Hi! I have a strange one - does anyone out there have a good guess what first name a woman who was called Bloomy could have had? I'm working on Bloomy Kniffin that married Charles Atwater, they had a daughter Cecelia. - I have all the info from the books but I can't seem to decipher who would be her parents. I beginning to thing Bloomy wasn't her real first name. Lisa P. Working on WATTS, SWIMMER, LUFF, ATWATER, KNIFFIN

I found one of mine that way, I ordered it and it was indeed the right one, I guess someone just referenced it that way when they entered it. The other poster mentioned checking Indiana and she may very well be right.

Does anyone have any information about Eleanor and Samuel? Thanks. Anne Roede Giddings in CT >> Hi Anne, Here are some bits and pieces on Samuel & Eleanor BROWN that might help you locate Eleanor's death certificate. I couldn't find a death record on her, or her son J. Wilson BROWN, in our Huron County, Ohio publications. I can't help but wonder if they might have moved away from Huron County sometime after the death of Samuel in 1888. 1. Huron County, Ohio Cemetery Inscriptions. Nineveh Cemetery, Greenwich Township. Page 173. Row 10. 6 Katherine M. KNIFFEN w/o J. Wilson BROWN, 1869-1904. 7 Mother Eleanor 1833-1926. Father Samuel 1829-1888. 2. Death Index 1867-1908. Samuel BROWN d. 12/09/1888. 3. Huron County, Ohio Marriages, 1815-1900, by Scheuer Publications, 1992. Joseph Wilson BROWN m. Kittie May KNIFFIN 7 Mar 1885. Book 4, Page 272. 4. Atlas of 1873, Huron County, Ohio. Samuel BROWN, Greenwich Twp, page 45, section 2, lot 8, 100 acres. Note: The property of a Benjamin KNIFFIN adjoins that of Samuel's to the east (400 acres), and to the south (48.5 acres). 5. Atlas of 1891, Huron County, Ohio. Sam'l. BROWN, Greenwich Twp, page 47, section 2, lot 7, 100 acres. (Could this be his estate, since the cemetery inscription had his death date as 1888?) 6. Picturesque Huron County, Ohio, 1896. Page 183. Depicts the "Residence of Mrs. Eleanor BROWN, Greenwich Township. Erected in 1840." (What appears to be a man and a young child are standing in front of the house.) 7. 1870 Census Index, Huron County, Ohio. Samuel BROWN, age 41, born in OH, census page 312 for Greenwich Township. Other BROWNs, apparently part of Samuel's family, appear on census page 312A for Greenwich Township. Read first name, age, and place of birth. Charles, 4, IN Ella, 36, IN Fanny, 6, IN Harry, 10, IN Nancy, 1. OH William, 1, OH Wilson, 8, IN. If Ella here is your Eleanor/Ella, and Wilson is J. Wilson, it would seem this could be your family of Samuel and Eleanor/Ella. The approximate birth years, based on the ages given, seem to fit. It would further suggest that Samuel and Ella were married by, or before, 1860, and they moved to OH from IN sometime 1866-1869. This Wilson would have been about the right age (23) when he married Kittie May KNIFFIN in 1885. A final thought: have you checked the Indiana death records to see if Ella/Eleanor Brown might have returned to Indiana sometime after the death of her husband? Regards, Ken Shute, in MD (kwsroots@aol.com).

Nancy, thank you for the look up. I am a little curious as to why the EASTWOODs are indexed in with the EASTERWOODs. I have found these names interchanged in census indexes, but there I know the handwriting is a problem. And usually EASTERWOODs are indexed as EASTWOODS. In this case, it is the opposite case.

Got the information. Where do I write to get this information? Most Sincerely Ann annieb437@yahoo.com >> HI Ann, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "this information." The only thing missing from the online Index to the 1845 plat book is the actual location of the person's property, in relation to the property of others, and the amount of acreage he owns. Both pieces of information can be found on the map page that the last column in the online Index refers to. The Norwalk Public Library, 46 West Main St., Norwalk, OH 44857, holds a copy of the Huron County, Ohio Plat Book of 1845. You could write them to see if they could make a copy of the relevant plat book page(s) for you. If they can, there would probably be a charge for this. You might also chck with your local library for the possibility of requesting an interlibrary loan from another library. The County Recorder, Huron County Courthouse, 2 East Main St., Norwalk, OH 44857, holds land deeds, mortgage records, and plat records from 1808 to the present. If this is the level of detail you're interested in, then it might be worth your while to consider using a research volunteer living in the Norwalk area to try to dig it out for you. Information on this latter service (research done for you), as well as the above information, can be found on the HCC/OGS home page (www.rootsweb.com/~ohhuron). Regards, Ken Shute, in MD.

Jacob Lena Heather/Huther/Heether to Cora (?) about 1881 Thank you for your help, Marjean Workman >> Hello Marjean, I'm afraid I could find no references to any of the three RITTERSDORF/HEATHER marriages you cited, including surname spelling variations, in our Huron County, Ohio Marriage book.
