Dear Peg: I just looked up my Long family and realize that John Calvin Long was born in Tuscarawas County, Ohio (not NC like most of my other Owen County connections, oops). He was born 5/09/1830 and died 6/09/1862 in Owen County. He was married to Catherine Adaline Irvin. John Calvin Long's father was Jacob Long, b. 12/29/1801 in Columbiana County, Ohio, died 10/30/1866 in Owen County, Indiana. His wife was Susan Kriss, died in 1871. Any connection to your Longs?

I am seeking information on William Larkin JONES, and/or his parents, Anse JO;NES and Laura COOPER. I have indications that William Larkin JONES attended the first three grades in school at the city of Spencer -- estimated to have been in the general time period of 1885-1895. I do not know if his parents were with him or if he had already moved to be reared by an "Aunt & Uncle, Dr. Augustus TULLEY". I will share what little information I have. Please help with any leads you might have. I believe the family came from Spencer County in Southern Indiana. TIA genejames@aol.com

Interested in the above names and more. Louis Philip SCHAUWECKER (b. 1851 OH) married Hannah GONSER, daughter of Elias GONSER and Nellie Ellen WINKLEPLECK. Lewis was the son of John Jacob SCHAUWECKER and Catherine VARNES. Catherine's first husband is believed to be Daniel GONSER (married 1843 Coshocton Co. OH). She is buried in St. Peter's Cemetery, Marion Twp. Owen Co. Need death date for John Jacob. I have families for the above but am looking for descendants who can collaborate and confirm dates, etc. Thanks, Peg Adams http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/3052/ Adams Home Page Researching: ADAMS, ATWATER, BERGEY, CODY, CRAVEN, CUSTER, DECKER, EBERHARD, FRENCH, GONSER, HACKENBERG, HAINES, HARBSTER, HENRICKS, KEEFER, KENESTRICK, LOGAN, LONG, MACHAN, McCLEAN, PARKER, PRESTON, ROW, SCHMIDT http://www.geocities.com/Broadway/Alley/5802/ Home page for the River Bend Chapter of Sweet Adelines, International

Jesse JONES b. 10-6-1824 it is believed in NC. He married Sarah YOUNG on 4-25-1839. The couple resided in Owen county IN and Jesse died there on 1-9-1888 and Sarah died there on 11-10-1912. I would be interested in the parents of either of these persons...This is NOT the Jesse Jones that was the doctor in the Cunot area. Debbie Debbjennings@aol.com "Following the footprints through time"

John McCULLOUGH b. 6-17-1755 in Lancaster co. PA, he was the son of John. He migrated to Mecklenburgh and Carabbas county in NC and later on to Pulaski county KY, finally settling in Owen county IN where he died sometime around 1837-1840. Any info regarding this man would be most appreciated. Debbie Debbjennings@aol.com "Following the footprints through time"

My links to Owen are many. My grandmother MARY ELIZABETH NORRIS married JOHN MOSEMAN JR. after both their families migrated from the Coshocton OH area. My question is what line of Norris to follow. What I have been passed down in family research is Mary Elizabeth was daughter to WILLIAM S. NORRIS and CHARITY NORRIS. I have found a Charity, daughter to WILLIAM NORRIS SR.b. Oct. 4, 1800 and CATHERINE REED with children as follows: JACOB NORRIS,b.August 4, 1825 md. to RACHEL THOMAS NORRIS, b. May 22, 1827, maybe married to ANN NORMAN, Aug. 11, 1863 MARY(POLLY) NORRIS, b. Aug. 27, 1829 WILLIAM JR. NORRIS, b. September 9, 1831 ANNE NORRIS, b. Jan. 20, 1834(maybe married JOHN BAUMGARTNER) CHARITY NORRIS, b. Feb. 25, 1835, Coshocton, OH d.

May 1837, d. aft. 1906 Child of WILLIAM NORRIS SR. and HANNAH POLLAND md. in Coshocton Nov. 28, 1839 : JAMES NORRIS, b. 1841 Charity and William S. were married March 27, 1855 in Coshocton, OH and children are listed as follows: MARY ELIZABETH NORRIS, b. Sept. 10, 1857, d. Oct. 19, 1920, md. JOHN MOSEMAN JR. Oct. 17, 1875 in Holmes, OH. (John Sr. married ELIZABETH BAUMGARTNER in Coshocton, OH. JOHN NORRIS, b. Jan. 21, 1859, d. Mar. 9, 1859 THOMAS NORRIS, b. Sept. 27, 1860, d. Oct. 29, 1860 MARTHA NORRIS, b. Oct. 18, 1861, d. Mar. 5, 1864 LAURA ETTA NORRIS, B. Oct. 3, 1866, D. May 2, 1946, md. GEORGE G. DAYHUFF, Nov. 8, 1885 EVA LAVINA NORRIS, b. Feb. 3, 1869, d. Oct. 19, 1934 SAMUEL WILLIAM NORRIS, b. Oct. 22, 1873, d. Dec. 13, 1924, md. CAROLINE KIEFFABER Nov. 18, 1895 in Owen, IN. If anyone has different information, I would be most grateful to be corrected. I am also unclear why there were two Charities in Owen with different birth dates. In 1900 there was a CHARITY NORRIS age 71 that does not calculate to being born in 1835. It could be a mistake was made by census recorder. There was also a SAMUEL NORRIS b. abt 1825 in OH married to KEZIAH DULING b. abt. 1824 in OH on the 1860 census and I do not know how or if they are related. JOHN MOSEMAN SR. immigrated from Switzerland as did the BAUMGARTNERs in the 1830's and were in Coshocton, OH before migrating to Owen, IN. I have learned most of this NORRIS family migrated in the 1860's to Owen, IN from Coshocton area in OH as well. Peggy Moseman Kohn.

Is there a mennonite cemetery in Owen? I found a book at the Vigo Library that lists burials for Owen. William Moseman(probably John) and Samuel Norris (ancestors of mine) were buried there. If there is such a place, where can I find it? PeggyMoseman Kohn

My line descends from Andrew EVANS and Elizabeth FAIN. Andrew EVANS b. 9-28-1759 in Mecklenburgh county NC and he and Elizabeth FAIN married about 1781 in Washington county TN. They later migrated to Owen county IN where Andrew died 12-5-1840. I am interested in finding the parents of Andrew EVANS. I have seen various claims that his lineage proceeds as: David Evans--father Peter--grandfather Lot Evans II--great grandfather Lot Evans I--gg grandfather. As of yet however, I can find no proof of this. Anywhere I have seen this listed there is never any clue as to the poster so I can write for documentation. Does anyone have any information on this line? Debbie Debbjennings@aol.com "Following the footprints through time"

I am searching for any information regarding an Anna E. Workman who lived in and around the Rowan County NC area about 1795.Anna was born about1776. She married Ephraim Goss on March 23,1795 in Rowan county NC. They migrated to Washington county IN about 1810 and then on to Owen county IN in 1818. Anna died there on Sept 19, 1854. This couple had 10 children and I would be interested in sharing any data. I am trying however to locate who her parents were or at least eliminate any Workman/Wortman in the 1790 Rowan county NC census. Debbie Debbjennings@aol.com "Following the footprints through time"
