This question is a little "off the wall" but I really need the help! I am hoping someone on the list will read this mystery and be able to respond! Do you have Irish immigrants in your family line who settled in the Steubenville area anytime between 1845 and 1880? Particularly those who might have first lived as servants in the home of local lawyers? Possibly with the following surnames (especially the women in your lines): GREENWOOD, McCRORY, DELEHANTY, WILSON, MOOREHEAD or any others? I am looking for the WHY my g.g.grandfather is buried in Steubenville, OH. Joseph GREENWOOD emigrated 1845-48 from Ireland to Steubenville, Ohio, and lived there about 7 years, presumably connected with lawyers Thomas and David WILSON. Joseph moved to Iowa about 1855, were he married and lived for nearly 50 years. His wife, and three children died prior to him and are buried near their home, yet the choice was made to return his body to Steubenville for burial with two others: Hugh GREENWOOD and Lillie (McCRORY) Taylor. Hugh and Lillie were also Irish immigrants. Lillie McCrory, an Irish immigrant, lived in the same household as Lawyer Wm. LLOYD and his family. Later on, about 1880, another family of GREENWOOD emigrated to Steubenville (in connection with lawyers) from Ireland, then moved on after a few years to ND. Joseph GREENWOOD, in the last three years of his life, returned for a few visits to Steubenville, and ended up being buried there. WHY? Presumably he had relatives there, but as near as I can tell - not with the male's surname of GREENWOOD. Hugh GREENWOOD's body was also returned from "out of state" for burial. Lillie (McCRORY) TAYLOR spent her married life in Steubenville. I know there must be relatives who settled there, but I am at a loss on how to find them - particularly since they may have been female and married into another surname. If any of this sounds familiar, or you have suggestions, I would be grateful for your help. Thank-you for reading to the end of this e-mail. Karla [email protected]
