I support the idea of posting the family names we are working on, so here goes: Currently, I am working on the TAGG surname, Thomas C., James, William and Mary Ann all moved to Lawrence county circa 1840's Thomas C. married Eliza Morton, James married (1) Sarah McComas (2) Nancy Bee (3) Sarah Dillon, William married Eliza ?? and Mary Ann married Rev. James McComas Thomas, James, William, Mary Ann, Eliza, John H., Joseph and Lucy/Lucinda/Lucretia Tagg were the children of James Tagg and Rebecca HEIGHTON.  They emigrated from Kettering Northamptonshire England in 1836 settling in Portage County Ohio, where Rebecca's brother, Thomas Heighton had already settled with their family.  The elder James died in 1845.  Rebecca lived with various of her children until her death in 1868.  Eliza married Lewis V. Stauffer in Portage County in 1850 and died in 1852.  William took over his father's business of painting houses and married Eliza  ??  later moving to Lawrence county circa 1860's.  Lucy/Lucinda/Lucretia disappears from written records after 1838.  I have not been able to find a marriage or death record for her.  Thomas bought land in Lawrence County in 1842 and married Eliza Morton the same year.  I don't have the exact date that the younger James moved to Lawrence county.  I am descended through his first wife, Sarah MCCOMAS whom he married in 1848.  James served in the 91st Infantry during the Civil War.  He and William were twins.  Joseph moved to Memphis Tennessee and opened up a very successful pain and wall paper business. Mary Ann married Rev. James MCCOMAS (brother to Sarah??) and she died circa 1868-1869. Any cousins out there working on these lines?? Kathy Petras Ohio

Kathy, I will send you an invitation to join "MyFamily.com (McComas/Hensley).  There is a collection of McComas researchers along with research in the file cabinet.   ________________________________ From: Kathy Petras <kathyjeanp@yahoo.com> To: OHLAWREN@rootsweb.com Sent: Sun, December 20, 2009 8:05:14 PM Subject: [OHLAWREN] Family names...
