Source: Wood County History, 1895 DENNIS O'LEARY, a worthy representative of one of the honored pioneer families of the county, resides in Section 29, Lake township, where his birth took place in 1846 at the home of his parents. John and Ellen (McCarty) O'Leary, both natives of Ireland. When about eighteen years of age, the father left the Emerald Isle on a sailing vessel, which dropped anchor in the harbor of New York after voyage of seven weeks. After remaining in that city for a short time, he went to Georgia, where he was employed on public works until 1835 when he secured a position with a railroad. The next year, however, he came to Maumee, Ohio, where he worked on the Maumee canal; but the following winter was again spent in railroading in Georgia, and on his return to Maumee, he resumed work on the canal. He was also employed on the National pike, until it was completed, during which time he was married at Detroit, Mich. He became one of the First settlers of Lake township, Wood county, where he secured eighty acres of government land, to which he later added another eighty-acre tract, covered with a dense growth of trees, and not even a road had been laid out to the place. It was about 1842 when he located upon his land, his first home being a log cabin, but he went earnestly to work, and soon acre after acre was placed under the plow. He became quite well and favorably know throughout the county, and was serving as trustee of his township (which office he filled for three years) at the time of his death. His political support was given the Democratic party, and religiously he was a member of the Roman Catholic Church at Maumee. He was an excellent walker, often going to church and back on foot, and in his youngest years would walk from near Perrysburg to Wilkinson, Ohio, where he would do a day's harvesting for fifty cents, and then return home at night. His death occurred 1883, upon the old home farm, where his widow still resides. Six of their nine children are yet living, namely: Mary, at home; Dennis, subject of this sketch; John, Johanna and Ellen, all at home: and Dan, a resident of Mercer county, Ohio. Dennis O'Leary was reared upon the old homestead and obtained his education in the district schools of Lake township. On leaving the parental roof, in 1868, he went to Iowa, locating in the city of Tama, Tama county, where he was employed for two years at the carpenter's trade, after which he returned to Wood county, and has since been numbered among its most energetic and progressive farmers. In 1873 Mr. O'Leary was united in marriage with Miss Eliza Ludington, a native of England, and a daughter of William F. and Susan (Cornwall) Ludington. Since the death of her father, her mother has become the wife of Dr. Buckland, of Stoney Ridge, Ohio. Four children have been born to our subject and his wife: Mary, wife of Sydney Weaver, of Lake township; John; William; and Edward. In politics Mr. O'Leary is a stalwart Democrat, has served as a member of the school board since April 1893, has been trustee of his township. He holds membership with the Roman Catholic Church of Perrysburg, Ohio, and is largely interested in any movement that is for improvement of the township and county or that will elevate and benefit the people among whom he lives.

For all the ones following the Francis/Eliza/O'Leary story I have put together a little chronoglical scenario of what we have so far: Let me know if you can add anything else!! Ron Francis Luddington was married to a Margaret Brown, they had.... Susan b 1807 Edward b 1808 Elizabeth b1809 Mary b 1810 John b 1812 d 1812 John b 1813 Ann b 1814 George b 1818 Rebecca b 1819 Jane b 1820 Eliza b 1823 d 1827 Emily b 1827 Margaret died January 1827, the births above are taken from baptisms. Francis remarried in 1846, 29 May to Susan Cornwell As well as the children above they had...... Charles b 1849 d 1849 Charles b 1851 d 1851 Francis b 1852 d 1883 1851 census of Littleport, Cambridgeshire, England Francis Luddington 67 head farmer,20ac 1 man Susan Luddington 24 wife William Luddington son 5 George Luddington son 4 Eliza Luddington dau 2 (she b abt 1849?) Since the death of her father, Francis aboout 1852?,, her mother has become the wife of Dr. Buckland, now of Stoney Ridge, Ohio. Four children have been born to our subject and his wife: Mary, wife of Sydney Weaver, of Lake township; John; William; and Edward Eliza came with her step-father and mother who immigrated in 1855, according to the 1900 census. Her step-father is Dr. Henry P. Buckland and on the 1860 census, she is listed as Eliza Buckland, age 7, born in England. What is especially interesting about the 1860 census is that it shows Henry P. Buckland, age 32, with wife, Susan and 3 children, all born in England. If Eliza is a Ludington, then it would seem likely that her older brothers are as well. George is 8 and William is 10. 1870 census for Troy, Wood, Ohio H. Buckland, head, 42, physician, England Susan, 35, keeping house, England William, 24, clerks in store, England Eliza, 21, without occupation, England In 1873 Mr. O'Leary was united in marriage with Miss Eliza Ludington, a native of England, and a daughter of William F. and Susan (Cornwall) Ludington. Dennis O'Leary was reared upon the old homestead and obtained his education in the district schools of Lake township. On leaving the parental roof, in 1868, he went to Iowa, locating in the city of Tama, Tama county, where he was employed for two years at the carpenter's trade, after which he returned to Wood county, and has since been numbered among its most energetic and progressive farmers. Eliza (Ludington) O'Leary is alive in 1900. She and husband, Dennis, and two sons, William and Edward, are living in Lake, Wood County, Ohio. They are wealthy enough to have a servant. 1900 census also states that Susan (Cornwall) (Ludington) Buckland had three children and only 1 is living. That would seem to be Eliza.

I should have done this before but was in a hurry to get out the door and on my way to the grocery store....but, with husband standing there, impatiently, I checked on Eliza O'leary. It is Eliza (Ludington) O'Leary who is alive in 1900. She and husband, Dennis, and two sons, William and Edward, are living in Lake, Wood County, Ohio. They are wealthy enough to have a servant. Does that solve this Ludington question? I guess William and George Ludington, sons of William F. and Susan (Cornwall) Ludington, who emigrated to the US from England, died in the US....could it have been during the Civil War? Off to the grocery store... Elaine

On the 1900 census, Susan indicated that she had given birth to three children but only one was still living. I did not see her in 1910 and a Dr. Henry Buckland died in Wood County, Ohio in 1902. I think it might be the same fellow. All of this took place in Wood County, Ohio. I have been doing some research in that county recently because my son-in-law's present day Rood ancestry is there. _Henry P.

Good work Paul......it all seems to fit. Can David Luddington of the recent DNA test add anything to the Francis tid pits? Ron ----- Original Message ---- From: Paul Luddington pluddington007@tiscali.co.uk Hi all With regards to Eliza, this is properly not her but seems very close to call......from the 1851 census of Littleport, Cambridgeshire Francis Luddington 67 head farmer,20ac 1 man Susan Luddington 24 wife William Luddington son 5 George Luddington son 4 Eliza Luddington dau 2 Francis was married before to a Margaret Brown, they had....

Francis remarried in 1846 29 May to Susan Cornwell As well as the children above they had...... Charles b1849 d 1849 Charles b 1851 d 1851 Francis b 1852 d 1883 Another funny thing if this is her, is that she is part of David's line, who has just had the DNA test. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss an email again!

I cannot locate her dad coming to America at any time. Ron Ron, I would guess that she came with her step-father and mother who immigrated in 1855, according to the 1900 census. Her step-father is Dr. Henry P. Buckland and on the 1860 census, she is listed as Eliza Buckland, age 7, born in England. What is especially interesting about the 1860 census is that it shows Henry P. Buckland, age 32, with wife, Susan and 3 children, all born in England. If Eliza is a Ludington, then it would seem likely that her older brothers are as well. George is 8 and William is 10. 1900 census states that Susan (Cornwall) (Ludington) Buckland had three children and only 1 is living. I did a quick search on the English records for William F. and Susan Cornwall and their children but did not find anything. Elaine

" Since the death of her father, her mother has become the wife of Dr. Buckland, of Stoney Ridge, Ohio" So it would seem she was a Lud first,and later a Buckland, and now an O'Leary.?
