Hi list! Cindy keeps coming up with such good questions!! She asks if Jacob Kime Sr. ever was in Seneca Co. Ohio. Let me first say that 4 1/2 years ago I inherited Kime information when my mother-in-law died. This is what gave me the "gene bug". The research had been done by Edward B. Kime (1911-1996) and given to the rest of the family without much documentation. His son Edward, Jr. now has all his father's research papers and documents. We have slowly been sharing this information. Let me share what Edward Jr. sent to me Feb. 1998: " I have copies of land transactions starting with Valentine and going through the purchases and transfers between Jacob and his sons in Seneca, Oh. in 1825. These documents seem to show that he went to OH with the family, purchased 320 acres from the US govenment and promptly transferred that acreage in four parcels to his sons." Edward Jr. also found a marriage date of Jacob Kime and Euphemia Hodges, Dec. 18, 1827 in Jefferson County, Virginia (now W.V.) So Jacob left Ohio by 1827. If you check the on line info from Bureau of Land Management we find: April 1, 1825, Jacob Kime bought 320 acres in Seneca Co. (N1/2,Sec32,Twp.2-N,Range 14-E) April 1, 1825 Jacob Kime bought 90.7 Acres, Seneca Co. (E1/2SW, Sec6,Twp2-N,Range 15-E) April 1, 1825, John Kime bought 80 acres, Seneca Co. (W1/2NE, Sec 15, Twp 2 -N, Range 14-E) April 1, 1825, John Kime bought 80 acres, Seneca Co. (E1/2NE, Sec15 Twp 2-N, Range 14-E) May 5, 1826, William Kime bought 160 acres, Seneca Co. (SW Sec 3, Twp 2-N, Range 14-E) May 25, 1832, Daniel Kime bought 80 acres, Seneca Co. (W1/2SW Sec 34 Twp. 3-N, Range 14-E) May 6, 1835, David Kime bought 40 acres, Seneca Co. (SENE Sec 27, Twp 3-N. Range 14-E) December 7, 1835, Jacob Kime bought 40 acres, Seneca Co. ( NESW, Sec 34, Twp 3-N, Range 14-E) {Probably Jacob Jr.} Hope this helps some. Maybe Edward II will add more to the list someday.
