Denise, > I am repeating my brick wall as I have communicated with several of you > before on this MALONE line. John Maylone about your family in Columbiana Co. > Ohio especially. My 5th great grandfather was Henry Harrison MALONE > (spelled Maylone in Ohio and Maloan on some census records.) He was born 12 > October l834 somewhere in Ohio (some records indicate Athens Co.

I know from census records that the Riders were from > PA before coming to Ohio. And I have never been able to connect my Malone > line to the Virginia and southern Malone lines in the Randolph book. No > Jacobs at all. I have several group sheets on the Daniel Malone family in > Columbiana Co. Ohio. I'm not sure if we are connected or not. My gggg-grandfather, Daniel Malone, had a son named Jacob, who was born circa 1791. According to my records, Jacob married a woman named Ann, who was born in Virginia, and they had three children; Jacob Jr. approx 1829., Samuel, approx 1829, and Hiram C., in 1832. Jacob and Ann were still in Columbiana County for the 1850 census. There may yet be a connection, because I am not awawre of "non-related" Malone's being in Columbiana County that early, and because there are some common names; Jacob, as mentioned, plus my ggg-grandfather , Abraham G. Malone, named one of his sons John Westley, and Abraham's brother Daniel named a son Henry. (To clarify, my gggg-grandfather Daniel had a son named Daniel who married a Margaret Wiseman.) Another possible connection, Abraham also had a son named William H. Maylone, and I believe that I have seen him referred to as William Henry Harrison Maylone. I can't a supporting record to verify that, however. According to my records, which are NOT originals (although I have an inclination to believe them), we were Malones for the 1850 census and Maylones for the 1860 census, although my gg-grandfather, who came to California in 1852, was already a Maylone. Some researchers change the name to Maylone all the way back through the Columbiana County period, but I believe that is a convenience, because you can't discern the spelling simply by this or that generation. For example, my ggg-grandfather Abraham is referred to as Maylone, because he lived until 1882 and used the Maylone name for some 30 years, but when he married Nancy Workman, the accounts referred to him as Malone, yet there were members of subsequent generations who died young and were interred as Malones. I also believe that there were Malones who left Columbiana County before the name change and did not subsequently change the spelling. > Daniel listed from Ireland with name spelled Maylone and wife name of Mary > (perhaps last name of Wiseman). Children named were Abraham G. Malone born > ca. l797; Daniel born ca l783; David R. born l8 August l793; Jacob born l791; > Sarah born ca l779; Eleanor born ca l789; and one possible son named William; > The first daughter Sarah is listed as being born in MD while all the rest are > born Washington Co. PA. The son Daniel Malone born l783 is listed as being > married to Margaret Wiseman on l5 Jan. l8ll. Have some spouses names on the > others if needed. What do you mean "listed from Ireland"? I have no shortage of information on the family in Columbiana County. How did you determine that they were in Washington County, PA? (I only knew the PA part for sure.) > Another sheet I have names Nathaniel MALONE born between l670 and l680 of > Princes Edwards Co. Virginia died l732 or after by a will in Surry Co. > Virginia.

Denise Portland, OR > dunnd6@aol.com I will go back through my notes to see if I can locate a third Jacob anywhere. Regards, John
