    1. LANDISes in Ohio
    2. Fellow List Members, I have a couple of LANDIS sources I am willing to check for people. First, I have transcriptions of all the LANDIS/etc. entries from the Ohio Census 1820-1880 that I could find. (I didn't copy the LANDERS spelling, though) If you can give me some info. about your Ohio LANDISes--their names, how old they should have been in a given census year, and the names and ages of persons who should have been in the household with them, stuff like that--I will be glad to check for them. Also, I have a list of all the deaths for persons whose surname began with "LAND--" who died in Ohio between 1913 and 1937. (But, again, no LANDERS) They were taken from the searchable database of Ohio deaths on the Ohio Historical Society's web site. If you would like me to check for your LANDIS/etc. I need their name and the probable county of death. If you don't know the county, the name would be enough. Lastly, I live in Stark County, OH and we have a pretty good genealogy collection at our local library which includes some info. on every county in the state. I would be glad to do quick look-ups for people. (The operative word here is "quick.") I can't get into any major research for people (the "anything-you-can-find" kind) without charging you my regular research fee. But if you want me to check for a birth, death, marriage, cemetery, etc. record, I will see if the library has any info. that can help you. Please be SPECIFIC with your request. The name of the person you are looking for (it doesn't have to be a LANDIS, if you have any Ohio ancestors, I can still check), their exact or approximate birth, marriage, and/or death date, what kind of a record you want on them, and the names of any other pertinent people who might be mentioned in the record--parents on a birth, spouse on a marriage, children on a census, etc. I am available to do more extensive Ohio research for a fee, and I will send you info. on that if you are interested. But this isn't a plea for more business. If you have a quick look-up you would like me to do, I will be glad to see what I can find. Happy Hunting! Lauren Landis Canton, OH
