Hello Everyone: My ancestor, Charles A. Weingates, was Chief of Police in Sandusky from 1903-1937. I have no picture of him, and some time ago I contacted the police department in Sandusky and was told that there is a picture of him in the department files. I spoke to the secretary of the current police chief (I believe) who said I was welcome to come to the department and make a copy of the picture. For some reason, she couldn't mail me a copy. I live in New Jersey, so I'm hoping there might be someone on the list who would be able to mail me a copy of the picture. I'll be more than glad to pay for time, photocopy/mail costs, etc. If someone would be willing to do this, would you please contact me privately? Thank you very much. Paul C. Miller

The names kind of follow the Sandusky River as it winds toward the Sandusky Bay of Lake Erie.

Many get confused, but the city of Sandusky is in Erie County. Perhaps the 1880 Census was for Lower Sandusky, which is a previous name for Fremont, Sandusky County Ohio. I hope this helps you.

This Indiana "Frank" looks like a possible father to my ggrandfather, who lists his father as being born in Ohio. As such, I found a listing for "F. M. Atherton living with the Curtis Benschoter family on the 1860 census for Berlin township, Erie county, Ohio. I have not found any other listings or references to an Atherton/Benschoter connection, until seeing your posting! For me, this is a bit of a dart throw, but something to pursue! Note: The marriage of Frank Atherton and Martha E. Trowbridge ended in divorce, per Indiana genweb records. Their son, "George" remained in custody of his mother. I show a listing of "Elizebeth" Atherton and "Guy" Atherton on the 1880 census for Reading, Hillsdale, Michigan. My great grandfather always was listed as Guy Atherton, except for one census listing which shows "Geo." Lots of questions remain, however, Martha Elizabeth Trowbridge's mother, per another forum I found recently, was born Lydia DeForrest. She married DeWitt Hicks and had some children before marrying David Trowbridge, who also had been previously married and had children from that marriage. An interesting connection, considering my research is less than solid on this whole connection, is that my ggrandpa "Guy" Atherton named one of his sons Clive Deforest Atherton. This turns on a lightbulb for me! If you have learned more about Milton Atherton, please pass it along, as I still consider this to be a lead to my possible "Frank Atherton" ancestor.
