Gallipolis Journal January 4, 1998 Edward -Jones At the home of the bride on December 29, 1897, Mr. Ellsworth E. Edwards, oldest son of Mr. Evan Edwards, of Rio Grande, and Miss Anna W. Jones, daughter of Mr. W. W. Jones, of Nebo, Gallia County, were united in marriage. The ceremony was performed by the bride's pastor, Rev. J. T. Davis, of Nebo. The best man was Mr. D. L. Jones , brother of the bride, and the bridesmaid Miss Alberta Edwards, of Columbus , sister of the groom. At precisely 12 o'clock the bridal party marched from the upper room down into the parlor and stood underneath an arch of evergreens where they were made husband and wife and recieved the congratulations of those present , after which they sat down to an elaborate dinner. only the immediate relatives of the groom and bride were present about thirty in number. They received many presents both valuable and useful. On the following day at the hhome of the goom , a reception was held by his parents for the newly married couple. There were about fifty relatives and friends present, who enjoyed a bountiful dinner. Among them the groom's grandmother, Mrs. Rickaboe,she being nearly eighty -eight years of age. Here again Mr. and Mrs. Edwards recieved the best wishes for their futrue life , and many precious gifts. The bride is held in high esteem by her many friends in Nebo, where she has always lived. She is a faithful member of the Welch Congrational church at that place. The groom is also well liked by his many firends, and is quite prominent in church work, he being the leader of the choir in Pine Church and he is also a member of the Rio Grande band, which seranaded them on the evening of their reception.

For Pat Loar: Nancy Carter to whom you refer was my ggg grandmother. As Denise mentioned in her post, this Nancy apparently is not the daughter of John Carter and Mary Lehr This Nancy married John Shoemaker in Gallia County, 2Dec1817. They had several children one of whom, Nancy Annette Shoemaker b 2Oct1830 in Gallia County, married John White 15Oct1848 in Gallia County. When John Shoemaker died in 1837, Nancy married John Boster in 1851 to whom you refered. After this John apparently died, she married ? Gouldin in 1852. If you check the Harrison Township Cemetery Book, it states that Nancy is probably buried along with first husband John Shoemaker at White Cemetery. I have been searching for these White - Carter-Shoemaker connections for a long time with no results. Would appreciate any info others might have. Marge White Gigante

Thanks, Kathi. The next time I go to my local FHS I'll be focusing on the Edwards line. I'll take your list of names with me and keep my eyes open for your names, too. Rachel

Thanks, Marian! That little David G. Lanthorn must have also been a son of Lewis Able Lanthorn's. I take it that these extra listings are from the Lanthorn Cemetery. That would be great if you could send Walter's will. Marian, I forgot to ask. Where do you come into this family? By the way, yes, I'm big on sources too. I always think that it's a fair question to ask. I believe, however, that there are a fair number of folks that just gather information that's posted on the internet and call it done. That's scary to me, because they can easily propagate erroneous data, and if everyone has one date (even if it's wrong), it certainly becomes more believable. Thanks on those blessings!

There is a row of graves marked with fieldstone plus several scattered graves. Jean, I imagine that the small infant grave is one of the 2 children that Sarah and Francis must have had that died in infancy. I had found the obit for Sarah in my meanderings and had it saved for Linda but seeing the cemetery listing prompted me to go ahead and transcribe it for those who might want it.

Gallipolis Tribune May 14, 1925 Obituary Sarah K. Markins Crouse, daughter of William and Sarah Fillinger Markins , was born in Gallia County , Ohio , Aug 21, 1849 and departed this life near her birthplace April 9, 1925, aged 75 years, 8 months and 18 days. She was converted at Macedonia thirty years ago and joined that church where she continued a faithful member until death. She was married to Francis Marion Neal in the year 1870 and to this union were born three children , two of whom died in infancy, and Arthur of Haskin, Ohio. Mr Neal died in the year 1876 and she united in marrieage to JOhn Crouse in 1877. To this union were born two children, namely, Mrs. Gilbert Carter of Huntington, WVa and Mrs. Noah Carter who took care of thier mother in her afflictions. Mrs. Crouse was afflicted by the dreaded disease , tuberculosis; for over a year but was not confined to her bed for more than a few days. In all of her afflictions she bore her suffering without any complaint, only waiting for her Redeemer to call her to her peaceful rest where she will gain a Christian's reward laid up for those who do their Master's will. Mrs. Crouse lived a beautiful life and was loved by all who knew her. She was a kind and dutiful compainion, always helping her husband in all things which are necessary to raising their family. She was a loving mother, very dear to her children and grandchildren . She will be sadly missed by the entire commuity, but mostly by her companion, her children, fourteen grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, one brother S. M. Markins of Irwin , Ohio, one sister Susan Brothers of Gallipolis and a host of distant relatives and friends. Card of Thanks We extend our thanks to the friends and neighbors for their kindness shown us through the sickness and death of our dear wife and mother.

Hi Marian, Thanks for the Lanthorn information. I had that information on John. Several other researchers have additional children for John and Cassandra Lanthorn that showed up after the 1880 census. I'm not sure where they got that information. I have corresponded with one of these guys, and after the initial contact, I have not heard from him. I must have thrown him by asking about his sources... Is cousin Linda the same as Linda Yeakle? I have corresponded with her before. I believe that Elizabeth (Griffith) Lanthorn Neal was born in Pennsylvania too. However, I think that I saw that at least one of the censuses states that she was born in Virginia. Pennsylvania seems a lot more believable since the family was there before. David was the youngest of the Lanthorns (that I know about) born before David Sr. died. He was on the 1850 census with Elizabeth and Walter, but doesn't appear with the family after that. Perhaps he died between 1850 and 1860. Do you happen to have Walter Neal's will or a transcription of it? I wonder if he is mentioned in it. If he's not, then it's a good guess that he died "young," since all of the other children were named. - Jean -----Original Message----- From: Ruth Schoonover [mailto:JANDMBUG@peoplepc.com] Sent: Sunday, April 24, 2005 12:59 PM To: OHGALLIA-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [OHGALLIA-L] Lanthorn, John and David Dear Tom, I am scanning and sending my sheets on John Lanthorn.

I think that the Nancy Carter you are referring to is a niece or sister of John Carter, this Nancy Carter was born Sept. 1898, married an Allison and died in 1951. However, I am attempting to find out more about the Nancy Carter you mentioned, Henry Carter and Issac Carter. All of these people were in Gallia County early. Let me know if you have the White-Shoemaker-Carter marriages I sent last month. I have been doing background work on the people John Carter sold land to, especially those where the land was sold exceptionally under what should have been market value. There is even a land transaction between John Carter and Armstrong, for dower rights. One piece of land was to a White who had married a Shoemaker, whose mother was a Carter. It is difficult, rather like traveling to Gallipolis from Columbus via Cleveland, but is has established a link between the families. Let me know what information you have on your Nancy and I will add her to the list if she is not already there, I will check.

Rachel, the only Edward Edwards I have in my line (as of yet) was the son of Isaac Edwards (b. 1856) and Mary Winnifred Jones. Isaac died and was buried in Saxman, Kansas, but I have no idea yet when he moved there and who went with him. I'll keep your post with my Edwards information. If I come across anything, I'll be sure to let you know.

Dear Tom, I am scanning and sending my sheets on John Lanthorn. I don't think I have seen anything for a David. All the Lanthorn children were listed in Walter Neals Will. Will check that out.and get back to you. We show Elizabeth Griffth was born in Pa. Think I have some more info. on that. We have a cousin Linda who lives in Michigan. I'm sure she will jump in here too. I gave her a lot of information and she has shared more with me on the work I hadn't done. More later.
