What does LO standfor after a persons name in the 1910 MiraCode Index for PA? Martha

I thought this information might be of interest for those who had ancestors that came from PA. It also gives you a chance to check out the Census information from ancestry.com. I found it to be very helpful and was able to locate several people that I had been looking for.

Looking for burial information Oliver J. Swaney, a lawyer from St. Clairsville who died on January 15, 1891 at the age of 71. He married my great, great grandmother, Sarah E. Pennington, in 1877 and "adopted" her four children. Any help appreciated. Chuck Feeley Xenia, Ohio.

Bonnie; Thank you very much. It is interesting that you noticed that there were Brokaws there. In Samuel Deaves probate records a Daniel Brocaw is named as guardian for Eliza Deaves who married Samuel McCollough, this most be the right church or area. I will send probate separately.

Hello Belmont; I am new to the list. Could someone please help me find Eliza Deaves' gravestone, she was born Quaker in New Athens,Harrison Co. She was married to Samuel McCollough of Harrison Co, but the Belmont rootsweb 1880 census index show a Samuel McCollough being in Belmont Co in 1880 census. I also know that his father, Robert McCullough is buried in Crabapple Cemetery, Belmont Co. and would appreciate if someone could check the cemetary listings for them also. Searching the OHBELMON-L@rootsweb.com mail archives I see that the two following publication have information on the Crabapple Cemetery: 1).Tombstone Inscriptions & Family Records of Belmont Co.,Oh by Esther Weygandt Powell 2).Cemeteries in Wheeling Twp., Belmont Co., OH" by Richard V.Moore Robert MCCULLOUGH 17 JUN 1823 in Harrison, OH Burial: Crabapple church, Wheeling twp, Belmont.

Dear listers, Hi. I am new to this list but belong to many others close to Belmont. I am looking for information on my brick wall, Thomas N. Stanton, whose children were sent to the Newark Poor House while residents of Guernsey Co. in 1855. I believe Thomas to be the son of Enoch Stanton of Belmont Co., Somerset Twp and descended from the NC Stantons of Jefferson and Belmont. Thomas shows up in the 1850 Ohio census for Guernsey Co., Somerset Twp. as living with Enoch and Mary Stanton. This Thomas is probably their son but is listed as a labourer as he was 22 at the time and most adult male's professions were listed. Listed in Enoch (60) and Mary (60) Stanton's household was a daughter, Ruthannah (21) an Elizabeth Johnson (6) and a Charlotte South (25) also from RI and her daughter Mary F. South (2). There is also another Thomas Stanton in Pease Twp and with a wife named Elizabeth which my Thomas was supposed to have also, but there are too many other children and he would have been too old as my Thomas served in the Navy during the Civil War and although that Thomas was 37 in the 1850 census, in 1862 he would have been 49 and although others served of that age, they were mostly volunteers later in the war and not up to the rigorous life of a sailor on a gunboat in the Mississippi which Thomas was. This Thomas would have been 34 and in much better shape to fill that role. Plus the fact he was supposed to still be around for my grandparents wedding in 1908. That would have made the one from Pease twp 95 and a little old. No men in my family have lived that long so Enoch's son, who would have been 80 in 1908, makes more sense. I would appreciate anyone recognizing this family or the people living with them to contact me. I am also researching Shirer, Shirrar, Shirar, Decker, Adams, Werts, Cummins, Cummings, McKee, McKey, McFarland, Humphrey, Fields, Walters and others in nearby Muskingum, Coshocton, Licking, Knox and Holmes counties. Also researching Scheurer and Kirby from Berks Co., PA and Somerset Co., PA. I also own a copy of "Our Ancestors the Stantons" which chronicles the Stantons of Belmont and Jefferson Counties, late of NC and RI, and have been putting the book on-line at my web site for all Stanton researchers. I'd appreciate any help possible. Denny Shirer - drdx@neo.rr.com Shirer Family Genealogy Project http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~mysong

I am looking for info on Elmer Ellsworth Miller of Rush Run Ohio.  Dob 1800-1900.   He married a Margaret Ann Deighton of Wellsburg WV.  Their daughter is now in her late 90's and is interested in her father family.  Thanks, Merry Ann

Looking for descendants of John Franklin Fautty, born @ 1858, died 1928 in Belmont County. First wife Malissa, second wife may have been Virginia. He is buried with Malissa in Dover Cemetery, Powhattan Point, Ohio. I am hoping to learn more of the Fautty family, as I believe my g grandmother was his sister, Sarah F. Fautty. Sarah married John W. Junkins. Martha

I already posted the following message on the Harrison Co., WV list but thought I'd give you guys a try - You've all always been so helpful & seem to have so many resources. Sorry, if it seems I'm taking advantage. The Clarks I'm after are the parents of Mary Clark who married Golden Toothman. The Toothman's moved from Monongalia WV to Belmont Co. (Jacobsburg in Smith Twp, specifically) in about 1901. The daughter, Mary, died in 1911 in Jacobsburg. My main goals are to find out Samuel's birthplace & parentage and his wife, Mary's maiden name. But I'll take any little tidbit. Nancy Albritton Peoria, IL ******************************************************* Anyone know anything about a Samuel Clark born ca 1805, died between 1845-1849? He married Mary ? about 1830 and had at least three children - Mary b. Mar 1834, George M b. ca 1843 & Martha A b. ca 1845. His widow, Mary, married George Youst. All these events, with the possible exception of Samuel's birth, took place in or near Mononalia Co., WV. Any information at will be much appreciated. Nancy Peoria, IL

Found in the 1850 and 1860 census of Pultney township, Ohio ,Bellaire the surname of Stewart and was wondering if anyone had other information on this family! Thank you so much - Lynn
