    1. [OHHAMILT] Cincinnati early burials and cholera epidemic records?
    2. My ancestor John Williamson who was a very early resident of Cincinnati (since 1803), on Water near what is now the Suspension Bridge. He probably died during the cholera epidemic (Between the 1830 City Directory publishing/1830 census and his Will Inventory dated Nov. 22, 1831 witness: Isaac G. Burnet). He was a cabinetmaker, as were his sons John, Daniel, Charles and William. Are there any lists of victims available, and where could he have been buried? I'm not finding him in any index. He was probably of German descent. Thanks so much for any ideas! Kimberly **************Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars.

    3. It is my understanding that the earliest Cincy cemeteries are gone. Wesleyan is pre Spring Grove but they (Wesleyan) has had burials from some (not all) earlier cemetery / burial locations moved in there. Spring Grove may have also but you'll have to check with them on that. Following is a link to ftp files for Wesleyan which may NOT be error free. http://files.usgwarchives.org/oh/hamilton/cemeteries/wesleyan/ A site for Wesleyan done by volunteers and a work still in progress: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ohhamcem/ -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2008 9:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [OHHAMILT] Cincinnati early burials and cholera epidemic records?
