I am seeking information on the mother of Olive Jane REA/TIMBS. Mary EMMONDS is listed as being the mother of Olive Jane on the death certificate which was signed by her husband William TIMBS. I do not have much to go on other than a death certificate that lists Mary EMMONDS as being from Scotland. Also, I found EMMONS deaths at: http://www.rbhayes.org/obits/search3.asp (thank you Bobbie). This has two EMMONS dying, one in Milan and the other in Florence. Did not know if this would be a connection to 'my' Mary EMMONS. Here is what I know: Olive Jane REA b. January 9, 1843 d. December 20, 1915 parents: Johnston REA b. December 24, 1790 d. January 3, 1881 Mary EMMONDS First I have Johnston REA marrying an Elizabeth JOHNSTON April 25, 1833 in Elyria (Lorain County). No other information. I have a Lovina on a deed made in 1838, Lorain County, with Johnston REA as husband. I have a Malissa listed with Johnston REA in the 1850 census of Black River (Lorain County). I also have a will of Malissa RAY, Elyria, Ohio, made March 23, 1857; probated June 19, 1857; mentions son Hiram F. RAY. This was presented to the court by Charles H DOOLITTLE, and M. RAY Cousins. This gives her house and lot situated in Amherst Twp., County of Lorain and State of Ohio, and being the whole of lot number 23 in the town plat of Amherstville. Would this be one in the same as to a Mary EMMONDS? Or could this be Johnston REA's elusive sister? I have Johnston REA on an 1852 deed where he says he is of Florence, Erie County with Lovina. I have a Lovina listed with Johnston REA in the 1860 and 1870 census of Florence Twp. (Erie County). I have the death certificate of Lovina that lists her as being from Rochester, PA. I have Johnston REA on two early plat maps - the latest being 1873 in Wakeman, Huron County. Lovina and Johnston are living with their son, Theodore, on the 1880 census in Wakeman, Huron County. I have Lovina buried in Wakeman Cemetery, Huron County. Where is Johnston buried? Thank you for any insight that you might give. Mary McG in Tennessee
