June 4, 2005 Just to let you all know that the final posting of the text of THE COMPLETE AMISH MENNONITES IN TAZEWELL COUNTY, ILLINOIS will be delayed a few weeks. The finished version is three parts - Part One, Stucker/Stecker/Staker genealogy and historical background; and Part Three, supporting illustrations, documents, etc. Part Two has drawn many inquiries over the past few weeks. This includes the genealogies of portions of the families Stucker, Farny, Roth, Zimmerman, Ropp, Amman, Fischer, Bachman, Mosiman, Rocher, Schrag/Schrock, Salzman, Belsley, Schertz, Engel, Vercler, Gerber/Garber, and Reeser, with notes on others such as Ringenberg and Bechler. The Engel section alone took six months of the six year effort. I will be at Utah State University in Logan June 6-19. By June 20th, all three parts should be posted as .pdf documents on a Rootsweb link from the website of the Tazewell County Genealogical and Historical Society. Will send out another e-mail from Washington State when that is accomplished. Only a handful of hard copies will be made up, at some later date. Thanks for your patience. Joe Staker

Deb, Wilene Smith has done a lot of research on Peter Shafor including posting his will to the Butler county list a few years ago. I found this information at http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb/com/cgibin/igm.cgiop=GET&db=shaferwilene&id=10016 It said that Peter was born in 1754 in Germany or NJ and married Catherine Coolbaugh before 1781 in NJ. He died in 1826 in Butler County, OH. He was a private in Somerset Co., NJ Militia. He went to Lexington, KY around 1789 and to Ohio in 1803. His Children: Peter b 1781 md Sarah Watts William b 7 Sept 1783 md Jane Ryerson Elizabeth b. 4 Aug 1785 md Isaac Patton Rachel b 29 April 1788 md Edward Hunt John b.1791 md Sarah ? Abraham b 1791 md.

_http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohbutler/bio-w.html#IND_ (http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohbutler/bio-w.html#IND) Added a new section today for people with Butler County OH ties who later moved to Montgomery County IN. Karen Zach supplied the biography of the Henry Thompson family, whose mother Jane TAYLOR THOMPSON was born in Butler Co in 1801. Karen found this info in the 1913 "History of Montgomery County, Indiana" which is not yet on-line at that county's web site. Nancy

GenFest is just a week away! Mike and I are looking forward to meeting those of you who are coming to GenFest and hope you'll find it all worthwhile. Just a few notes to bring you up to date: The GenFest Mixer is at MCL, Friday the 10th, 6 - 8:30 PM. Come feed your face, meet attendees, Partners and Marketplace exhibitors. Our room at MCL is a gift from Sybil Montgomery, Ph.D of Philly. http://www.munpl.org/genfest/mixer.htm We have a ton of really nice door prizes that generous friends and participants have donated. You'll get to register for those when you register at the Local History & Genealogy Center all day Friday or at the GenFest Mixer at MCL on Friday evening, or at Carnegie on Saturday. You don't have to be present to win...I'll draw names throughout the day and post them at the Local History and Genealogy Center. If you're a winner, you can claim your door prize there. http://www.munpl.org/genfest/doorprize.htm Due to illness, we've had a couple of exhibitors say they might not make it. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed on those and have left them on the list just in case. Please visit our Genealogy Marketplace page to see who all will be here. I think you'll be pleased: http://www.munpl.org/genfest/presenters.htm Mark Davis will be available only during the morning hours. If you're interested in seeing him, plan for that. Also visit our Partners page to help plan the rest of your day or to plan visits before and after GenFest. Know that some Partners are putting together special programs that will be available for a limited time period. Others are always available to you. http://www.munpl.org/genfest/genfestpartners.htm John Straw, Archives & Special Collections Research Center at Ball State's Bracken Library is doing a general presentation about genealogical research in the Archives, combined with information on the Digital Library Initiative and the east-central Indiana Civil War materials currently being digitized. One presentation will be Friday morning and one Saturday afternoon. It promises to be very informative. Don't forget to visit the Delaware County Historical Society. They have some great resources there, including some extensive family files. Friends of Beech Grove will be helping out at Beech Grove Cemetery. Members of Ancestor Hunters will be helping to staff both the Delaware County Historical Society, the Local History & Genealogy Center and The Genealogy Marketplace at Carnegie. I can't say enough good things about both groups. The only bad thing about GenFest is that I'll be too busy to go see all we've lined up for you. *sniff* Can't wait to meet you!

There is a fascinating page on the fever that took out much of the population of Eaton, OH in Preble Co. in Beers' History of Preble Co. It happened before 1850 I think and it was due to contaminated water but then death is death and a lot of people died. But there we have a record of some sort of who helped and who died. That is a record of who lived in that time and space, just what we are looking to find. Linda in Greene Co. OH

WOW that link to the Morgan Biblio is great. Our unversity has the microfilm copies of the American Periodical Series and the American Culture Series. I might be able to find the article.

Does anyone know if there were any epedemics in the early 1830s in Butler Co. My Thomas Brannan/Brannon had a wife a 6 children in 1830. In 1840 his new wife is a widow with 2 of his boys and 1 boy of theirs.

The tombstones in the Middletown Cemetery for Joseph Kelly and Keziah Kelly are footstone in size. I could not read any information on the stones. A Large Monument is on the burial site but only Joseph L and Lettitia family is itemized. I had not discected the families and hoped the "footstones" were on the large monument. That's apparently wrong. The "Burial Records Middletown "Pioneer" cemetery 1827 - 1987 Volume 1" published by the Southwest Butler County Genealogical Society is the only location I have found that puts family relationships and birthdates. The City records do not have this data that I have found. I have entered all the information in the "card file" for the Middletown Cemetery into a database. I am now entering the Alphabetical book (only to the C's) which has Funeral Homes identified. Last I will mash the Tombstones listing into a table. Ideally all three sources/ tables would have all the information in the book. The tombstones in the Middletown Cemetery as well as all old cemeteries are degrading rapidly. Many stones are broken and the oldest tombstones are small and easily overlooked. Middletown Cemetery did not keep burial records til the late 1800's and then "someone" retrofitted the data using existing tombstones. Not until the late 1940's did the City of Middletown pick up the added responsibility of the cemetery. Now many of those old stones are gone and/ or replaced by new stones with less information. The key item here is that you may know that Keziah Kelly was moved from Shiloh/Kelley.Cemetery to Middletown Cemetery but if you went to the cemetery or looked at the City records you would only find a KK foot stone The card file records show; CardNo LotDesc Remarks Owner1 FName LName AgeBday BurialDt 0762_01 SAR19_L08 d Temperence Kelly 7/31/1840 0762_02 SAR19_L08 d Keziah Kelly 7/9/1848 0762_03 SAR19_L08 d Joseph Kelly 7/9/1857 0762_04 SAR19_L08 Lettitia Kelly 5/19/1891 0763_00 SAR19_L09 12x15' 5 graves Joseph L Kelly Feb 7, 1881 0763_01 SAR19_L09 d Lettie Chamberlin 1/6/1881 0763_02 SAR19_L09 d Bessie Hornady 1/7/1881 0763_03 SAR19_L09 d Clayton Kelly 9/8/1839 0763_04 SAR19_L09 d Joseph M Kelly 10/11/1854 0763_05 SAR19_L09 Joseph L Kelly 11/7/1888 So the only "easy" to find out people's ages at death or their marital status is the Book created by the Southwest Butler County Genealogical Society. I had hoped that the Card file, Alphabetical book, and tombstones themselves would "create" an updated/ Dynamic "book" but many times what is in the "Book" I have not found anywhere else. The Keziah Kelly example is just one of the ways people are getting lost or hard to find. When I get the database tables ready and learn how to make them accessable on the internet, then the disrecpancies between the Southwest Butler County Genealogical Society Burial Record book will become more apparent. The introduction in the book does not adequately document the sources for all the material as knowledge from the people doing the inventory work was also included and omitted on a regular basis. I am particularly concerned about women and children who died prior to 1850. Sometimes the tombstones are the only evidence that they existed. The 1850 Census is the first census to identify women and children by name, I believe. Also, from the Seven Mile book recently published I got the impression that Butler County death records began around 1850's. I can't encourge people enough to make the effort to get your local cemetery documented. The variability of record keeping between cemeteries is amazing. Thanks to efforts by past volunteers, Middletown Cemeteries records are really in "good shape"- you should see the records for Springhill Cemetery in Liberty Township- there is only information about who owns the plot. I have yet to run across the Springhill Cemetery records when it was a Methodist Church cemetery. I guess I shouldn't care- my relatives are in other states and people did keep adequate records. Thought you should know the fragility of Cemetery records.
