Hi Sharon, On the 1820 census there are two Douglas families. One is George Douglas in Madison Twp. and the other is Joseph Douglas in Milford Twp. The census doesn't list all members. Not until 1850 does the census list all the members of the household. In looking on Familysearch.org, I found the following marriage: Husband JOHN WILLIS Wife HANNAH DOUGLAS Marriage: 02 MAR 1829 , Butler, Ohio ------------------------------------------------------ Then, I found this one Husband ELLIS SQUIRE Marriage: 18 NOV 1833 , Butler, Ohio Wife HANNA WILLS Marriage: 18 NOV 1833 , Butler, Ohio The records do not show a town.

Would SKS please do a look up for a Hannah DOUGLAS in the 1820 Butler Co.census? Hanah married her first husband, Jonathan WILLS some time prior to 1829. Jonathan died circa 1832 and she then married Ellis SQUIRER in 1835 in Butler Co. I am trying to find out where and when her an Jonathan were married and in what city her and SQUIRER were married. Also need her parents names. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sharon [email protected] "One Nation Under God" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?

Hi, all. The following message was posted to the OHGenWeb email list for county webmasters. Some of you may have had contact with Susan Kendall and/or her work. Mrs. Kendall's web site mentioned below, at _http://66.213.53.5/marriage/search.cfm_ (http://66.213.53.5/marriage/search.cfm) is a good resource for recent obituaries around Eaton, OH and might be useful to people on this list, too. The search is set up by surnames. Nancy Sween In a message dated 4/24/2005 9:06:11 PM Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: This is not OHGenWeb business per se, but the news has the potential to affect genealogy in counties contiguous with Preble Co. On April 15 Susan Kendall and her husband Pat were in a motorcycle accident. Susan died from her massive head injuries April 22. Pat is still listed in serious condition, but is expected to survive. Susan Kendall was the county librarian for Preble Co. She was special in that she was an amateur genealogist herself, past president & charter member of the Darke Co. Genealogical Society, the lead person for an ill-fated USGenWeb site for Preble Co., administrator of the Preble Co. Discussion list at Rootsweb since 1996, and the chief architect of the Preble County Room of the local library where genelogical materials are stored, maintained, and served to the public. She was known to many as the greatest friend of genealogy in the area in a position to really make a difference for researchers and keeping documents available for researchers. Her crowning achievement was the establishment of a web site accessed by search engine of images taken from the official microfilms of court documents. The first phase has been devoted to the marriage records of the county so anyone can search those records (I haven't heard the latest date recently but I believe they go from 1808-1900+) and find an image of the actual marriage record on-line. Entry to that site is at http://66.213.53.5/marriage/search.cfm and there is a little introduction to the Project at the bottom of that page. A little memorial with photo has been posted at http://php.ucs.indiana.edu/~jetorres/dco.html An obituary has been posted at http://ohpreble.ohgenweb.net/index.htm#obit Her efforts for genealogy in west central Ohio will be very much missed. ==== OHGEN Mailing List ==== OHGenWeb Project http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohgenweb

Surnames: LOVE, SCARLETT, FROWE, POPPER, NIBLOCK, MELMER From Memoirs of the Miami Valley, Vol. III, 1919: on page 449/450: Samuel W. LOVE. Superintendent of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company, at Hamilton, and who has been the incumbent of this post during the past ten years, was born at Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1866, a son of David and Mary (SCARLETT) LOVE, and a nephew of Lieutenant LOVE, chief of detectives of Cincinnati. His parents, natives of Ireland, were young married people when they emigrated to the United States and settled at Cincinnati, where David LOVE found employment as a city fireman. He met his death in the line of duty, being one of those to lose their lives while fighting the great bucket factory fire of some years ago, which is well remembered for its size, fierceness and number of casualties. He and his wife had two children: Samuel W. and Mary. The latter is the wife of George FROWE, of Cincinnati, where the aged mother also makes her home. Samuel W. LOVE received his education in the public schools of Cincinnati, but his advantages were not numerous, as the death o! f the father left the family in somewhat straitened financial circumstances and it was necessary that he go to work. He accordingly found a position with the Herman Manufacturing company, a concern with which he remained for thirteen years. During this time he was promoted from time to time, but finally felt that he was not making rapid enough progress and accordingly resigned and turned his attention to the field of life insurance. Securing a position as agent for the Metropolitan Life Insurance company, within the space of one short year he had won his way to the assistant superintendency at Cincinnati, and after capably discharging the duties of this office for some time was given the Hamilton agency as superintendent, this having been his post for the past ten years. The Hamilton agency also includes College Hill and Franklin, and Mr. Love now has fourteen solicitors under his charge. He has been very successful in his field and under his direction the company's bu! siness has assumed large proportions here. In 1904 Mr. LOVE married E lizabeth, daughter of Louis POPPER, a retired citizen of Cincinnati, and to this union there have been born two children: David, deceased; and Jean, born in November, 1910. Fraternally, Mr. LOVE is identified with the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, the Knights of Pythias and the Masons, and is a Shriner. He belongs to Trinity Episcopal church of Hamilton. During the campaign of selling Liberty Bonds and War Savings stamps, his allotment of bonds was $5,000 for each man in his district, which he exceeded, while he personally sold $114,000 worth of war savings stamps. He has always been active in movements which have contributed to the welfare of his community, and has thus been rightfully accredited with being a public-spirited and useful citizen. on page 546: in bio on James C. NIBLOCK, it mentions "he married Emma C. LOVE, daughter of William and Elizabeth (MELMER) LOVE, at Muncie, Ind., February 10, 1891. She was born in Glasgow, Scotland, January 16, 1870, and came with her parents to Montreal, Canada, when quite a young girl, where her father engaged in railroad business. Her mother died September 10, 1902; her father, July 31, 1911."

Hello; I am looking for Hannah DOUGLAS who married Jonathan WILLS. She may have been from Co.Butler and therefore this is where they might have been married. They had a daughter, but she died when born and then a son was born, Charles WILLS born 1, December 1829 in Middletown, Co.Clinton. Would SKS please do a lookup for the marriage or her birth and any other data you might care to help me with. I appreciate this so very much.
