I am just starting research on this side of the family. I am looking for the parents of James Ohler b. July 1835. probably in Taneytown, Carroll Co., very near to Emmitsburg, Frederick Co. I can find James in 1850 Carroll Co. Taneytown Twp census records 14 yrs old but he is living with the family of Barbara Knox. This Barbara Knox of Taneytown must be a widow and James Ohler is listed as a farmer laborer. Then in 1860 Carroll Co. Taneytown Twp. I find James Ohler age 25 yrs. living with the same family. Only now Barbara Knox's son, John R. Knox owns the farm and James Ohler is listed once again as a laborer. >From the 1900 census record, I find James Ohler now living in Balto County with his wife, Mary according to this census they were married abt. 1866. Info. found on the Ohler family from Frederick County Backgrounds, Biographies shows that the family ancestor was a Phillipp Jacob Ohler who immigrated to PA in 1768 and migrated to Maryland, Carroll County and Frederick Counties. Anyone researching this Ohler family I would like to share information. I know when James Ohler died and I plan to apply for death cert to see if it lists the names of his parents. But possibly there is a Church or family Bible that lists James Joseph Ohler b. July 1835. Any help is most appreciated. Have a Very Merry Christmas! Thank you. Sharon
