    3. My father's family spent most of the 1800's in Fairfield & Hocking county, and I am trying to get more of a feel of the area at that time, as well as information about my relatives. In particular: Sarah Ann (SHAW) Sheets taught at "School #6" - probably in either Berne Tp of Fairfield Co or Marion Tp of Hocking Co - about 1860-1865. (I believe her students included BREHM, BRICKER, BROWN, BUTTERWORTH, FEWELL, FEWELL, FOX, HAMILTON, HEFT, HEIDLEBAUGH, IMBODEN, JOHNSON, MASTON, MYERS, and ZWICKLE children). Does anyone know exactly where that school was? Is there a photo of that school in any of the local histories, or elsewhere? Or a list of the teachers? Also: Sarah had several GARRISON grandchildren: Cyril and Ward, and possibly Ola (Garrison?) RITTGERS. I know of only two SHEETS children, Harriet and Erwin. Perhaps Harriet "Hattie" Sheets married a Mr. Garrison, probably about 1890 before she married Joseph ANSEL (their children: Ora and Murl). If not, there must be another daughter I don't know about. Can anyone with information about the ANSEL, GARRISON, RITTGERS, or SHEETS families help me out? Bert Shaw, Portland OR
