Is anyone researching the MOLMAN family in the Bellaire area? I am looking for Leota Brown's (1879-1956) possible husband with the last name, Molman. Thanks, Lori C.

Where should I look for a death certificate for a death that occurred in Cambridge in 1956? Dorrie in Lexington, Mass.

Is anyone aware of the location of Crab Orchard Church in or near Morristown? I'mlooking for an 1830 grave that's supposedly in its cemetery. The key here is "Church." Until now, I've been searching for a "Crab Orchard Cemetery" and coming up with Crabapple. I have a new document that states specifically, "Crab Orchard Church Cemetery" as the burial site of Robert Willis, 1750-1830. Many thanks in advance, Dick Kinkead Lantana, FL

You might also inquire if there were Reunion of the GAR photos. I know our Meigs Co. OH relative talked in letters about going to the reunion, and indeed there is a large photo of the group of them, but we can't tell if he is in it. I can't remember how many years after the Civil War the reunions were held, but my sense is that it was a nationwide thing; and as I recall, the group looked like they were pretty elderly, lots of long, white beards. E.g., here is a 50 year reunion group from Ohio, try googling for yours: http://216.239.51.104/search?q=cache:F5RJP2rFlHAJ:suvcw.org/past/33ovi.htm+OH+reunion+of+the+GAR&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=5&gl=us Nancy

Hello all, Last night I was watching The History Detectives on my local PBS station and I saw a wonderful story on how a gentlemen in New York came across a Grand Army of the Republic photograph. This gentleman from New York found this photo rather odd because there were three African American gentlemen in this photo. It was odd because of the strict lines drawn for race in the United States. The program went on to find one the great-great grandson's of one the African American Veterans of the Civil War. I recount this story because I wonder if there are any photographs of the local Grand Army of the Republic in Barnesville and or Belmont County? I wonder because Walker GOINS may appear in one of those photos because he is a veteran of the Civil War. According to the eighteen and sixty Belmont County, Ohio census, Walker was twenty-one. He humbly began his military career in the fifth regiment of Ohio and finished his duty in the 101st U.S. Federal troops. Walker was born circa eighteen and thirty-eight. He took on this military duty and fought on the front lines of Tennessee. So again, are there archived photos of the Grand Army of the Republic for Barnesville and or Belmont County?

The CD - Marriage Index: Ohio 1789-1850, is Family Tree Maker CD #400 They are available from Broderbund, and I'm sure you can find them on line.....I bought mine that way, but it's been years and I no longer have the URL, etc.....Belmont is one of the counties included. If you send me the FULL names you're interested in....that is, both given and surname....and the aprox year the marriage took place.....and, the county, if you have it....I'll be glad to see if they appear on the CD.

http://home.earthlink.net/~gverver/dnc.htm Hello all aka name hunters. Here is a URL I found on Dutch and other foreign name conversions. with a few examples. Americanizing a name only to have a Census taker misspell it. A lot of mothers gave the census taker pet names. I am a William but as a child I was called Billy. Which I didn't particularly like, as the girl version was Billie. To tease I would get the song "Oh where have you been Billy Boy" So there is always reasons to go by an AKA name. Even if by a Napoleonic Decree Many of the gals in my line never went by their real given names. This is a good bookmark for Genealogy. Lots of Luck. Bill from Ohio

"Di" in front of Welsh names can mean "little". If she was Welsh, maybe she was "little Anna". One of my Welsh ancestors was referred to as "Di Prince". (No royalty, just a nickname).

Does any one know an 1800's nickname for that? I cant find her in ship lists etc and always wondered if Dianna was the nick name or a part of something else?

You might try Diane, Diana, Dina - I don't know the ethnic background, but you mentioned ship lists, so try to find out what the name in her original langauage would be - and then search for misspellings! Also, it could be a middle name, or she could have been regularly called by a middle name. That was quite common in the 19th century also. Joanne Gaudio
