Oh Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Oh/Medina/330 Surname: Babyak, Gilchrist, Horwedel, Traxler, Zawerac ------------------------- I don't know if this fits, but here goes. Just recently I came upon a connection I seem to have to a Robert Carr in Medina Co. My gggg grandmother, Sarah Gilchrist, purchased 72 acres in Brunswick Twp. in September 1823. The deed states in part "by Sarah Gilchrist and Robert Corr [or Carr,I think it should be] late of Ireland in the county of Down and now residing in the township of Brunswick...in equal quantity..." The reason I think it should be Carr with an "a" is there is no mention of any other Corr in any census or records of Medina Co that I have seen. There is, however, a Robert Carr mentioned in a few places. Sarah was a widow from Co. Down with 6 children. Her husband,Eugene/Eoghain/Owen),was dead before she immigrated here. An old history said that she had been told by her brother that this was a great place to live. I have info that her maiden name was Clark, but it's undocumented. In the Pioneer History of Medina County 1881, there is a list of Treasurers of Medina Co. A Robert Carr is listed as : Robert Carr, Liverpool, 1852, 4 years. According to the other dates in the list, he served 1852-1856. Liverpool Twp is right next to Brunswick Twp. Sarah and a couple of her children owned land there also around the 1840-50's. I did see in the 1850's (I think it was about then) that the "Heirs of Robert Carr" owned some land in either Brunswick or Liverpool Twp. Think it could be the same man?
