Hello, I am interested in a look up for Josiah Root and his wife Phebe Vinton Root. His DOB 27 Feb 1768 Willington CT. He and Phebe both died in Huron Co. They had 7 children. My ancestor was their son David Vinton Root of which I know little of substance. David left Ohio, I don't know when but he married Margaret McDonald abt 1846 in MO. Thank you in advance for your time. Barb Campbell
