    1. Re: Sandusky Start Journal & Boden's
    2. Hello all, I am new to your list, just found my GGF died at the State Soldiers Home and Hospital. This dirty old man was maried 4 times that I have found so far and had, according to him, 12 daughters and 6 sons. Only problem with that was that he forgot to divorce his wife before he married again, he just walked away and remarried. Lewis M Boden married Mary Mitchell in Wellsburg, WV 1868 before 1870 he married Harriet S Gover in Ohio and was living in Belmont Co in 1870, 1886 he married my GGM Ellen Pascoe in Carnegie PA, she was born in Ohio, in 1908 he married Ella Townsend in Ohio. I don't know when Mary Mitchell died but Harriet Gover died in 1925 in East Liverpool and Ellen Pascoe 1943 in Carnegie, PA. But Lewis reported tehm dieing much sooner in his Civil War Pension Records. Lewis died 09-02-1916 in the Soldiers home on Sandusky. What I would like to know is where can I get a copy of newspaper articles from the Sandusky Star Journal that I found through Ancestry.com, their link is not working and they have no idea when it will be up and running again. Newspaper dates I would like are 04-10-1916, 06-26-1916, 09-04-1916, 09-13-1916, 09-02-1916. Oh yea Mr Lewis Boden enlisted in the Civil War under Lewis Boden but later changed his name to Willgus and listed all his wives under Boden, only found him because when he wanted his pension he had to have the GAR make a name change for him in the records. Thank you for the help, I would like to write for copies of these articles ASAP. Terry Hutchison Cook
