He is listed as David Baughman and she is listed as Cassie Summers, Vol 8 Page 124, 3 May 1887. The only birth record I could locate is: Vol 1 Page 16 No 339, Infant daughter of Morton Summers born 24 Aug 1868 in Florence Township, Erie County OH. Father: Morton Summers Mother: Not listed Reported by: Dr W T Parker. You said her DOB as 1863 but this one for 1868 was the only one I could locate. This just may be the one for Catherine (Cassie). Let me know if you would like anything further. jb

The Probate Court records for births and deaths are from 1867 until 20 Dec 1908. Let me know if there is anything further you would like me to research for you. jb

I have figured out Albert Wobser's ancestery pretty much. I'm still searching for Charles's father, do you have anything on August Wobser Sr.? I found a Lewis Wobser who has Charles listed as his brother and a sister named Mrs. Gustav Yantz ,she resides in Mi. Lewis or Louis's obituary does not list a mother or father but I believe he is Charles brother. Most of the newspaper clippings list the survivors to Albert. Lewis was born in 1850, marriedAugusta, born 1847. Charles was born in 1847, married Amelia Wendt. All lived in the Venice and Castalia area. Thanks Lois

The name is usually spelled Heagney in Ireland and is found mostly in County Tyrone. But even in Ireland, it is not a very common name.

I can ask my sister to photograph them with her digital camera, but I don't know when she can get around to it. My great grandmother was Mrs Ida Katherine (Wagner) Seaman, daughter of Reuben C. Wagner -- a Stark County boy who ran away from home at 17 and got all the way down to Washington, DC in 1863, during Lee's Pennsylvania campaign. He was a corporal in Co. B, 2nd DC Volunteer Infantry, serving mainly in the DC area -- making sure that John Mosby didn't gobble up everything in sight. I know that gg grandpa was adjutant of Asa R. Hillyer Post, GAR. His widow was in the WRC and we have a lot of ribbons from reuinions and such they attended a century ago. (They are all framed and hanging over the mantel in my bedroom.) Great grandma belonged in Sandusky, so it was whatever tent was there. It may be written down on something, but it's all at home. The medals are reddish bronze, about the size of a quarter if I remember right, but much thicker. I'm trying to remember the color of the ribbons, but not having much luck. Great grandma lived in Monroeville, Huron County in the 1890s, so she may have joined the DUV there. She was a school teacher before she married. She moved into Sandusky when her English-born husband opened a business there in the early 1900s. She died when I was very small, but I treasure a Christmas card with a special message to me when I was about two and her first great grandchild. I've even still got the big old fashion two dollar bill in it. Her mother was Irish, and my mother has often accused me of inheriting her cutting Irish tongue. (When I did my practice teaching as a university student, the supervising teacher told me not to be so sarcastic with the kids. I didn't even realize I had been!) My home in the States is a long way from Toledo -- and a lot "futhuh daown south"! I belonged to the SCV for some time and a friend has urged me to join the SUVCW too, but I found both male groups to be too heavy on refighting old wars and reopening old wounds. (I'm a VN vet and had enough fighting to last me!) But the women's organizations seem more sensible than the men's -- no big surprise. :-))) Good luck with your efforts. Charles
