    3. I'm sorry but I can't find that info...this place is a MESS! You'll have to do your own search via the internet. It would poabably be listed as The Ohio Historic Village...ask for the Library/genealogy. There is a web site I remember, and some searchable records, but, as I recall, the people I looked for in the records weren't there, and I know them to be on the records, and have documentation for it...so, don't assume that they are not listed just because these online records say they're not. I always put a few knowns through any of these records to sort of test for acuracy. I wouldn't count on getting anything much done by mail....and certainly not the newspapers...they are on film and I'm sure no one is going to wade through those for you.
