Thanks for the info on the cemetery Mt Ridge sounds familiar. Betty

I know that Gabriel Deal is buried there and shares a headstone with the Jarvis relatives. I'm looking for his wife Almeda who's according to her death certificate is also buried there and there may be others. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, February 22, 2004 6:56 PM Subject: Re: [OHJACKSO-L] Salem Cemetery-Directions > Sharon, > > Wellston Library can give you excellent driving directions. However, if construction isn't still messed up. It's LEFT off of HIWAY 93 SOUTH of Wellston. Turn LEFT (east) at the ROADS intersection (use to be called Berlin Crossroads before WWII). As you continue down this road...sorry I don't remember the name of it, you'll see a sign on your RIGHT (gravel road). You'll go up this road ABOUT 1/2 mile. There's a little white church there, still in operation...independent denomination...no church records. The outhouse has been torn down but there was still a picnic table there. If you don't bring your own stuff, Wellston has a KFC (also McDonalds) right on hiway 93 as you go south out of Wellston. Take plenty of bottled water.

Tacy, It apparently made it thru both Jackson and Vinton last night. I copied off one and deleted the other. Thanks, with Ratcliffs on my side it may prove helpful when I get a few minutes to sit down and read it throughly.

Have you been able to get any info from the county courts in the county where he died or the county where he lived before being committed? A court order may have been issued which could state why he was bing sent there.

You can download a form and send them $5.00 as long as you prove you are related and they will send you limited information. Not sure what they will send but that's what I was told.

I have tried everything that I can think of, but not that, wonder where I could get a form for that sort of thing. I would be greatful for anything you could get me on anyone there. Really all that I need is name,b&d dates, dates that they were there if possible, patient # and anything like that, and additional information is welcomed & appreciated. It is for a genealogy project I am working on,same way with the Children's Home patients.

Susan, His death certificate # is 15448 d. 3/25/1917 Athens Co. You can either get someone to go to OHS (Ohio Historical Society) or ORDER the Death Certificate for about $6.00 from OHS. It takes about 6 weeks to get. Go to www.ohiohistory.org Go to Archives & go to Resources and go to Death Certificates. THis is a VERY GOOD site. It lists STATE WIDE DC #'s ON LINE from 1917-1934. But they have 1909-1944 certificates. They haven't put them on line due to shortage of help and budget constraints. helen > > From: [email protected] > Date: 2004/02/23 Mon AM 12:16:46 EST > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [OHJACKSO-L] athens asylum > > My GGgrandfather, died there.

Medical records are protected due to privacy issue and particularly the lastest medical act past recently. That's partly also why some are coming up with "copies" of Death Certificates that are TYPED and not the full blown handwritten copy. See www.ohiohistory.org The OHS also has a form you can fill out if you are next of kin or the last remaining direct descendent. Due to privacy act, if you get the information, you should be sure that if there are any living descendents they don't come after you if you publish the information. (I'm not sure if you have to go there to actually see them. I don't think they make copies. sometimes, if I remember right, you tell them WHAT you are looking for and if the records have it, they can tell you without giving you a copy. Mental health issues in our society still carries a stigma. It shouldn't be that way but it is. Also....The "definition of "asylum" and "mental health" changes over the years. Sometimes it was SENILITY---caused by hardening of the arteries. Sometimes it was EPILEPSY and they didn't know about it them. Sometimes it could have been a "poor house" for the last remaining relative that no one could take care of any longer. Remember these folks had to work 12-13 hours a day to get the "chores" done. So....you have to ask yourself WHY do you want to know. I have tracked a couple of distant "cousins" by getting their DC. They ususally don't show the "real" place of burial OR they are reburied elsewhere except those that are on the "asylum" grounds.

I am hoping that the third time is a charm on this one, as I have tried twice before to post this on the Jackson list and it has bounced back. If it did actually make it through one of those times, I apologize for the double post. Tacy This letter was submitted by Bob Mankin to the Ross Co Genealogical Soc newsletter back in 1992-1993.  There it was shortened to just include the names and places mentioned, but thought I would send the entire letter on to these lists since many of the names are from the area.  Bob included info that the John Ratcliff Sr to whom the letter was written was b 1781 and d 1846.  His wife was Rachel Ray.  The writer, John Jr, was married first to Elizabeth Ratcliff (maiden name) who died in MO.  My line is thru one of the other Stretch siblings, Elizabeth who married William J Seymour in 1831 Ross co, and not to the Radcliffs at all.  Spelling, abbreviations and punctuation are as appear in the letter. Address on letter says: To the State of the Ohio, Ross County  pike run post office  to John Ratcliff senior   Bolivar Mo   Feb 7 1842 State of Missouri polk County bolover post office February the 7 day 1842.  Respected father and Mother I take mi pen in hand to rite a few lines to you to letyou know that we are all in toler. helth and all the rest of our relations as fair as I now at this time   hopeing theas few lines may find you all in Joying the same besing  also I receivid a letter from you By the hands of henry Nicklas on the 26..day of October Last past bearing date of September the 16..day 1841 which was great Satisfaction to us also I must inform you a little a bought they movers that Left Salt Creek Last fall past  thomas Stretch and thomas Cox Stoped in the indiana   gorg nicklas and abraham Strech Stoped in tha illinois  henry nicklas and Joseph Stretch and Lidia Strech reached the buflow herd porary [prairie] in the State of missouri  also henry nicklas moved in to one of mi cabins to winter and I Expect hewill move on to his land Shortley   he has got his hose up redy to cover it  he has bought one hudred and twenty acres of land  it lies about two miles and a half south East from whe I liv   also he appears to be well satisfide with tha country   you can tell Brother Jeremiah that his Entry that he maid was correct    I made no mistake I think I am correct   so turn over....[next page]  and now I must give you asketch of the times here  wheat is worth fifty cent pur bushel   corn is worth frm twenty five to thirty one and a forth cent pur bushel   oats about the Same   milk cows is worth about ten dollars pur head  oxon are low  horses is now Sale atull hardley.   ther is hardley any sutch a thing as to git any money here atall any more for any thing   corn crops wer very Lite  also oats wheat crop wer good if it wer [?] that tha crops wer generaly Lite her Last summer  we[?] sent for that grain would hardly sell atall we herd avery  dri summer here I think as dry summer as I ever saw in myu life  I am very oneasy in as much as tha times is so hard on the acount that I am so behind in paying for mi Land   also I would Like to know how the times is theire at this time   also I must tell you alittle about tha winter here in the first place we had awet and warm fall  also a wet and open winter on till about chrismas   also abundance of thunder and Lighening  we hav had but Little Snow here this wint. as yet   I think that if all tha Snow that has fell here this winter had afell at one time it woodent of bin more than shoe mouth deep   turn of January was generly [?] and warm the the 2 day also of february it clouded up and thundred and Liteenedy and severeley two and rained rapidly and tapered of with a litle snow and [?] clared up kno also the gras has started and the wheat looks green   I must inform you that gorge conley and Minty vanderford is married   also I must inform you that I hav come the best speed of hunting.  Last fall that I ever did of a fall in the next plase   I ciled the fatest deer that I ever saw in mi life  I ciled one buck in purticular that was tha Largest that I ever saw  ther one thing I must tel you that me an henry niclas and Joseph Stretch went out one morning to take a hunt   Shortley after ther Landed here to take a hund and in a bout two hours I ciled two four snag bucks  I can tell you that I hav been two trips to boonvile and one trip to warsaw  Last fall I think nothing of going a hundred or two miles of [?] [?] with a wagan for I have got us to it  here is a few lines that I want you to tell Jesse Ratcliff  that a count that he left with thomas Pile(?) for ellection on george dollel  he sued on the a count dolel n suited him  he said that it wasent dwo till fall and the Squire took dowels word for it so he throwed the cost on to Pile and he paid up the remainder of tha money  So I shuld quit that sub??

My GGgrandfather, died there. His name was Charles Jefferson Nelson, born 22Mar1847, died 25Mar1917. I would like to know what his affliction was but have not been able to get any information. I was told the records were destroyed some years before I requested them. The request would have been in the mid 1980s. Susan Nelson

Michigan Let me know I try and go to the library at least 4-5 times a month.
