This year's was just this past weekend in Wilmington. Next year's will be in Akron, I think. There are two full days of sessions, with numerous speakers and classes, as well as chapter booths and vendors with genealogical items for sale. Since you just missed that, you might be interested to know that OGS is also having a summer workshop at the OGS library in Mansfield, June 21-25. More details are available online at the OGS website, www.ogs.org . OGS also sponsors three lineage societies, First Families of OH (pre-1821), Settlers and Builders of OH (1821-1860), and Society of Civil War Families of OH (1861-1865, direct and collateral descendants who served from AND/OR lived in OH). Check it all out at the above website!

It was in July in Columbus. A very nice get together!! With classes and speakers etc... Not sure when and where the next one is. The really nice thing was the Ohio History Center brought over their micro film and readers and all could have a turn to do research right on the spot. And leave with a printed death or birth record in hand... I think it was both Dealth and birth.. I forget now, but it was very nice.. Susie

Hi again Dennis: Would you please check your book for YATES. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Shirley

Hi, I'm typing out some things that were on copies of items I've got regarding Davis or Davies. None of these people are in my family, but I thought I'd share and hopefully help someone else. Karen Standard Journal Apr 11, 1900 Mr. Morgan E. Davis, a prosperous young teacher who closed a good and successful term of school at Fox Den about two weeks ago, started for the Ohio Wesleyan University at Delaware, where he will attend school the coming summer. We wish him the greatest of success. Mr. Thomas J. Jones of Jackson, was visiting in this neighborhood the latter part of last week. Herdman J.A. Ward of Rocky Hill, Ohio, taught the Vegas school the past winter. His school closed April 5. A short program was rendered in the afternoon and evening in which the following participated. Afternoon-Recitations by Irma Jenkins, Charley Wilmore, Alice Fink, Johnnie Scurlock, Edna Jenkins, Jennie A. Davis, Opal Patterson, Cora Fink, Loda Manring, Talford Jenkins, and Ola Wilmore. Select reading by Clyde Davis, Sherman Lackey, Wallie Lackey, and Edward Evans. Evening- Recitations by Ola Wilmore, Johnnie Hawker, Katie Belleville, Johnnie Scurlock, Irma Jenkins, Charley Wilmore, Jennie A. Davis, Gertrude Ward, Talford Jenkins, and Emma Patterson. Select reading by Clyde Davis, Edward Evans, Wallie Lackey and Sherman Lackey. Hewit Mrs. Stephen Arthur died at her home in Lawrence county, Thursday, March 29. The funeral services were held at Bloom Furnace March 31, after which the remains were taken to South Webster for burial. Cross Roads Mrs. Alice Marsh and Mrs. Belle Buckley gave a birthday dinner at the home of their parents Mr. and Mrs. Finley McNeal last Thursday in honor of their father, he being 81 years old that day. He was born in 1819, and was the son of Dr. Gabriel McNeal, one of the pioneer settlers of Jackson county. A photograph of the house and 18 persons were taken by Miss Amy Marsh of Eifort, a granddaughter of Mr. McNeal.

Hi Denny. I have several ancestors who were born in Wales and came to the Gallia county area and would appreciate it if you have time to look for them in the book. They are: John and Elizabeth Lewis and their daughter, Zillah. Daniel Simon Jones who was a minister and tailor in Centerville and Dr. Daniel Thomas Jenkins who came from Wales at age 3 with his mother whose name was Anne. Any help you find will be appreciated. judie [email protected]
