Nedra, The Morley Library in Painesville has an obituary index 1822 to date. John Weise/Wise is not listed, nor are any of the others you mentioned. I also checked the cemetery index for these names in Lake, Geauga, and Ashtabula counties -- not listed. They are not in the personal property tax list or in the local families file either. What do you have that tells you they were in Lake County?
