Looking for the Jacob Snyder family of Medina. Wife Mary. Children: Gabriel, Alexander, David U., Mary L., Elizabeth M., Jacob A., and Henry V. In 1850, Jacob was 50 years old, Mary 35 and the children ranged from 15 years to 2 years. They are buried in a cemetary in Spencer Township, in Medina County but I have not been successful in finding any records. Does anyone recognize my ancestors? Barb Snyder

Posted on: Medina Co. Oh Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Oh/Medina/10528 Surname: TURNER ------------------------- I am searching for HENRY TURNER and WILLIAM TURNER, brothers who immigrated from England to Medina Co, Ohio abt 1870, and settled in Chatham and Lodi. Henry and his wife, Isabelle, lived in Lodi until their deaths and were buried in a Lodi cemetery abt 1920. William's wife was Laura. I would guess that all were buried in the same cemetery, as was the family of Henry's son, William H. Turner. I am interested in locating that cemetery and also any lineage information re: any of the above Turner family. Thank you for your help. Donna Edmondson ([email protected])

I'd like to get a copy of my husband's grandfather's death certificate. He died in Medina County, March 9, 1965. Do I send the 'Request for Certified Copy' form to the Ohio Department of Health or do I send something to Medina Probate Court? I'm just looking for an uncertified copy. Also, his obituary states that the coroner would rule on the cause of death. Are coroner's reports open records? Would I be able to get a copy of the report, and, if so, how would I get a copy? Sorry if that's too many questions in one mail! Cheryl _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
