Charlotte - I posted this question to the list last week but had no response so I will ask you because you seem to be very aware of genealogical resources in your county. My ggg/uncle, Cornelius UDELL, wrote "The Condensed History of Jefferson, Ashtabula County, Ohio" in 1878. It was published by J. A. Howells and Company. I donated a copy of it to the Ashtabula Genealogical Society (or whatever they call themselves) ten or twelve years ago. (They were unaware of its existence). At that time I was told that the group was considering a reprint but have not heard if it was ever accomplished. My question is - did they do it and/or has it been indexed? These 116 pages contain an absolute wealth of genealogical information from the very earliest days of settlement until the date of publication. It contains several lists of names: physicians, attorneys, ministers , businessmen, farmers- when they came, where they came from, who they came with, who their children married and where they went. There are also dozens of sort of personal profiles, little stories - just a wonderful source. Although I am not ready to publicly state it, if someone can just tell me that there is an interest or a need, I intend to index it if it has not already been done, and do look-ups or just post the names to the list. If you could possibly check into this for me I would appreciate it very much. I will be up here in Montana until about the 15th of February then will be away for a few weeks. I wouldn't tackle the job until my return, shortly after the middle of March. Sincerely, Blanche *U*D*E*L*L* seeker Proud Sponsor of RootsWeb phl3851@montana.com
