Look for a genealogical or historical society,and a mailing list, for Highland County, Ohio, on the USGenWeb site. I contacted a small county in Missouri that way and got more than 100 pages of info on my husband's family. Sure wish there were folks in NYC and Ireland who had so much info on their ancestors! Where little is happening, it seems that every smallest event is very carefully recorded!!!

But there is probably a society of some kind in that county and people willing to search for you. Just the other day I got three pages of obits from someone in that little county in MO and learned that "the mourners were so numerous that only half of those who came to pay their respects could find places in the church. The rest waited respectfully outside as the mournful service proceeded." May good things await you, in Ohio, too! --- kdonnelly@socal.rr.com wrote: > Yeah, Maureen we Irish are a secretive lot on the 'other > side'.
