Hello Holmes County list members, I'm new to the list and writing to see if any of y'all might be able to help me out. I'm pulling together the paperwork for a Sons of the Revolution application, but my documentation is week for a few generations. I've listed the four generations that I have only week proof for at the bottom of this e-mail. I have census records from 1850 through 1880 showing the lineage. This helps, but the Sons of the Revolution state that while they don't exclude census records, they should be enhanced by vital records, wills, deeds or something that provides stronger proof. So my question is: does anyone have any wills, deeds or any other records of any kind (in addition to the census records that I already have) that would help prove the week links listed below? I'd appreciate any help that your might be able provide. Thanks in advance. Peter Neville These are my weak links in summary: 5. Samuel Tilden Neville (1876-1965) OH>CO, m. Alice Matilda Bucy (1878-1958) OH>CO [great grandparents] Moved from Holmes Co, OH to Colorado before 1913 6. George T. Neville (1839 - 1900) OH, m. Malona Ray (1841 - 1901) OH [g, great grandparents] 7. Jonathan Neville (1806 - 1872) PA>OH, m. Sarah Ellen Bucklew (1809 - 1865) WV - OH [g, g, great grandparents] Homes County, OH -- Berlin Township, moved to Killbuck after 1850

Peter, You need to find records that state relationships. Relationships on Census records were not recorded until the 1880 Census, then later Bob Strock peter.j.neville@census.gov wrote: > > Hello Holmes County list members, > > I'm new to the list and writing to see if any of y'all might be able to > help me out.
