My Great grandfather, Valentine Adolph, was a farmer but he also ran a ferry (boat) at the bottom of a long hill leading from his farm to the Muskingum River. Our family referred to this as the "Jane Kinney" hill. This road continued on to the original Salem Methodist Church where the family worshipped. If anyone has ancestors (my great grandmother was Leota Kinney (Adolph) who knew my ancestors please post any information you may have that would be helpful. Thank you. I am particularly interested in information regarding the ferry (boat) that Valentine Adolph, (known as Fritz--perhaps) ran. Thanks in advance. Sincerely, Karen Adolph, a great grand-daughter, (daughter of Marjorie Adolph--now deceased) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
