These links were posted to the Lower Scioto Vally list and I found them to be a great source of info! If the person you are looking for in Scioto Co. or on theOhio River died before 1860, the Scioto Co. death index will give you the pertinent info. http://www.angelfire.com/oh/SciotoDeathRecords/page4.html or... If the person you are looking for died between 1913-1937, he will be in the Ohio Death Index http://dbs.ohiohistory.org/dindex/search.cfm Betty Lou Riley In Southern OH, USA List Owner for: OHAdams-L, KYLewis-L, Rideout-L, McGovney-L and Wild-Birds-L Instructions at: <http://www.zoomnet.net/~chipmunk/SurnamesMail.html> CC: Temp.OH - Adams Co., CCA:KY - Lewis Co.

Hi Delsey, I was looking for a W. & E.D. GORE who had a son who is buried in the Locust Grove cemetery. The boy's name was Alpheus and he died on 1 Sept., 1841. I was hoping someone could tell me who this couple was and a little more about them. Thanks, Delsa

Hi Betty >>I don't mean to bother you but I didn't know who else to ask this question. >>If I go to a court house and purchase a copy of information regarding a >>member of my family who is now deceased, such as cemetery records, old birth >>records where a lot of people are listed, can I get in any trouble if I send >>a copy of it in a mailing list such as OHADAMS-L@rootsweb.com or any of the >>mailing lists. Thank you for your time. >>Bob McFarland > >Hi Bob, > As far as I know, you can do most anything you like with that type of info! Because of a few reasons. First, because it is a public record. Second the info is on a deceased person, deceased people have no rights, (sad to say) so you are not going to have a problem with the privacy act.. If you were posting something out of a book or publication ,the book or publication may be copyrighted, but a public record , is a public record. So the points to remember is that, it is a public record and it is info on a deceased person. Hope this helps answer you question. >>> >> >> Betty Lou Riley In Southern OH, USA List Owner for: OHAdams-L, KYLewis-L, Rideout-L, McGovney-L and Wild-Birds-L Instructions at: <http://www.zoomnet.net/~chipmunk/SurnamesMail.html> CC: OH - Adams Co., CCA:KY - Lewis Co.

I thought this might interest someone. Adams County Historical Collections of Adams County, Ohio volume 2; page 9 West Union was Plagued with Cholera (Editor's note: A news story published in the Adams County Democrat on August 7, 1851 and republished in The Peoples Defender on January 17, 1957, tells of the cholera plague during the middle of the last century in West Union and surrounding area.) " Need we offer an apology for not issuing our newspaper this week and last - whilst our fellow -citizens and neighbors are sick and dying all around us daily ? Every business, house and mechanic shop in our town, has for several days been closed - and we have been sick and have no heart to work. For a few hours at a time, our citizens cheer up, believing that the sickness is over, but all of a sudden we hear of new cases which keeps us almost continually despondent. Sunday, July 27, 1851 will never be forgotten by the citizens of West Union; there were, on that day, six burials at our public burying ground, five of whom were apparently in the enjoyment of good health on Friday evening: yea, some of them were well on Saturday . On Monday morning, our citizens commenced leaving town, and by Saturday night , fully two thirds of our population was off in different directions, during which time the disease raged with increased violence. "The following list embraces those who have died of cholera and other diseases in West Union and may be relied upon as emphatically correct: Frances and George Shinn, Mrs. Elizabeth Lytle, Francis A.G. Shinn, H.N. Cole, Mrs. Margaret Buchanan, Mrs. Mary Lafferty, John Buchanan, Thomas Prather, Wilson Prather, Ann Olivia Prather, Mary O. Prather, George Grant, Margaret McCaully, William Santee, Miss Caroline Lafferty, Mrs. Catherine McCauly, Louis Sanders, Alice Brooks Prather, Mrs. Jane Crawford, Mrs. Mary Hitchens, Frances H. Hayslip, Mrs. Margaret A. Hayslip, Andrew Haines, Cornelia Santee, Mrs. Elizabeth Meider, General Joseph Darlington, Mrs. Sanders and Robert Jackman, Esq. " The following persons died in this vicinity with cholera: Parker Y. Young, Miss Mary Young, Mrs. Mary Owen, Miss Elizannah Owen and ArthurMcFarland,Sr. " In this place on the 19th instant, Jeremiah Grant, aged 6 years, and on the 30th, Sophia Grant, aged 6 years. These children were twins - their parents being dead , they were living with their uncle, George Grant - they had the measles, which is what was suppose to have caused their deaths. " on the 14th ult.,(?) Mrs. Abigail Gray, aged 56 years. The deceased was a very pious and amiable lady, a kind neighbor and a good citizen. "Many extravagant reports have been put in circulation in regard to the spread of the cholera in our mist. The people in some parts of the county have it that the houses of the late W. Prather and Buchanan were shut up for several days and when opened, were found to be full o green flies, et cetra. We are glad to have the proud satisfaction of informing our brethren in the county that all such reports are false. Our citizens have acted very prudently, having seen that every house was properly ventilated, and every thing kept nice and clean. "We are requested to state, for the benefit of the subscribers of the Intelligencer, that in consequence of the death of Mr. Jackman, that publication will cease for the present.

He was held prisoner at Leith Tolbooth, and ordered transported to America, by George Scott of Pitlochie on the ship "Henry and Francis," Richard Hutton, master. The ship arrived in Perth-Amboy, New Jersey on 5 September 1685. I had my brother-in-law copy a few pages out of the records of the Privy Council on a recent trip to England. It was a bit disconnected, but basically said that the crown couldn't prove their case, but there was a "pregnant presumption of guilt." So much for reasonable doubt. I came across William while researching my known ancestor, Nathaniel Wilson: family tradition states; "Nathaniel Wilson was captured with Richard Cameron, the Lion of the Covenant. Cameron's hands were cut off with his own sword and it was returned to him. He presented it to nineteen-year-old Nathaniel as a mark of favor. He later escaped and made his way to the American Colonies where he settled in the Province of Pennsylvania." (eventually 2 miles north of Carlisle) Now this event was supposed to have occurred at the Battle of Bothwell Bridge ( 22 June 1679). However, Cameron was in Rotterdam at the time. Cameron's death actually happened over a year later (1680) at Airdsmoss where he reportedly died before his head and hands were severed for public display. Of course, there was a period of revisionist history to cover up the transgressions against the Covenanters. So, the actual events may have been altered a bit in the records. It might look better if he died first and didn't suffer. Anyway, I've been looking for other passengers on the H & F that may have eventually found their way to Cumberland County. It would seem that Perth-Amboy would be in line with a westward migration route to Carlisle. I thought that possibly William could be the father or uncle of young Nathaniel, and as a relatively young lad, Nathaniel might not be listed as a passenger. Although, as I understand it, this is a reconstructed list that may not be complete. The privy council record estimates William's age at 40. It might be possible. William also had a servant named Thompson who may have come with him. I know that is a common name in early Cumberland as well. There may have been a total of 4 Nathaniels in a direct line. My ancestor, William (hmmm...) is a brother of the last one. They and their father, Nathaniel came to Fairfield County, Ohio in 1798. Also, there is an orphan court record listing one of the Nathaniel Wilsons as the guardian of several Culbertson children. I've wondered if there was a link to the minister. Does anyone know if this work is available outside PA, like LDS or other library?

Fisk, Jr., "The Diary of John Cuthbertson, Missionary to the Covenanter in Pennsylvania" Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, Vol. 73, 1949, pp. 441-458. This last article is not the diary of the Rev. Cuthbertson, it is a historical rendering of the founding of the Reformed Presbyterian church in America and the involvement of this pastor. Fisk wrote that anyone looking for social history will be disappointed because Cuthbertson "admitted secular information into his diary only as a grudging recognition of the colonial scene." Citing the following entry, dated April 8, 1756: "All Fly from Indians," Fisk said, "Much human drama and information about 18th century frontier society is hidden behind any one of a hundred similarly abbreviated entries." ??

Is there anyone searching for GORE or GILLIS in the Adams Co. area, who may have come from Maryland, but you can't locate them? I may be able to help. Delsey

I was directed to a good web site,http:// www.Geocities.com/Heartland/6464/ and from it,I was quickly linked to another good Pa data web site,where I found the 1743 DATA. But your own EMAIL is a gem also. One wonders if "the McCalmont" and "the Hutchison" is my wife's. 40 years today my wife. I own a very old book on the Presbyterian churches of Cumberland Co,Pa that I'm going to have to reread with this EMAIL data in light. Also the Conventor section of E+S's "History of Adams Co,Ohio" . Would Cuthbertson have been added as a middle name in honor of the REV? "Adams Co [Pa] Church Records of the 18th Century' was my source. ABSTRACTS FROM REV CLBERTSON'S records from 11-3-1755 ,which was months after Braddock's defeat s PITTSBURG in the early FRENCH and Indian War ,when he's ministering MARSH CREEK,Gettysburg AREA to Oct 13,1777 in the REV WAR, which is about the date REV DANIEL BATWELL was arrested at YORK SPRINGS EPISCOPAL, NNE Gettysburg,FOR 'CONSPIRING TO DESTROY PA'S MUNITIONS" and deported.

I have heard that Chalkley left out a lot of stuff >in the final books he wrote... and that someone wrote a book regarding >that and it may include the missing data???? Anybody know???? Any abstracts are included in the web page at http://www.rootsweb.com/~chalkley/ ; some entries are supposedly complete excerpts, not just abstracts. Many entries are historically interesting, telling of everyday events and problems; entries for family names other than Scotch-Irish are also included. It is a good reference source, in my opinion, so long as the researcher understands Chalkey's limitations. There was no book written, to my knowledge, that included Chalkey's 'missing' data -- personally checking original court records is the only alternative to my knowledge. Below my 'signature' is further info about Chalkey's 'missing data' that researchers should be aware -- although I certainly wouldn't let this hinder my browsing -- there is an index for finding names, etc., click on the 'Instructions' link. Hope this helps. Neil McDonald VA-NOTES Chalkley's Chronicles - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Lyman Chalkley's three-volume Chronicles of the Scotch-Irish Settlement in Virginia Extracted from the Original Court Records of Augusta County, 1745-1800 (Rosslyn, Va., 1912-1913; reprint, 1965) is a popular reference work that contains abstracts taken from the Augusta County court records. Chalkley's Chronicles may serve as a useful source for leads and to identify original records to consult, but there are many reasons to exercise caution when using it. Before the publication of the Chronicles, the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, which had been approached to become the publisher, commissioned genealogist and historian Thomas Forsythe Nelson to make an analysis of the work. Nelson's detailed evaluation, in which the Society as well as Herbert Putnam, who was then the Librarian of Congress, and historian J. Franklin Jameson all concurred, was that the typescript of Chalkley's abstracts that had been submitted should not be published. Nelson found that the abstracts contained an abundance of transcription errors, erroneous dates, misspelled names, material omissions, and other serious mistakes. He concluded that the abstracts were "condensed to the point of mutilation" and that many entries misrepresented the contents of the original documents. Nelson also pointed out that Chalkley had abstracted only some of the records that pertained to persons and families in which he was interested. Publication of the abstracts could easily lead to the erroneous conclusion that the absence in the abstracts of information about a person or a family meant that there was no information on the person or family in the county court's records. Nelson's whole report, containing detailed comparisons between Chalkley's abstracts and the original records, was published as a substantial pamphlet under the authority of the 21st Congress, National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution (Washington, D.C., 1912) with the title Report on the Chalkley Manuscripts. Mary Smith Lockwood, an honorary vice-president-general of the Society, nevertheless proceeded on her own to have the typescript of Chalkley's abstracts published in the familiar three-volume edition. Many users have no doubt concluded wrongly, as Nelson predicted, that the absence of references in Chalkley's Chronicles indicated a lack of data; and many other users have certainly been mislead by using Chalkley's faulty abstracts and not consulting the original records. Chalkley's Chronicles can be a valuable resource if it is used as a first finding aid for citations but not as a correct reproduction or representation of the full rich entries in the county court's original manuscript records. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- An online series on Research in Virginia Documents.

1st ,I know I'm spam to some. Feel free to delete on sight any hermfagley@juno.com and HFAGLEY@aol.com notes 2nd,I ran into a new kind of spam on a rootsweb-l list today created by a [?] teacher -genealogist. Accidently,I'm sure,but it can ruin rootsweb.com lists. She was using something called an automatic reply Email software, to say" Hello,I will be gone til SEPT 9: please contact Mrs Peterson,who is covering for me.". The idea is fine, but every querie to that county's rootsweb.com will recieve that note,in addition to other answers. Say only 10%, or 25,of the members of OHCLERMO-L @ rootweb.com had that software in auto-matic reply mode,answering list queries,and answeres. In the 1992-mid 1993 PRODIGY geneaalogy,there were a few who would post sections of books. At that time,every Prodigy genealogy Email "would "age-off" after 7-10 days,and we could not up-load, and down-load to share, so one genealogist would tell another they had found some great new data at X location. Prodigy then created a location for those resources where they could "not" age off, but also, no EMail of "THANKS" could be sent to the writer of the excellent post. And, without geetting some EMAIL'S of THANKS, the people quit posting. So it is with the volunteers who are posting great things on the Web. I have in mind,among others, those posting quanities of data to www.usgenweb.com "STATE ARCHIVES search engine". Perhaps a short EMAIL of thanks to those typing hours the great data would be in order. "Always" make the 1st EMAIL to any new ADDRESS short. People change Email addresses far more often than Snail Mail addresses. I sometines address it simply "TEST" and type 1 byte for a message,and wait a bit to see if AOL,or Daemon tells me it's wrong. Not getting a wrong address message,then I type the longer EMAIL There is no need to send "Thank you ' notes to me.They are just a 2nd irritation to those my original Emails irritate. And I wish I COULD figure out why sometimes my replies,set to go privately, are private,and sometime go to the whole list. I'm guessing it is the toggles the list-owner has set. ___________________________________________________________________ Get the Internet just the way you want it.
