The spelling of her father's name is shown as " John Eckilberry", born in Ohio; I'm trying to locate anyone who might have information about him and/or his family. This name could also be spelled as "Eckelberry"; I have no idea what part of Ohio he might have been born in, but his daughter and her husband, Isaac N. Edington lived in Licking Co. for a few years before moving on and settling in Fairfield Co., OH where they died and are buried in Fletcher Chapel Cemetery. Elisabeth was born abt. 1835 or 1837; her father should have been born about 20 years or so before her, so I'm looking at an approximate birth of 1815 or 1817 or earlier for her father, John Eckilberry (Eckelberry). Does this name "strike a cord" with anyone?" Elisabeth's mother's maiden name was: Margaret McClane, or Mc Clarre, also born in Ohio, probably in the same time span as her husband John (1815-1817). Elizabeth's parents may well have died in Licking Co. and that's how she came to meet and marry Isaac N. Edington in that area. Any information or ideas as to how to proceed to research this ancestor's family further will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
