Linda, You got that right!!!!! How wonderful our families are and to be in a small town too. My family were farmers also. Worked hard to make a living and my sister and I worked on the farm too.

Pcomptone@wmconnect.com wrote We both are members of the Gallia County Genealogical Society, Chapter of OGS, Incorporated, and also members of the First Families of Gallia County..Our society is the original chapter of OGS which was started in 1983 by Henny Evans.

Pat Baker Compton Didn't I read somewhere that your group, the Gallia County Genealogical Society, Chapter of OGS, INC didn't start until January of this year, 2005. How can you claim that you are what you are.?? This is false advertising. After reading all of these postings , you are a rebel group. You are not the original group that started in 1983. Henny Evans did not start the group in 1983, she might have been apart of the group that started in 1983. I get the idea that you are falsely calling yourself the Gallia County Genealogical Society because someone got mad and walked out. Stop all of this either become one group or quit. There can't be 2 First Family groups or Civil War groups. From what I have been reading you don't own the rights to First Family or Civil War. From what I have been reading you are nothing but a group of disgruntled women who couldn't have things their way and did the walk out bit.

I have a copies of the originals from the will book of Jacob Boyles about the selling of property for his estate in 1834 but there is no mention of children, etc. and his wife Sally was made administrator.

Hi Guys, I got a rather sad thing in the mail the other day. It came out of the AARP magazine, May/June 2005, p. 8 "The Mail" Somebody, I assume it was my sister, had circled a portion of one of the letters to the editor. The circled portion read... "I wish that instead of spending so much time studying deceased ancestors, my mom had spent more time creating memories with her living descendants." I swung by Mound Hill this afternoon on my way home from town, and stopped by my paternal grandparents grave. I drive over to their gravesite about once maybe twice a month and just sit there and reflect on life and other things. Today I caught myself being quite poetic and thinking how my ancestors aren't famous, there are no buildings named after them, no city parks, or anything like that. They were just good honest hard working Gallia county farmers. And I thought about how all that I am and all that I have to look forward to is because of them! By looking backward and seeing where we were, shows us how far we've come and how far we can yet progress! The genealogical bug bit my parents and myself some 34 years ago. My father and mother were proud of their ancestors and taught me about them, and stirred in me a love and a devotion to those who made me what I am today. My father served in the military, not because he chose to, but because it was the right thing to do (plus he had a draft notice waiting at home for him <g>). He taught me what it means to be an American, an Ohioan, and a Gallia Countian. (We didn't even live in Gallia County at that time, but he was born here, and he was darn proud of that fact). I remember spending countless hours at the courthouse and going through all the records as we frantically tried to prove our lineage to FF of GC, but alas we came up empty and my father passed away unable to fulfill that dream. I'm still carrying that torch! But those countless hours are something that I've treasured over the years. Something my parents made into a treat, something I looked forward to doing as often as we could. My father was an executive in a plastic pipe plant and was away from home quite a bit, but the memories that he and my mother have left with me are fond memories of learning about our country, family and learning as much about my ancestors through them as I could. Here's to the past, the present and the future! Without our history we are nobody. Sorry to ramble, and I'm sorry to take up space here, but I just had to vent to someone who would truly understand.

Conference...delete if you have no interest The opening session of the O.G.S. Conference always features a keynote speaker who sets the tone for the Conference. This year it was John T. Humphrey of D.C. He is very involved with Germanic research. He also authored the 14 volume set of Pennsylvania Births. He is currently working on WW II genealogical records of interest to German and U.S. researchers. His opening topic was "Developing the Skills to Become a Genealogist." The message that immediately caught my attention is that there are those who are "doing genealogy" and those who have become genealogists through the development of years of research. Recognizing assumptions, developing skepticism, understanding records, assembling data and recognizing a variety of records from which data can be obtained were a few of his points. He also discussed developing the skill to recognize the object of the search, the skill to assemble data and think analytically, personal skills and recognizing that the genealogist has to become hardened to criticism. One way to avoid criticism is to document all sources thoroughly and carefully and to keep text as error free as possible. He agreed that no matter how hard we try, every book will eventually render a mistake or more. Dogged determination and a positive attitude will help us find our answers. He also used an example of hunting for an ancestor for 30 years in which he found two possible wills. One was incorrect for several reasons and the other he eliminated because the ancestor had signed with an x and he had earlier documents where he signed his name. I remembered reading once that people sometimes used an x because if they were new to America, they felt safer not signing something they really did not understand. BUT in this case, after years, John rethought his position and realized that in the will the ancestor in the beginning paragraphs was listed as weak and feeble. It turned out he had the correct will all along and that the ancestor was too weak to sign his name.

Nice thoughts. When I started, a friend bemoaned the fact that I was doing this. His family has a long history in this town. My friend's son was able to know his great grandfather. That's right, 4 generations together. Research isn't as vital when you're able to actually meet and talk to history. I had to remind him that my family was structured differently. I knew my grandmothers but not my grandfathers, who were born in 1890 and 1875. When I was born they would've been 72 and 87. My friend didn't mean anything derogatory by his reaction - later he commented that he hadn't fully realized how valuable his situation was. He ended up having many more conversations with his elders and he recorded them. His son will be able to listen to those tapes and learn the family history *firsthand*. Sometimes we don't keep in mind another's perspective, even if it's a family member. Spending time with living relatives is valuable, but time spent with our predecessors is no less so.

I copied the section about Olive Fee and Lovais Glassburn.. It is a great book and alot of time was spent in doing it. I just know that I saw somewhere that one of their children married a Gooch. I will find it again. I know I wrote it down. CHeryl DesignStch@aol.com wrote:I have a lot of Glassburn information.

I agree with you so much. I am so very glad that I was able to be with my father in his last few weeks. He began to talk about everything just about November. At Thanksgiving, we all sat at his feet and listened to him, ask him questions about his life and his parents. Dad was always so busy with reporting the news that we like everyone else we had to read his columns to find out about his life and other things. But that last few months was so very precious to me, He talked so much and we all listened knowing that this would be last opportunity to hear him and interact. We laughed and cried and laughed some more. Now, we are unpacking boxes of memories and again laughing and crying over each little treasure. I learned more about Dad in 2 months than I did in my life time. Cheryl Linda Trent <lindatrent@zoomnet.net> wrote:Hi Guys, I got a rather sad thing in the mail the other day.

Yes , Marilyn, I did. I was looking on the FTM at the date of Alva Fred's death when I wrote it down. My mistake, sorry. I will get those wills scanned and sent to you in the next couple of days.

I want the wills if you can scan them for me that would be super. i have but one question. His grave says 1849-1914, but the obitrary says 1922. Did you make a mistake. Thanks though all this is very good. Marilyn Joanne and Marilyn, I have been working on my First Family file to submit and I wasn't paying attention. It wasn't till I read the post of Alva Fred, son of Alma and Fred, that it hit me. I dove into the family tree maker and found the information that you need.. Sorry to be so lax. but I am working on the applications for First Family and Civil War and Settlers and Builders I completely lost track of what is going on. I got so excited that I have 12 Settlers and Builders to put in the new lineage society and 2 more in the Civil War and 1 brand new proven ancestor for the First Families. Sidney Root is the father of Fred Ferdinand Root, who married my Aunt Alma Juirtta George in 1920. Alva Fred was named for Alma's twin brother Alva and Fred for his father. It was a very tragic death. The house caught on fire while Uncle Fred was away working on the Railroad. Aunt Alma was unable to get little Alva out of the burning home. Aunt Alma nearly lost her mind, she tried to drown herself in the river. They lived on the river bank on Rt#7 across from the Kanauga Switch house. Uncle Fred found her at the water's edge ready to walk into the cold river. Here is the info from my FTM. on Sidney Root. Sidney Root , died July 12,1922 Obit from Gallipolis Daily Tribune Sidney Root, a truck farmer, sixty years old, living , above George's Creek , was found dead in a hay mow this morning. He was a member of the Kanauga M.E. Church, and leaves a widow, boy and girl. He had been feeling poorly for several days, and was not a church on Sunday, an unusual thing for him as he was a devoted christian man. Doubtless heart disease carried him off, although we have no definite particulars. Gallipolis Journal July 15, 1922 Sidney Root, a well known truck gardener of Addison Township , was found dead in his hay mow, Monday. He was aged 60 and left a widow and 2 children. Mr.Root was know for many years as a grocery clerk in Gallipolis, being last at the Ford grocery. He was an inductrious worker , conscientious and religiously inclined. He is buried at Pine Street cemetery. Feb 8, 1932 Gallipolis Tribune. Mrs. Sidney Root Passes Funeral Wednesday. P.M. Mrs. Sidney Root died early Monday morning at her home in Kanauga at the age of sixty four. Her condition had been critical for several weeks. Funeral services will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock by Rev. E.C. Venz at the Kanauga church. Interment under the direction of George J. Wetherholt and Sons in Pine Street Cemetery. Mrs. Root is survived by a son Fred Root and a daughter Mrs. Nevin (Nora) Wood of Kanauga. If you want I can post Mary Finley Root's father's obit. He was John Finley from Clay township. Her mother was the former Caroline Danforth. Mary had 6 sisters and 3 brothers. How are you connected to Uncle Fred's family.....

I have a lot of Glassburn information. Also there is a book at the library in Gallipolis written by Ona Glassburn which starts with David Glassburn of Virginia. He was the beginning of most of the Gallia county Glassburns. I will be glad to share what I've got. Just let me know who you're looking for. Connie Rhea Rowe

Cheryl, I have a Glassburn who married Rosa Langdon, from Bidwell. That part of my research is not developed and it was my grandfather Logue's line! Both my mother's parents are from Gallia County and go back to before 1800. Wouldn't you think that I could connect with some researchers somewhere in all of those lines? How frustrating! Karen
