I guess this what I get for doing things late at night. The correct phone number for The Gallia County Historical and Genealogical Society is 740-446-7200. I made a miss slip of the fingers and hit 7299 instead of 7200. I'm sorry Robin Fife --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As an Oregon resident, I find this fascinating. I think you're correct in believing Abraham and Barbara were not married on the Oregon Trail. The route wasn't scouted until the 1820's, and until the 1830's it was used primarily by trappers and explorers. Unless your Abraham was a trapper or explorer? Regards, Rachel Portland, OR

Amanda Osterloh left a posting on my McCarley blog and I cannot get in touch with her.? Does anyone know her? Thanks, karen

Bingo - bet that's him. This is a direct line for one of my cousins, and the family lore has been that he committed suicide. Now that's interesting that the date is 1874 meaning he's alive in 1870 but I can't find him. Oh yes - I used wife's name, children's names, given names only, surname (with variant spellings) only - and nada! And interestingly, a couple of the children had different names so I thought for sure I'd get a hit with one of them, but no success as yet. Was that the extent of the newspaper blurb? Really appreciate your help. Regards, Nancy On Apr 11, 2008, at 7:14 AM, fkb wrote: > Nancy, > > Does this sound like it could be your John Harvey?

Nancy, Does this sound like it could be your John Harvey? If so, it shows that he was living in Mason County in 1874. Maybe they moved in 1870 before census was taken in Gallia County yet after they had been taken in Mason County. Sometimes you can find them by using the children's names because as we know our ancestors loved to use first names one time and middle names or initials the next time round.

I've been trying to find John and Nancy (Ray/Rea) Harvey in 1870. They were living in Gallia Co on the 1860 Census, and I find Nancy and some of the children in Mason Co, WV on the 1880 Census. I can't find them at all as yet in 1870. In 1867 there is a marriage in Gallia Co between a Josephine Harvey and John Howarth, and the couple of interest did have a daughter named Josephine. I don't know if the Josephine who married John Howarth is their daughter, but if she is, then it seems likely that this family is still in Gallia Co in 1867. Does anyone know this family or have suggestions for other resources to search to find them in 1870? I've been all over Ancestry and Heritage Quest without success. I don't know if there might be some local sources of which I'm unaware. Thanks so much. Nancy Edwards nsedwards@bellsouth.net - Georgia -

Debbie, Thanks for pointing out my mistake. There is something below Matilda's inscription that said "Milley d May 7, 1853 Here sleeps the mother of four sweet babes at her feet." It could be that Milley's date should read May 7, 1883 and that Milley was Matilda's nickname.
