----- Original Message ----- From: r_chafin@bellsouth.net To:OHMEDINA list Sent: Saturday, June 18, 2005 1:53 AM Subject: notice I would like to announce that my father Henry A.Soeder died on May 26,2005 in his sleep. He was 95 years old. I sat with him and held his hand as he took his last breath. I tried hard to find his other siblings for him but was unable to locate them. I requested some re-paid info two years ago from the archives in Cleveland and never received it. I emailed them numerous times and they said they would put a rush on it but I never heard a word. I will still try to find them even though he is dead. I hope none of you ever have the problems I have had with the archives. I would like to thank the people on the list for their help with look ups and support and encouragement. God Bless, Cindy

Surnames: STANLEY, SCOTT, HICKOX, PRENTICE, CATLIN, GARRETT Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/HZB.2ACI/930 Message Board Post: In my grandfather's memoirs, he states: “Abigail Stanley, daughter of Joseph Stanley, Sr., was born in August, 1790, in Connecticut; married James Scott in Rochester, N.Y.; they had one child, Louisa. Abigail came with her sister, Joanna Stanley Garrett, to what was then called the far west, Medina, Ohio. Their aged mother went with them, but soon died and lies sleeping in the old cemetery, with no marker, but near St. Paul's Church.” Did St. Paul’s church exist back in the 1830’s? Is there a cemetery nearby? Are there any cemetery records? The surnames I’m looking for are Stanley, Scott, Hickox, Prentice and Catlin. Thanks! Claudia Breland ccbreland@comcast.net

I had Gecsey family that lived in Ohio but not exactly positive on the location.I want to say Cleveland or lower portion of Ohio. Would love to share info with you especially if it matches with your names. My Ggreat-parents and a Grand-Aunt lived in Ohio and I believe a Grand-Uncle.

The early marrige records, in Cuyahoga County, contain only the most basic of information. For example, Vol. 37, page 159 shows only the date that the individuals were married, the names of the individuals themselves and who performed the marriage. This particular entry is for the 13th of February, 1893. 'signed' Brian F. Cap __________________________________________________________________ Switch to Netscape Internet Service.
