    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Roberts, Criner, Ragor Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/QZB.2ACI/3541.1 Message Board Post: I found Oliver E. Roberts' gravesite! It is in the Greenwood Cemetery in Zanesville. He died 30 Mar 1863 and was the age 31 yrs. Does anyone know how to get a death certificate from that long ago? Also, is there anyone that volunteers to take pictures at that cemetery? I'd love to have a picture of his grave emailed to me. He is my ggggrandfather. My ggggrandmother's aunt Cynthia Ann Ragor Criner, and her cousin Ettie Criner are also buried there. Thank you so much for your help.

Surnames: James Walton Abbot Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/QZB.2ACI/3559.2.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: This is absolutely wonderful news! Thank you so much. You've solved multiple mysteries for me with this awesome find, including the origins of this "Walton" name. This was given as the middle name to a daughter of George and Martha James, Rebecca Walton James (b. 4 AUG 1836 in Zanesville, OH), but up until now I've been unable to determine where this name came from, the Abbot or the James side of the family. It's origins are very obvious now (both names) where "Rebecca Walton" came from now that you've found these James family graves there in Zanesville: she was named after her paternal grandmother. Thanks again. You really made my day! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
