Hi, I am new on this list. Does anyone know if any of the Greene Co. Cemetery records are listed on line. One I need is the Mt. Zion Cemetery at Jamestown. Thanks in advance. Mary Ross

Still seeking information on family of John Malin Carder(Carter). John was born in Clarksburg, Harrison Co., Va., now W. Va. in Oct. 1822 Have been unable to find out who is father was & this drives me crazy. On the 1850 Greene Co. census, his mother is listed as Elisabeth., age 47, born Va. Our oral family history says that she ws a full-blooded Cherokee from North Carolina so I am not sure which is true, Va. or N.C. On the 1850 census is also listed 3 of John's siblings: Joseph, born about 1829 in Va., Stephen, born about 1838 in Ohio, Nancy A., born about 1842 in Ohio. This puts the family as moving to Ohio between the late 1820's & late 1830's. On this census is also John's second wife, Caroline Morris born about 1830 in Va. & Amanda Morris, born about 1832 in Va. Amanda ws probably her sister. They lived in Xenia Township. John married 3 times in Xenia. First to Elizabeth Steen in 1847, then to Caroline Morris in 1849. They both died young. He married Eliza Jane Dobbins in 1855 & they were married 56 years when he died. I have also found in Xenia during the same time frame, an Adeline Carder who married Thomas Steen in 1847, a Susan Carder who married Moses Steen in 1848. Possibly Elizabeth Steen's brothers? I also have a Mary Ann Dobbins who lived in Xenia & was only 2 years younger than Eliza Jane. The Carder, Steen & Dobbins families seem to intertwine. I would like to find whatever I can on them. John M. & Eliza (Dobbins) Carder moved to Hardin, then Logan Co. Their children lived in these 2 counties as adults. My big questions are who were John m. Carder & Eliza J. Dobbins' parents & siblings. I would appreciate anything anyone finds on Carder/Carter, Steen (Steene, Stein ), & Dobbins. Thanks. Deb Carder

I know of a Frank Snyder B abt 1870 M Rittie ?, they lived in Ross Co. and moved to differents town around that. They had several children Clay, Foster, Warren B 1906 , David ,Marion , Frank Jr. and two daughters Marie and Ruth. Also William G. Beal married Mary Admanda Bargdoll in 1860, they had these children Clara Jane, Joseph F. Mary A. & William H. Beal. Let me know if this helps and maybe we could trade information Thank you Kurt Pickering wrote: > Question, Listers: > > If a widower had to put a child in an orphanage in the Greene County, OH, > area in the late 1870s, where would that orphange most likely be? > > My great-great grandfather Joseph F.

Does anyone who is doing research on Millers in Greene Co, know anything about an Anthony(or possibly Arthur)b. 1822 in OH, and m. to a Suzanne Eckman b. Greene Co Abt. 1826. A relatives research to get into the DAR from many years ago gave me this information, but I found a Suzanne Eckman, the correct age still living in her father's household on the 1850 census. I can't find an Anthony Miller with a wife Suzanne in that area. My previous information listed children born before 1850 also. Suzanne was the d/o Jacob Eckman,III and Mary Ann(Polly) Harshman Eckman. Jacob was born in PA 1797. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone? I know there is alot of Eckman research out there. cbj ----- Original Message ----- From: "David G.

It is not true that all of the items from the Glossinger Center were lost. Be sure to visit the Greene County Historical Society complex behind the Galloway Log House, at 74 W. Church St. Museum hours are Tues. thru Fri 9-12 and 1-3:30. We are also open on Sat. and Sun. afternoons in the summer from 1:30-4:00. However, Sat. and Sun. hours do not provide assistance with research. If you want to contact me directly, I can provide you with further assistance.

Hi Listers, Let me add my voice to that for '65,'75,'85 State censuses. I'd like to put more meat on the Glossinger bones, so to speak! My Great Grandfather John Glossinger, who immigrated to Ohio where he joined his sister Margaret Glossinger Rinck, and his brother Jacob Rinck in Xenia, a year or two before the Civil War began, served 4 years in the Union Army and incurred several wounds..His complete pension records from NARA have filled in quite a bit of info that I had never known before, especially through his wife Magdalena's deposition for a pension increase, after John died in 1897. I have NO idea when John arrived in America. Lena says 1860. One deposition from a close friend of his says John was there in 1858 or '59. I have "combed" the Germans to America CD #355, 1850-1874, looking for him under any possible spelling of Glossinger that I can come up with, with no luck. I've searched thru the appropriate volumes of the "Germans to America" series at our local public library. I've looked on my other immigration CDs as well, even tho they're not German. John apparently did not apply for citizenship as he was entitled to as a Veteran...there is no record that I have found so far. His date of emigration would have been stated there. Does anyone have any suggestions? My cousin and I plan to be in Xenia the last week of July to research our Glossinger roots. I just wish the Glossinger building (Saloon) were still standing. Does anyone know for sure where I can find a photo of it? Or of any of the buildings in the first two blocks of Main Street going east from Detroit. John and Jacob had a number of saloons and a restaurant in those two blocks For that matter, I wish the John Glossinger (the younger) Cultural Center hadn't fallen victim to the terrible tornado of 1974. My cousin attended the dedication in 1964. It is my understanding that ALL of the artifacts/records that had been on display and/or stored in the house were lost. Is this correct? Thanks for listening to my ramblings...I seldom write to lists, so I'm making up for it all at once.

Hi, Listers, Still looking for confirmation of marriage between Philip D. Dick (b. 1860---son of John Dick & Elisabeth Morningstar) and Ida M. Karn(s) b.1869---dau. of John Karn(s) and Elizabeth Stoffer/Stauffer. Thanks for any all help or information. God bless. Barb R.

Hello! I am interested in knowing the origins of the surname Wiechers. I am not sure where it originated but I have heard Germany. Thank you! Genealogy is my past, my present, and my future! ~Christopher D. Lott~

This may have been asked but I can't recall. I'm looking for directions to Farifield Cemetery located on Broad Street in Fairborne Twp. I'm familiar with Rt35 and N. Fairfield so directions to the cemetery from there would be great. Thanks, Steve

I saw Bland in the subject line.......I have a small amount of info on Bland. Tootsie "David G. Miller" wrote: > Kelly, what Miller line are you researching?

Hi Kelly, Well Jamestown is right. My Millers lived in Jamestown and Cedarville. However, I don't have a Lawrence Miller of that age. I don't have much on Millers born that late. I am working on the 1810-1850 range, primarily.

Hi Dave :o) I fear I have not been able to trace very far back. Only to my GG-Grandfather, Charles Miller (b. 9 Oct 1851) and my GG-Grandmother, Elizabeth Malsbary Miller (b. 18 Aug 1846). I find them in the 1880 census in Jasper Township, Fayette Co, Ohio. Charles is a carpenter and a neighbor nearby is William A. Miller, who is also a carpenter. I am attempting to find if there was any relation, but so far have had little luck finding anything. My G-Grandfather, Lawrence Miller (b. 28 Sept 1879), was a blacksmith and he lived in Jamestown, Greene Co., Ohio. I couldn't really tell you if this line is related to your line, however, if any of this information rings any bells with you, I would love to find out more information. Thanks :o) Kelly P.S. The Bible I recently acquired, was originally given to Elizabeth, by Charles in 1896 and has only that family units information of births, marriages and deaths.

Greetings list- I have recently come into possession of my Miller line family bible and in it, were some pictures. The only one with identification was a picture of 2 young children who are identified as Harold ( 5 yrs) and Alta Louise (3 mos.) Bland. Is there anyone with this line and also might know the connection of the Blands to the Millers? The picture looks to be late 1800's, early 1900's. Thank you. Kelly
