Recently I went obit hunting. I am working on Swisher, Coughenour, Moore, Fee, etc I worked about 3 hours on one reel of m icrofilm, and found lots of info, but not on my family. I came acrossed an article on the history of the Copeland family . It is a good genealogical run down on the family printed in the February 3, 1906 Daily Tribune. If you would like this article (it took 2 scans to get it all) Then please email me at [email protected] I will be more than happy to send it to you. I might transcribe it and enter it in for the record.... if I can find the time.

Sue, What an odd coincidence. I joined your mailing list probably a month ago, then decided as I had nothing to offer y'all I would remove myself from the list. On a whim I opened your note about finding counties in Ohio tonight. I was sure Gallia County would be there, but Cheshire Twp? There is was! Thank you so much. I have been searching for information about my grandfather for almost eight years. Two years ago I found him on a census when he was four years old and in an orphanage in Gallia County. I knew he had "grown up" in an orphanage after the death of his father, but had no idea where he was. He was actually in the orphanage for about two years until his mother remarried. His name was Elmer Ellsworth Van Kirk, born of Sarah Jones and William Van Kirk in 1878 in Gallia Co. He was actually in the orphanage for about two years until his mother remarried. One of his daughters-in -law found a copy of his request for birth certification. He died in CA in 1946. We also knew he had a son when he married my grandmother in 1917. (Man of few words!) When I started looking for this son, at four years old in 1908 he was in the same orphanage where his father had been! I have found Hartley Lee Van Kirk in some census reports, his registration for military service in 1942 in Hawaii, but nothing of where he was born or who his mother may have been. Now I have a picture of where they were and hopefully a way to locate information about Hartley's mother and the family he indicated he had on the WWII draft registration.

----- Original Message ----- Subject: Fw: Veterans and military in civilian clothes may now salute the flag ----- Original Message ----- Veterans and military in civilian clothes may now salute the flag..... WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe (R-Okla..) today praised the passage by unanimous consent of his bill (S.1877) clarifying U.S. law to allow veterans and servicemen not in uniform to salute the flag. Current law (US Code Title 4, Chapter 1) states that veterans and servicemen not in uniform should place their hand over their heart without clarifying whether they can or should salute the flag. "The salute is a form of honor and respect, representing pride in one's military service," Senator Inhofe said. "Veterans and service members continue representing the military services even when not in uniform. "Unfortunately, current U.S. law leaves confusion as to whether veterans and service members out of uniform can or should salute the flag. My legislation will clarify this regulation, allowing veterans and servicemen alike to salute the flag, whether they are in uniform or not. "I look forward to seeing those who have served saluting proudly at baseball games, parades, and formal events. I believe this is an appropriate way to honor and recognize the 25 million veterans in the United States who have served in the military and remain as role models to others citizens. Those who are currently serving or have served in the military have earned this right, and their recognition will be an inspiration to others." This Bill was passed July 25, 2007. Let your veteran friends know about the Passage of this Bill.

Local News Preserving the past: Genealogical Society provides links to heritage By Joy Kocmoud Thursday, August 30, 2007 5:28 PM EDT Joy Kocmoud/photo - The community joined members of the Gallia County Genealogical Society, OGS Chapter, for a special ribbon cutting ceremony Wednesday. From left are Ann Brown, GCGS treasurer; Lorie Neal, executive director of the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce; Nancy Buck, Oak Hill Bank representative; Becky Carroll, Bossard Memoral Library representative; Mary James, GCGS member and volunteer, Bette Horan, GCGS member; Marian Schoonover, GCGS board member; Marianne Campbell of the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce; Pat Compton, GCGS board member; Lynne Crow, director of the Community Improvement Corporation; Henny Evans, GCGS president; State Sen. John Carey; Bob Hood, director of the Gallia County Convention and Visitor's Bureau; Sharon Smith of the Gallipolis Retail Merchants Association; Don Clark, Ohio Genealogical Society district representative; Gallia County Commissioner David Smith; Dorothy Frazier, GCGS secretary; and Bob Roach and Raymond DeLille, both of the Knights of Pythias. GALLIPOLIS - History buffs and community members were on hand to celebrate the grand opening and ribbon cutting at the Gallia County Genealogical Society, OGS Chapter, on Wednesday. Although the society officially moved into the office, located at 57 Court St., next door to the Gallia County Convention and Visitor's Bureau, in February 2007, organizers wanted to get everything situated before inviting the public to peruse over 12,000 probate records, over 500 family histories, and over 800 lineage society files kept on site. “We want everybody to see what we have and what we do here,” said Henny Evans, president. “We're here to help anyone who has Gallia County roots to document, research, and discover their heritage.” “It's addicting,” said Ann Brown, treasurer. “Once you get started, it's like putting a puzzle together. Each fact leads to something else. With a city as old as we are, being established in 1790, it's exciting to see how far back you can go. It's fascinating when you start hunting for your ancestors, you never know where it will end up.” Thanks to a dedicated group of volunteers, the society is able to constantly update its resource materials both in person and on the Internet, including about 30 publications with information such as marriage, birth and death records, census and will abstracts, and funeral records. “Haven't you ever wondered about your ancestors?” asked volunteer Barbara Richards. “The interesting thing is that it's fun to look back at them and find out about what they did, where they lived and who their neighbors were. It's just amazing when little bits of information keep popping up, leading to something else.” “Our goal is to help every researcher with their Gallia County genealogy and to preserve all genealogical records that pertain to the county,” said Evans. “This may take the form of copying records, such as tombstones or abstracting marriages or wills, for the public to use. We also collect and preserve old documents.” Researchers can use the society as a tool to prove their family history in order to be inducted into any of the three lineage societies, First Families of Gallia County, Civil War Families of Gallia County, and Settlers and Builders of Gallia County. "Genealogy is one of the most popular hobbies in the country," said Evans.Everybody seems to enjoy finding out about their families, and they're amazed at the things they can learn by spending a few hours pulling documents. I'm thrilled. Today has been a success." For more information, call 446-4242 or visit www.galliagenealogy.org. _____________________________________________________________________

Thanks Karen Karen <[email protected]> wrote: PAST AND PRESENT OF THE CITY OF SPRINGFIELD AND SANGAMON COUNTY ILLINOIS By Joseph Wallace, M. A. of the Springfield Bar The S. J. Clarke Publishing Co., Chicago, IL 1904 Transcribed by Mary Ann Kaylor Page 511 History of Sangamon County, Illinois 1904 Perry Lewis has since 1879 made his home in Sangamon county, where he owns and cultivates a farm of one hundred and twenty acres in Pawnee township. He was born in Gallia county, Ohio, March 15, 1840, a son of Samuel Lewis, whose birth occurred in New Jersey in 1810. The grandfather, Aaron Lewis, likewise born in New Jersey, became one of the early settlers of Gallia county, Ohio, where his son Samuel was reared. The latter followed the river in early life and subsequently engaged in farming. He was married in Ohio to Electa Wilcox, a native of that state and a daughter of Alfred Wilcox, who removed from Massachusetts and took up his abode upon the frontier in the Buckeye state. Mr. Lewis, following his marriage, became a resident farmer of Gallia county and later sold that property and removed to Jackson county, where he also owned a farm. About 1888 he came to Illinois, settling in Crawford county, where he died a few years later. He lost his first wife about 1867 and is now survived by is second wife, who returned to Ohio and is living in Jackson county. Perry Lewis is a member of a family of three sons and seven daughters who grew to mature years and the sons and four of the daughters are yet living. His boyhood days were spent in the state of his nativity and farm work early became familiar to him through actual experience in the fields. He was educated in the common schools and continued at home until 1862, when his patriotic spirit being aroused by the attempt of the south to overthrow the Union, he enlisted in the Twenty-Seventh Ohio Infantry with his brother William. Perry and William Lewis served throughout the war together, participating in the battles of Parker's Crossroads, Dallas, Dalton, Peach Tree Creek, Kenesaw Mountain, Marietta, the Atlanta campaign, the march to the sea under General Sherman and the last fight at Jonesboro. Then they marched through Richmond and on to Washington, participating in the grand review in that city, after which they were sent to Louisville. Later they were transported to Cincinnati, where they were paid off and honorably discharged in July, 1865. Perry Lewis lost no time through illness or in any other cause, but was always found at his post of duty, faithfully defending the old flag and the cause it represented. When the war was over, Lewis returned home and began farming on his own account, purchasing one hundred and twenty acres of land in Jackson county, Ohio. There he carried on general agricultural pursuits for fourteen years and also engaged in freighting, but in 1879 he sold his property in Ohio and came to Illinois. Here he at first operated rented land for four years and then purchased the farm upon which he resided for fourteen years. He erected a good house and barn and other necessary outbuildings for the shelter of grain and stock, tiled and fenced his place and carried on the work of improvement until he had very good property. In 1893 he removed to Pawnee and purchased a lot on which he erected a neat residence, in which he is now living, but he still supervises his farming interests. He and his son built other residence property in Pawnee, but later sold out to good advantage. In July, 1865, in Gallia county, Ohio, Perry Lewis was married to Anna Eliza Dickerson, who was born and reared in Gallia county, daughter of Reuben and Lydia (Ewing) Dickerson. Her father was a member of the Sixtieth Ohio Volunteer Infantry in the Civil war and was taken prison at Harper's Ferry. There are four living children by this marriage: Adelbert E., of Idaho, is married and has three children, Elton, Laurel and Glenn; Elma is the wife of Frank Brock of Springfield, and has two children, Elsie and Frank Lewis Brock; Charles E., who resides on the home farm, is married and has a daughter, Cleo; Zora is the wife of W. R. Abshire. They also lost two children, Lycurgus and a son that died in infancy. Mr. Lewis proudly cast his first presidential vote for Abraham Lincoln in 1864, while at Marietta, Georgia, and has never failed to support the standard bearer of the party at each presidential election since that time. His wife is a member of the Presbyterian church and he belongs to Pawnee Post, No. 421, G.A.R., in which he has filled all of the offices, being now a past commander and also quartermaster of his post. He has proved himself a successful farmer and a man of good business judgment and strict integrity. He fought valiantly for the old flag and is today as loyal in citizenship as he was when he marched o'er the battle fields of the south.

PAST AND PRESENT OF THE CITY OF SPRINGFIELD AND SANGAMON COUNTY ILLINOIS By Joseph Wallace, M. A. of the Springfield Bar The S. J. Clarke Publishing Co., Chicago, IL 1904 Transcribed by Mary Ann Kaylor Page 511 History of Sangamon County, Illinois 1904 Perry Lewis has since 1879 made his home in Sangamon county, where he owns and cultivates a farm of one hundred and twenty acres in Pawnee township. He was born in Gallia county, Ohio, March 15, 1840, a son of Samuel Lewis, whose birth occurred in New Jersey in 1810. The grandfather, Aaron Lewis, likewise born in New Jersey, became one of the early settlers of Gallia county, Ohio, where his son Samuel was reared. The latter followed the river in early life and subsequently engaged in farming. He was married in Ohio to Electa Wilcox, a native of that state and a daughter of Alfred Wilcox, who removed from Massachusetts and took up his abode upon the frontier in the Buckeye state. Mr. Lewis, following his marriage, became a resident farmer of Gallia county and later sold that property and removed to Jackson county, where he also owned a farm. About 1888 he came to Illinois, settling in Crawford county, where he died a few years later. He lost his first wife about 1867 and is now survived by is second wife, who returned to Ohio and is living in Jackson county. Perry Lewis is a member of a family of three sons and seven daughters who grew to mature years and the sons and four of the daughters are yet living. His boyhood days were spent in the state of his nativity and farm work early became familiar to him through actual experience in the fields. He was educated in the common schools and continued at home until 1862, when his patriotic spirit being aroused by the attempt of the south to overthrow the Union, he enlisted in the Twenty-Seventh Ohio Infantry with his brother William. Perry and William Lewis served throughout the war together, participating in the battles of Parker's Crossroads, Dallas, Dalton, Peach Tree Creek, Kenesaw Mountain, Marietta, the Atlanta campaign, the march to the sea under General Sherman and the last fight at Jonesboro. Then they marched through Richmond and on to Washington, participating in the grand review in that city, after which they were sent to Louisville. Later they were transported to Cincinnati, where they were paid off and honorably discharged in July, 1865. Perry Lewis lost no time through illness or in any other cause, but was always found at his post of duty, faithfully defending the old flag and the cause it represented. When the war was over, Lewis returned home and began farming on his own account, purchasing one hundred and twenty acres of land in Jackson county, Ohio. There he carried on general agricultural pursuits for fourteen years and also engaged in freighting, but in 1879 he sold his property in Ohio and came to Illinois. Here he at first operated rented land for four years and then purchased the farm upon which he resided for fourteen years. He erected a good house and barn and other necessary outbuildings for the shelter of grain and stock, tiled and fenced his place and carried on the work of improvement until he had very good property. In 1893 he removed to Pawnee and purchased a lot on which he erected a neat residence, in which he is now living, but he still supervises his farming interests. He and his son built other residence property in Pawnee, but later sold out to good advantage. In July, 1865, in Gallia county, Ohio, Perry Lewis was married to Anna Eliza Dickerson, who was born and reared in Gallia county, daughter of Reuben and Lydia (Ewing) Dickerson. Her father was a member of the Sixtieth Ohio Volunteer Infantry in the Civil war and was taken prison at Harper's Ferry. There are four living children by this marriage: Adelbert E., of Idaho, is married and has three children, Elton, Laurel and Glenn; Elma is the wife of Frank Brock of Springfield, and has two children, Elsie and Frank Lewis Brock; Charles E., who resides on the home farm, is married and has a daughter, Cleo; Zora is the wife of W. R. Abshire. They also lost two children, Lycurgus and a son that died in infancy. Mr. Lewis proudly cast his first presidential vote for Abraham Lincoln in 1864, while at Marietta, Georgia, and has never failed to support the standard bearer of the party at each presidential election since that time. His wife is a member of the Presbyterian church and he belongs to Pawnee Post, No. 421, G.A.R., in which he has filled all of the offices, being now a past commander and also quartermaster of his post. He has proved himself a successful farmer and a man of good business judgment and strict integrity. He fought valiantly for the old flag and is today as loyal in citizenship as he was when he marched o'er the battle fields of the south.

Thank you Gerald for that info. Now, do you have any idea who Josephs children were? I am searching for an Aaron Lewis born 1830 and went to Missouri with his family. Samuel had an Aaron but he did not live long enough to marry and have children. Am supposing Joseph named a child Aaron too. "Hanna Briental Lewis" was Hanna's maiden name. She was also a Lewis. She was a distant coisin of her husband, Aaron Lewis. I have that data if you want it. Its been posted to a Gallia Co website but I don't remember where now. I sent it several years ago. Again, thank you so much for that quick response.
