    3. Shirley, There is a Courtright list on Roosweb that I'm also subscribed too. You might want to check there is you want to connect to other WV branches. All the Courtrights connect if you go back to the early 1700's. My John Courtright didn't live too far from the (W)VA border, even when he moved to Ohio. Yes that's the same Susanna Kittle, she married 2x, didn't know abt the 3rd. She had her last child baptized in 1780 (my ancestor John Cortright) , however I have no proven date of death for her husband, so she could have married a 3rd time. There were actually 2 different branches of Cortrights in Huron Co., OH. Solomon (s/o Bastian K & Rachel Decker) died in Huron Co in 1844. His kids however moved on , don't think anyone stayed. In my line 2 sons of my John Courtright ended up there. Neither are my direct line however I'm very interested in them. Thanks to Mary Bickford I was able to make a little headway on the Huron folks. Sometime between 1831-1839 Jacob V. Courtright, oldest s/o John, moved to Norwich Twp., Huron. From 1840-1920 I find some of this family there & in nearby Attica, Seneca Co., OH. Jacob was married to Polly Thomas c1819 in Carroll, Harrison, Jefferson or Columbiana Co., OH. In the 1820 Columbiana Co.census they had 1 daughter. By 1830 in Jefferson Co., OH 3 children including John & Harmon B. Courtright found later in Huron as well. In Harmon's military history found on pg 17 of Military History of Huron County, Ohio (Civil War), by HCC/OGS, 1989, it gives his birthplace as Carroll co., OH & names his parents. It goes on to say that his mother was the d/o a War of 1812 Vet & related to a Rev. War General, first names not given however. Harmon married Harriett Maria Thatcher 1839 in Seneca Co. They had 5 children & this is where it gets tangled. His youngest son Grant Courtright married his 2nd cousin Martha Courtright c1893, either in Huron, Seneca or Carroll Co., OH. Martha was the d/o James Courtright & Barbara Cook. James was the s/o Isaac Courtright & Sarah Norris, & Isaac was the brother of Jacob V. Courtright. James C. & Barbara Cook lived most of their life in Carroll Co but at some time moved up to Huron. They are buried in the New Greenwood Cem., in New Haven Twp., Huron Co. that's enough confusion for one message I think!
