Thanks to all (including Lori) who sent me the link! I went to the family search labs page where I obtained an address from an ancestor's death certificate (my grandfather's cousin) who died in 1945. Then I went to the Hamilton County Auditor's site and looked up the image of the house. Lo and behold, the house is in a number of photos I have with people sitting on the steps. I never knew who the people were or where this house was located. I'm so excited to have found another piece of the puzzle!! Two really fantastic web sites! Phyllis

My brother, Fred, and I (both on this list) have been researching the Totton family in Hamilton Co., sometimes spelled Totten. It starts with Joseph Totton, b. 1760 in NJ and d. 1811 in Cincinnati, and his wife Anne Allen. They are the parents of our 3rd g-grandmother, Rachel Totton Seaman (1793-1866). They also had a dau. Catherine, who married Aquilla Corson, and a son, John (1800-1879) who married Jane Burlew. Many of John & Jane's children died in infancy or childhood. There are quite a few Totton/Tottens that we've seen in the death records, and at Pioneer Cemetery, but we just can't connect to them. Is anyone knowledgeable about this family? Perhaps Joseph & Ann Totton had other sons besides John, but I've been unable to find a record, and I've searched ancestry, rootsweb, and family search among other websites. Fred has found cemetery markers at Pioneer, including a 4-sided marker for these Tottons: George M. (1867-1867); Cora L. (1864-1873); John J. (1870-1871); and Carrie E. (1863-1868). These names don't match any I've been able to document so far, and the dates lead me to think that there is another Totton line that is somehow connected. Thanks for any help or advice where to look next. Martha Federle

Glad we could help you Phyllis. And that is so awesome that you were able to find the house from your old pictures. Finds like that are priceless.
