in MD. I have a web page detailing my information on these brothers and their families. It is at the URL below, for any who care to look at it. I appreciate any help. Thanks. Doug Showalter Rev.
