Dear Listers, A lovely person who's helped me so much in trying to locate my missing maternal grandfather sent me a couple of xeroxed news clippings that caught a few notices in the copying process. So instead of letting these little tidbits go to waste, I'm going transcribe them for my lists. Maybe they will help someone. Jacquie I've tried to make sure the transcriptions are perfect. - ------------------------------- CANAAN INSTITUTE IS WELL ATTENDED The farmers institute which was held at Canaan school building Monday and Tuesday was well attended and every feature was a success. The exhibits were larger than last year. The Advocate goes to press too soon for a complete report. It will appear next week. ********* MRS. LURA SHIVELY Mrs. Lura Shively died Sunday at University hospital in childbirth. She was twenty-four years of age is survived by her husband, Guy SHIVELY and three children. The body was sent to Point Pleasant, W. Va. by J.D. Ferguson, undertaker. ********* KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS Last week was surely a full one for the local lodge Knights of Pythias and the members thereof. On Thursday night was installation of officers for the ensuing term by L.H.ROUSE, D.G.C., with Dr.C.H.LUCAS acting as M.A. The following is the roster of officers which will guide Pythian destinies for the new term: Marion BOYER, C.C.; F.L.TAYLOR, V.C.; G.E.HERRIOTT, Prelate; Wm.BARNETSON, M.A.; Guy P.URTON, ?.G; Clyde H. RINGS, O.G.; W.P.VIGOR, K.R.&S.; Howard C. BLACK, M.F.; W.G.MITCHELL, M.E.; J.W.CUNNINGHAM, M.W., and C.H.LUCAS, Trustee. Mayor LEPBERT became a full fledged Knight. On Friday night the Columbus Dokkies gave their entertainment which was a varied, an interesting and an entertaining one; they would be very welcome to come again. The night was bad but Castle hall was filled to capacity. The pot-luck supper was veritable banquet. A full account of the evening's proceedings is found elsewhere in this issue of The Advocate. On Saturday night was the first game of basket ball played at home between a Columbus Pythian team and the home lodge team and resulted in a victory for the local team; a fuller account is also elsewhere in this issue of the paper. Lodge at 7 o'clock; be on time and bring in that petition. WOMAN'S CLUB The January meeting of the Woman's club was held in the Plain City club rooms on January 11. The subject for discussion was "Travel Talks." Mrs. Alice K. O'HARRA was the leader and gave a review of "Mark Twain's Travel in the Holyland and Egypt." Mrs. Evalyn C. PARKER told of her travels thru the Southern states and Cuba. Mrs. Jennie C. RICKARD read a description of the Appalachian trail now under construction from Maine to Georgia. After numerous interesting current events the meeting adjourned to meet January 25. ********* REVIVAL AT LONG'S CHAPEL Revival services at Long's Chapel are now going on. If you want Old Time Salvation, come. Come. Everybody is welcome. *********Another article too big to transcribe; however, this article mentions a little boy, JACKIE WISEMAN. "COLUMBUS DOKKIES GIVE PROGRAM HERE, Pot Luck Supper Served to Visitors, Pythians and Families" Quote: "Probably the most popular entertainment of the evening was JACKIE WISEMAN, a youngster of about three or four years who sang his songs like a veteran entertainer. His voice was strong for one of his age and his enunciation for one so young was especially fine."

RE: << According to a copy of a death certificate for a relative who passed away in Madison County on January 27, 1909, he resided at the County Infirmary. Does anyone have information on this infirmary and could you provide me with that information? ------ Charlene >> Charlene, According to: History of Madison County, Ohio, Chester E. Bryan, Supervising Editor, 1915, B.F. Bowen & Co., Inc. The "first inmates were admitted" on July 31, 1866. It was still in existence as of the book's 1915 publishing date. I'm not sure if it's still open. In 1915, it was located ---- "about three and one-half miles southwest of London, in Union township, and is situated between the Jefferson, South Charleston, and Xenia turnpike and the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, & St. Louis railroad." The book also refers to the infirmary as the "county farm". Hope this helps! Sherry
James O'Hara (spelled O'Harrow) and his wife (Bridget) and two children and and Bridget's brother, Thomas Noon, are listed in the 1860 census for Madison County, Bowling Green Township. On the census information it appears that their son, Samuel (?) is one year old and appears to have been born in Virginia. Their daughter, Ann, is two and was born in Ohio. Would anyone know why someone would have gone to Viriginia to live perhaps for a year and then returned to Ohio during that time period.. Perhaps, I am assuming that the notation for the son's birth is Virginia, it is difficult to determine the exact script. It looks like it could be Virginia I would appreciate any help with this. Thanks. Charlene
>From about 1910 to about 1921 he lived lived and worked in Summit County. From about 1918? to about late 1921 he worked as a traveling salesman for the Jewel Tea Company. He was in Union County in 1922 where he married - and he may have started working as a "garageman" around this time. From 1923 to 1926 his occupation was a "garageman" while he worked either in the Madison or Union counties of the village of Plain City. Any mention of Harold Bishop disappears after March 1926. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Jacquie (California) "[email protected]" "[email protected]"
My great-grandparents, Washington Linson and Sarah McBride, were married August 14, 1845 in London, Madison County, OH. I have been able to trace the Linson clan back many generations but I've still unable to determine who Sarah McBride's parents were? I'd like to believe that Robert McBride was her father, the only McBride in Madison County at the time period. Can anyone help? I'd love to share any family data! Marge Freitag

Would there have been an "Old Folks Home" in Madison County in 1909? My relative's death certificate lists him as a resident of the "County Infirmary" at the time of his death on January 27, 1909 and his death as a result of "old age had failed gradually for one year." Might there have been an "infirmary" at the old folks home? Charlene
