That early in time (1829), there most likely are not any records unless early church records for the cemetery exist, if kept. The information at Spring Grove would most likely have been taken from a headstone or some type of wood marker. In that time frame (as in many remote areas today), it could have been that the family dug the grave, did the service/asked a minister or ? to say some words and that was all the record there was/is. It also could have been a situation of the time that the family just picked a spot in the cemetery and the headstone let others know that someone was there. ... You might check with the historical society for early Presbyterian records for that church. They also could have been passed to another Presbyterian church in Cincy. Keep in mind also that early burials were in wood coffins, if any coffin (family choice & cost). There may not have been much to move.

I have forwarded your Hengelbrok request to a cousin of mine whose mother's maiden name was Hengelbrok. Also when I get home from a trip i am on, I will look in my database and send you what information I have on the Hengelbrok family, if any. Where are you in Oregon? I have some family there too that I am trying to work on. My Oregon surnames are CLASEN, FRATERS AND a few others. Denise Ratterman Jackson ==========Does anyone on the list have access to or could point me towards the location of the following marriage record: Franz Hengelbrock (various spellings Henkelbrok, Hinglebrock,etc) and Mary Angelica Maier (Meyer,etc) between 1842 and 1845 probably in Cincinnati, possibly in Newport KY. Thank you for your help. Stephanie in Oregon===============

Thanks for asking about Salt Lake City. I really REALLY wanted to go and I enjoy meeting everyone at the conferences. But I have pretty much decided to go to the G.H.O.T.E.S. conference on the Eastern Shore of Virginia instead as I want to try to find out more about my KEYSER line. IF I can get caught up with my work. For anyone with ancestors from that region, there is a great little courthouse in Eastville (VA) that holds the longest running court records in the U.S. I've been there and it is, to me, a wonderful little place (and great crabcakes in that area!). Have fun in SLC.

Good Morning, A couple of months ago there was mention on this list of a booklet of Cincinnati Mirror Abstracts for 1831-33 by Paul Immel and Carol Montrose. Someone posted Carol's address to order one. I wrote and have had no reply; does anyone have an update on her address, I presume she doesn't email. I am still interested in purchasing this. Thank you for your help. Stephanie in Oregon -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm

For those of you who enjoy etymology :-) my dictionary (Webster's 7th collegiate, 1970) gives the following as the source of the word: from Middle English dropesie, short for ydropesie, from Old French, from Latin hydropisis, modification of Greek hydrops, from hydor meaning water: EDEMA Probably, more than you wanted to know, but just in case you were more interested in the derivation of the word, rather than just the definition. -----Original Message----- From: NatrLvrnMT@aol.com [mailto:NatrLvrnMT@aol.com] Sent: Saturday, August 27, 2005 9:22 AM To: OHHAMILT-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [OH-HAMILT] What is "dropsy?"

Gayle, I have set up a page on the Hamilton Co. OHGenWeb site (http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohhamilt/mnpg.html) that lists all of the books (that I could find) & if they are available & where. http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohhamilt/books.html Little Miami Publishing is the current publisher for the Gen. Soc. books. Heritage Books was formerly their publisher & apparently still has some of the older books available. I'm not sure where Frontier Press comes in, but at this time I've gotten feed back that they have not responded to e-mail's so we are not really sure if they are even in business. There are some books that I've listed that are now out of print but I understand if there are enough requests Little Miami Publishing will consider a reprint. Barbara Keyser Gargiulo of Little Miami Publishing has been keeping me updated as new books are going to print.
