Posted on: Medina Co. Oh Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Oh/Medina/415 Surname: Hower, Rutter ------------------------- Do you have any information on John Rutter and Celinda Hower Rutter of Ohio? Their daughter Gertrude Rutter was born on June 17, They would have married in the mid to late 1800s. They had a daughter named Gertrude, born June 17, 1883, so they were probably married about 1860ish.

Hello list, I usually answer questions concerning the SIEGFRIRD family, but it's apparent I didn't look in the right place to find the death date and burial place of Joshua Siegfried. Maybe someone reading this can help. Here's what I have on Joshua: Joshua SIEGFRIED, b. 24 Dec 1791 in Bushkill Township, Northanpton County the son of Isaac Siegfried and Anna Maria Hochstresser (Isaac was the son of Joseph who was the son of Johannes SIEGFRIED of Maxatawny -now in Berks County). Joshua Married Anna Marie Kunkler and had 7 children. In the 1840 US Census the family is living in Bushkill Twp., Northampton Co. None of them are listed in the 1850 US Census for Bushkill Twp. I've Checked cemetery records and obits in Northampton, Lehigh, Berks and Centre Counties --- NO Joshua. I've checked the 1850 US Census for the state of Pennsylvania using all the variant spellings of Siegfried -- NO Joshua. I found Joshua's children in the Philipsburg area of Centre County -- NO Joshua. Some of his children moved from Centre Co., Pa. to Ohio. One son, Samuel F. SIEGFRIED(b.1829), moved to Medina County, Ohio and was married and had four minor children when he enrolled in the Union Army on 12 Aug 1862. He was mustered into service on 2 Sep 1862 and died of "Camp Fever" on 15 Feb 1863. His Military Pension record shows his mother (Joshua's wife) living in Medina County and later Wayne County, Ohio --- but no Joshua. I have two death dates for Joshua: 1859 and 11 Aug 1875. The 1859 date is on an orginal hand written manuscript that was handed down from Joshua's grandson, John Washington Siegfried (b. 1851). The other date, 11 Aug 1875 was given to me by "genealogist" A, who said he got the information from B. When I phoned B, he got it from C. When I contacted C, guess where they got the 1875 death date. You guessed it --- from A. I think the 1859 death date is the one I want, but it sure would be nice to confirm it and also locate Joshua's burial site. Looking forward to an overwhelming response to this inquiry. :-) Leon F. Borst Chester County, Pa.

Posted on: Medina Co. Oh Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Oh/Medina/413 Surname: ------------------------- First I checked my tombstone bood for your Henry A. Caswell. I did not find him, but but did fine these on page 381, in Litchfield Burial Park, Litchfield Twp. CASWELL, Harriet d/o Charles & Sarah, Sept. 9, 1861 - 10y3m " , Amanda, July 2, 1872 " , Charles, May 26, 1859 " , Sarah A., w/o Charles Feb. 19, 1877 - 63y6m And listed right next to them are two people with a quite similar surname, and wondered if they might part of the same family. COUSWELL, Harriet P. w/o David July 15, 1841 - 24y " , Charles son, July 25?, 1872 - 3 weeks Then I checked the name Hubbard in the index and was surprised to find the following on Page 340 in Spring Grove Cmty, Medina City & Co. HUBBARD, Melva J., his wife, 1858 - 1923 " , Henry A., 1855 - 1929 Could these be your people using the name of HUBBARD rather than CASWELL??? a puzzle!!! You might want to check to see if they are among the Ohio Death Records, as both seem to have died within the years that have been posted online. In the same cemetery on page 327 are: HUBBARD, Eli, Jan.23, 1829 - April 16, 1894 " ' Emily C., Sept. 14, 1834 - June 15, 1904 Sorry if this had only served to confuse you!! Jean Best

If you're having difficulty getting "across the pond" re ancestors buried at St. Martin's Catholic Church in Valley City (Formerly Liverpool, you might want to check out the FHL records for Riedseltz, Wissembourg, Bas Rhin, France. my new Cousn Jeff Schaeffer, not a member of this list, writes I"'ve viewed are in the Bas-Rhin area of France in the town of Riedseltz. There you will find names such as Biehn, Linck, Kolb and Bohn. Many people from this town are buried at St Martins.

To: Jean Best [email protected] I would appreciate your looking in the Tombstone Book you have for Medina Co., OH to see if you can find mention of my sixth ggmother's burial site. Her name was MARY B. LANDERS. She was alive in 1832 and listed in The Medina County History Book as being a forming member of a Congregational Church in York Township. To other readers of this list: Mary B. Landers had two daughters who married into the Holcomb and Rowe families in CT, prior to their move to Medina County, where they may have resided for the remainder of their lives. However, her son, Asaph, and his family, also listed in the forming of the church, moved to Benton Twp., Eaton Co., MI about 1842 an remained there until at lease 1865 when Asaph disappeared from records at that location. If anyone has knowledge of this family, I would appreciate hearing from them. Thank you for your assistance, Madeline M. Fiske [email protected]
