The Columbus library says you have to have a card and live in Ohio or else use your local public library and try an interlibrary loan. I know the four exact publication dates of the ones I need. Would ANYONE in Columbus be willing to obtain the following four for me and either email them or mail them to me. I will send whatever money you need up front if you will do this for me. I need the following: John M.

Tina, I had thoughts in that directions, too. It may not locate whole families, but it helps with heads of household and in some cases you can see that the land is owned by heirs . . . So it helps determine an approximate time of death; much closer that the 20 years between 1880 and 1900.

I am looking for a town (probably more like a crossroads) that existed in 1903 in Ohio. The town was Jeremiah Holler or Hollow. Does anyone know of site where I can search for this or does anyone recognize it? I am actually looking for Florence Speelman born in 1903 in Jeremiah Holler. It might be from Franklin County to Vinton County. Thank you, Linda

Thank you Leona!!! Karen GenealogyBug <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, Everyone! A few years ago a friend of my husband's who worked in the county engineer's office, knowing my interest in Franklin County history and genealogy, handed Dave (hubby) a bundle of eighteen sheets of paper. Each sheet was about 30 inches square. Each was a circa 1895 plat map of one of the eighteen townships in Franklin County. With the exception of city/town lots, each parcel has the name of the owner and the acreage printed inside the parcel. I wanted to find a way to share this bounty with others, but I don't have the patience required for some projects. So I put it on my "Honey dew" list for Dave's retirement. During the past week he scanned each map in segments and then "stitched" them together. The results are, in my slightly biased opinion, fantastic. He put them in PDF files so that they can be magnified to read the names better. Some of the maps are more easily read than others--remember they are copies of copies of copies. One last comment--they are very large files and for those with dial-up modems they will take a long time to download. Please be patient.

My driveway is in Hamilton Twp and my house, next to my driveway, is in the Columbus School district which must be the Marion district. Thanks, Joyce P.S.

Sally, you ask: > 1. Is Franklin County larger than Columbus? Franklin County IS larger than Columbus, though as I understand it, the city actually overflows into Delaware County to the north and into Fairfield and Licking counties to the east. We live in Brown Twp. and no part of Columbus has reached this township yet--no town ever has. (Though some might say that Mudsock once was partially in Brown Twp.) > 2. Is Columbus made up of different Townships? Columbus has no townships within its corporate limits. That's what I meant when I said that Montgomery and then Marion townships were absorbed by Columbus. Every time Columbus annexes more land there is less left in some township. Clinton and Franklin townships are nearly completely gone, swallowed up by Columbus. > 3. What Township is the German Village in? I know the least about this, but I'll give it a try. German Village (a Columbus neighborhood) was and is an area just south of downtown Columbus that was settled during the mid-nineteenth century by German immigrants. They lived in this area and this was also the area where they built their breweries and bakeries, as well as other businesses. During WW I anti-German sentiment caused many of them to leave and prohibition caused most, if not all, of the breweries to close. German Village was in decline to say the least, but in the 1960s concerned citizens managed to have it's historic significance recognized and the area has been restored and preserved.
