Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CBB.2ACE/5837 Message Board Post: Hoping for information about the family of Benjamin and Susan Adams Herndon Ohler. Susan Adams b 1811 in Knox Co Ky m. John Wade Herndon 1827. Herndon d. 1836. Susan m. Benjamin Ohler in 1845 and they moved to IL abt. 1856. I'm drawing a blank on Benj Ohler's heritage or sibs. The name of Susan Miller is on the same stone with the Ohlers and would like to find her significance in the family as she is listed as the wife of Armstead Miller in "Grandmother Ohler's Bible". There seems to be a lot of info about the Herndon and Adams families but sure would like to give Benjamin a family.

The 1850 Federal Census for Knox County, KY lists Benjamin and Susan Ohler and their children, as well as three Herndon youngsters, probably Susan's offspring from her earlier marriage. That census notes that Benjamin was born in Tennessee. A check of the 1840 census (Ancestry.com) shows only one Ohler, Christian, who was in the 40 and under 50 age range. He lived in Greene Co, TN, in the extreme eastern part of the state. I don't know if he was related. It seems that the Ohler name was probably Swiss. There were also several Ohler families in Virginia. I hope this helps a little.
