They migrated west landing in Steubenville, OH and there they settled in Cross Creek Twp. Christopher and Sarah are my 4th great grandparents. They had 11 or 12 children, with some or all being born in Ohio. The children of Christopher and Sarah migrated further west in to Holmes, Wayne, Summit and other counties in that area. Eventually some of the family migrated to Michigan. I am looking for information on Christopher and Sarah and in particular Christophers parents and siblings. Our information stops with Christopher. This August, the last Sunday, the Lance family will gather in Wooster, OH for the 100th reunion of gatherings of descendants of Christopher and Sarah. If you know anyone that would be interested, please have them get in touch with thru private e-mail at margral5@aol.com. If there is anyone willing to do any lookups in this area for Christopher and Sarah and their family, I will gladly reimburse them their expenses. This family has been documented and recorded with great love and detail. How I would love to present further information on Christopher at the 100th reunion. Please help me. Sincerely, Margaret Cheney Elyria, OH In Weygandt's Tombstone book on Page 41, "Two Ridge Cemetery, Island Creek Township, Jefferson County, Ohio is the following: LANCE, Peter 1822 - Age 47 Christopher 1824 - Age 75 I have copied this as it appears in the book - I assume that the age shown at death should be subtracted from the date and thus Christopher above would have been born ca. 1849. These are the only LANCE names in this book. Helen Weals - weals@ridgecrest.ca.us
