Hi Everyone, I was given this reference for a will: Francis MEDLEY 1780 - June 6, 1874 Guernsey County, Ohio; Vol. O, Pg. 172 - 173 But I have been informed that there is something wrong with the citation for Guernsey Co., their will books go letters A,B,C,D and then start with the number 1. A will probated in 1874 would be a will book #1 citation. volume "O" reference doesn't make sense. Since Francis Medley is said to be buried in Smyrna Methodist Episcopal Cemetery, Piedmont, Harrison County, OH. I am wondering if this is actually a reference to Harrison County Wills. If anyone can tell me if there are will books for Harrison County or how I would go about finding information or an index for wills, it would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to thank everyone who responded to Leo with information. He is just tickled. We are compiling into his genealogy program. We all survived the hurricane and are again working on this. If you missed his request for help, please, email if you have information for him Thank you Brenda --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!

Does anyone know who is buried at the Ferguson Cemetery, and can someone give me directions (from I-77 South)? Also, I would like a list of cemeteries in Moorefield Twp. of Harrison County, if anyone has them. Thanks for the help. Linda Ferguson Martis

Does anyone have information about this person? He was listed in the 1830 census in Moorefield Twp., Harrison County. I am hoping to find out his wife's name, and names of his children, or at least of his sons. His wife's name MAY have been Rachel, and he may have had a son John (born in 1816). He may also have been born in Maryland, and his wife in Pennsylvania. Has anyone heard of him?

I'm looking for any information on William JONES in Harrison County. I have reviewed all census data and garnered all that I can from this source. I'm hoping someone who has family information can help. The William JONES that I'm interested in is the father to Letticia JONES (1819 OH) who married John B. WILSON in 1840 and then all moved to Meigs County, Ohio by 1850. William JONES (1784 DE) was married to Catherine Appleton (1793 PA). Any information is appreciated, especially parental information on William. Please respond to rwilson7@aol.com. Thanks in advance, Rick Wilson rwilson7@aol.com
