Hi, I don't have the name/address of the person wanting DEMENT info. so I'm posting to the list. Last wk. some records came through Oh-Footsteps mailing list with a couple of DEMENT entries. Altho' these are for Monroe Co. , not Adams Co., the second entry refers to Wm. DEMENT and says he's the first white man to land at Cincinnati.
