Shelley, I was going to write to you and suggest that you post the message about the Minnick photo on the Lorain County list. There were plenty of Minnichs in Avon. But now you've really got me curious about this latest photo of Emma Smith. I would guess that she and sister Kate are actually Schmitzes, especially since they were from Germany, according to the census records you posted. I'm descended from Nicholas Schmitz and Maria Katherine Minnich. They were married in Prussia in 1840. I'm not sure whether or not I've discovered all their children. They did have a daughter named Emma but she was born in 1847. She married Peter Busch and they did live in Cleveland. All that being said, I'd be interested in the photo. I'd also be interested in making contact with anyone else who writes to you about it.

I've "rescued" an old photograph identified as Emma SMITH which was taken at the E. B. Nock Studio in Cleveland, Ohio. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1870's with Emma likely in her teens at the time it was taken. In addition to her name, someone has also written "sister of Katie MINNICK" on the back of the photograph. This photograph was recovered with others belonging to the MINNICK, BENSON, HOFFMAN, and BEARDSLEY Families. I am hoping to locate someone from Emma's family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to the care of her family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

I've "rescued" an old photograph identified simply as Henry MINNICK'S granddaughter. The photograph was taken at the Hill Studio in Cleveland, Ohio, likely sometime in the early 1900's with the child in the photograph about 1 year old at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the family: Henry D. MINNICK married Katie SMITH on 22 Dec 1874 in Cuyahoga Co., OH Census records provide the following: 1880 census of Massillon, OH: H. D. MINNICK, age 23, a Railroad Fireman, born PA, parents born PA Katie MINNICK, wife, age 22, Keeps House, born OH, parents born Germany Harry MINNICK, son, age 5, born OH Addie MINNICK, dau, age 3, born OH Blanderey MINNICK, dau, age 2, born OH 1900 census of Canton, OH: Henry D. MINNICK, age 47, born Feb 1853, married 26 years, born PA, parents born PA, an Engine Inspector Catherine MINNICK, wife, age 42, born Jul 1857, married 26 years, 8 children/8 living, born OH, parents born Germany Adalaide MINNICK, dau, age 22, born Dec 1877, born OH, a Stenographer Gertrude MINNICK, dau, age 19, born Apr 1881, born OH, Works in Rail Shop Eva MINNICK, dau, age 16, born Mar 1884, born OH, a Servant Florence MINNICK, dau, age 13, born Oct 1886, born OH, at School Lewis MINNICK, son, age 1, born Dec 1898, born OH Rhea MINNICK, dau, age 4 months, born Jan 1900, born OH Albert MAYFORTH, son-in-law, age 29, born Mar 1871, newly married, born MA, parents born Germany, a Factory Finisher Blandena MAYFORTH, dau, age 21, born Feb 1879, newly married, no children, born OH, parents born PA/OH 1910 census of Canton, OH: Henry D. MINNICK, age 54, married 36 years, born PA, parents born PA, a Steam Railroad Engineer Catherine MINNICK, wife, age 54, married 36 years, 8 children/8 living, born OH, parents born Germany Adelaide MINNICK, dau, age 33, born OH, a Dental Supply Factory Stenographer Eva MINNICK, dau, age 26, born OH, a Retail Store Tailoress Florence MINNICK, dau, age 23, born OH, a Telephone Co. Operator Louis MINNICK, son, age 11, born OH Rhea MINNICK, dau, age 10, born OH 1920 census of Canton, OH: Henry D. MINNICK, age 64, born PA, parents born PA, a Railroad Engineer Kathryn MINNICK, wife, age 63, born OH, parents born Germany Adelaide C. MINNICK, dau, age 42, born OH, a Dental Office Bookkeeper Lewis D. MINNICK, son, age 31, born OH, a Steel Mill Catcher Rhea Kathryn MINNICK, dau, age 30, born OH, a Hospital Nurse Other photographs recovered from the same source also appear to be connected to the MINNICK Family and include the surnames SMITH, BENSON, HOFFMAN, and BEARDSLEY. I am hoping to locate someone from the MINNICK Family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to its rightful place with the family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

I would like to thank every one who has sent all the Finnerty information, Grama always said he died in that explosion, but it appears he did not. Wonder if Thomas was his father?? I've got to do some hunting today or after Fay passes over me. Weather has been pretty nasty here. I have another question has any one heard of the Casper Family in the Cleveland area. this is another line we have been totally kept in the dark about. I have them in then census, and John H. Casper 2ND marriage, as he was 1st married to Nina Perkins the lady listed in John L. Finnerty obit. The Casper family was in the Cleveland Area from about 1870 right up to 1920. James Casper m Ruth Nichols in 1928 they have 3 children who would like to find another Casper relative Thank you Again Christy Hodges Smith

The following may be of some help... it doesn't cover all the dates but does take it back beyond 1908. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ohcuyah2/deaths/coarch/part1/index.html To get the particulars, the books are held at the Cuyahoga County Archives. Happy hunting ~ Sharon in F.P.
