I think a Car - Lader is the same as Car Knocker or just plain Carman who checks hoses and brakes on the various cars and they also do other repairs.

A Car Lader is the person responsible for making up the bill of lading for the contents of each car. Faith

I thought it was George Johnston, but it was George Johnson, so, there wasn't a connection. But I'll keep the info around because I keep finding more families in Jefferson Cty that I am related to. All of my Mom's side was there at one time. It must have been a major stopping off point. I'll need to do more research on the county itself to know more about all these people. Thanks for sending it to me, tho. jan

Sorry, the O.G.S. Index to Early Marriages only goes to 1820. No Hiram in there. Jan

Sorry, no Garrettsons in O.G.S. Jefferson County Marriages, Jan

No problem. I get a thrill out of somebody else hittig the jackpot, too. That's one thing really neat about the genealogy network. There are so many people willing to help. Sometimes we have been the recipient of and are passing it on and sometimes we just know somebody will do the same for us some day. You very seldom finding anyone asking "tit for tat." Enough of my philosophy. On with the show... Page 191 of "Death Records in Steubenville, Ohio Newspapers" compiled by Leila S. Francy. JOHNSON The sudden and unlooked for death of Dr. THOMAS JOHNSON , under peculiarly [sic] distressing circumstances, has cast a gloom over this community such as has seldom been equaled...no one seemed to realize his danger until he was gone past medical assistance...a modest unassuming man...a long and successful practice in this city... Dr. Thomas Johnson was born in Washngton county, PA, May 21, 1811,...had but recently passed his 68th birthday. He received his collegiate education at the old Jefferson College at Cannonsburg...studied medicine with his brother, then a practice at Bloomfield,...moving in 1836 to Steubenville...continued in practice there...a period of 43 years. In 1839 he was married to Miss Catherine Johnson, a distant relative....This union was blessed with six children--Thomas, John, David, George, Kate and Lizzie---all of whom with the mother, are living, five of them under the home roof, while the remaining one is still a resident of this city. Eulogy...for 30 years he has been chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Second Presbyterian Church. Funeral Friday. --Stuebenville Weekly Gazette, Friday, June 20, 1879 Page 191 of "Death Records in Steubenville, Ohio Newspapers" compiled by Leila S. Francy. VANZANT The friends and acquaintances of MRS. J. R. VANZANT in this city will be pained to hear of her death, which sad event took place Suday morning at her home in Zanesville, Ohio, of cancer in the breast. The deceased was the daughter of Mr. George Johnson of Allegheny City and was about 43 years of age. In 1857 she was married to J. R. Vanzant who for a number of years was in the employ of his brother-in-law, the late George Scott, of this city. She was the mother of five children, four of whom with the husband, survive her. Her remains will be brought here for interment in the Union Cemetery. The funeral took place Monday evening from the Panhandle depot, on the arrival of No. 1 (She died May 11, 1879) --Stuebenville Weekly Gazette, Friday, May 16, 1879 This could be a gold mine for you, if it fits but it seems like the dates don't work for Dr. Thomas to be 68, George still at home (not i Allegheny City) and the daughter 43 years old. Well you can sort it out. Let me know if it works, Janice

Does anyone know what a "Car-Lader" might be? Granddad worked for the RR doing this job- I am sure it has to do with putting stuff into RR cars but any more info would be appreciated -----Original Message----- From: Karen Carlyle <kcarlyle@wave.home.com> To: OHJEFFER-L@rootsweb.com <OHJEFFER-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Saturday, December 12, 1998 7:13 PM Subject: Re: Questions >Sue, >According to "Jefferson County and her Townships", this is the history >of Toronto: > >"Toronto as first laid out was entirely within the boundaries of Knox >Township, occupying the southern corner.

Will the nice lady that has the marriage books please see if there are either UDELL or MERRILL marriages? Also, if anyone does Jefferson County research for a reasonable fee, please contact me privately within the next couple of days. Your help very much appreciated.

Sue, According to "Jefferson County and her Townships", this is the history of Toronto: "Toronto as first laid out was entirely within the boundaries of Knox Township, occupying the southern corner. Toronto was originally called Newburg, then Sloane's Station. John Deputy laid out the town of Newburg in 1818. Newburg was a noted steamboat landing and the Cleveland and Pittsburgh railroad established a station at a point called Sloane's Station after William Sloane who granted the railroad a right of way. The change was necessary because the railroad had a station named Newburg near Cleveland. It was incorporated in 1881 and the name was changed by a vote of the citizens. It was named Toronto, a title suggested by Thomas M. Daniels, a pioneer manufacturer. Toronto, Canada was the home of his business associate. The coproration limits were extended both north and south taking in the village of Fosterville of 112 acres and at the south Markle with 25 acres." [p.9] So it was indeed a steamboat landing!

any chance of getting a lookup on Leeper marriages? Thank you. Mary Szymanowski

I just subscribed to this List and notice the look-ups being done in some publications... I'd really appreciate it if the following name could be checked to see if it appears in Jefferson Co. George STIDGER (b) Jan 1818 Name may also appear as 'STIGER'. Need names of his parents. His pension records say he was born in Jefferson Co. OH. Thanks so much! Juanita Alloway

Janice, thanks so much for the info on the Coopers and Johnstons. I'll have to figure out what the Alexander Cooper-Elizabeth Vantilburgh marriage was...didn't know about that one. I would like the two articles you mentioned. Didn't know about them, and I actually don't have any info on George's father. You are wonderful to be doing all this. Thanks again. Jan

In the OGS Early Marriages of Jefferson County Ohio, is there a Catherine Beall and Hiram Pumphrey-would have married about 1830? Thanks in advance LInda
