Hello! I've joined this list recently having found who may well be my Oren GOODALE. >From the 1920 Census for the National Military Home for disabled Vol. Soldiers is listed GOODALE, Oren mw 73 single Ind. NY Ireland This would make his date of birth 1847 or so. Does anyone on this list know how I might go about finding out more information? Would he have been old enough to have been involved in the Civil War? Is there anyway I can find out a date of death? Thanks for your time, Marie *ggGranddaughter of Stephen A. GOODALE who states his father was Oren (Orian, Orrin) so this may well be his brother) "The ground on which we stand is sacred ground. It is the dust and blood of our ancestors." ~Chief Plenty Coups, Crow

Surnames: Hatterschidt - Hatterscheidt - Pettit Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Fm.2ADE/247 Message Board Post: The first husband of one of my ancestors (Eliza Pettit, b 1835 in Ohio) was, according to the records I have, "John P. Hatterschidt"). They had a son, also named John P. Hatterschidt (b. 1855) I am trying to determine if this is the "John P. HatterschEit" who is mentioned in several Kansas histories as being active in Kansas politics in the late 1850s. He moved from Cincinnati tand settled in Leavenworth. Since he's only mentioned briefly in the histories I've found, there's nothing about his family. Any help would be appreciated Michael Carroll

The four daughters are gone. 1855 NY State census in Richford, Tioga County, New York shows Luther (53 yrs old and born in Chemung County, New York) and Ann (52 yrs old and born in Cortland County, New York) with their son, Joseph (12 yrs old and born in Tioga County, New York). Luther and Ann say they have lived in Tioga County for 13 years. 1860 US census shows Luther, Ann and Joseph still living in Richford, Tioga County, New York. Their ages given are 57, 56 and 16 respectively. 1880 US census in Fairmount, Leavenworth County, Kansas shows Luther BROWN (78 yrs old) with his wife Ann BROWN (76 years old), son Joseph (36 yrs old) and grandson, Henry (14 yrs old). Joseph's wife is dead. (The 1880 Census shows additional information.) I think the youngest of the four daughters is Adelia A. BROWN (born June 30, 1833) but can't prove it. (That’s what I’d like to prove or disprove.) She married Elisha Pierce DEMARANVILLE July 2, 1849 in Richford, Tioga County, New York. These two are my great-great grandparents. Can anybody identify any of these four BROWN daughters or supply any more information about Luther and Ann BROWN? How about where and when they died??
