Thanks, Vera. I have a file on PEMBERTON, no Frank as of now, but will save this information. Carole

When I was going through microfilm of Ashland, OH Times Gazette I found this Obit. and thought it might be of interest to someone. Died 29 July, 1995 Frank B. Pemberton Jr. Services for Frank B.

Better yet, go to www.topozone.com for topographic maps of the area you want, complete with twp and sections numbered. Especially useful since you already have an older map.

Stacy, There used to be a town called Middletown but today it is just a wide spot in the road, so to speak. It is on SR 668 between Junction City and Maxville. The Friendship Methodist Church is there and maybe a dozen houses. That is all there is left of it today. It used to be a larger town with a store, etc. My husband has lived in this area all his life and is very familiar with the old towns. We are only about 10-12 miles from there. Hope this helps you.

This is an elusive little place. Here is info. about Jackson Twp., Middletown from the 1885 book. Middletown, situated in the southern part of Jackson township, was established in 1853-54, at the time work was in progress at the tunnel on the old Scioto & Hocking Valley Railroad. It is delightfully situated upon the ridge which separates the waters of Rush Creek from those of Monday Creek. The village has a post office, with mail every other day ; one church, two stores, several private residences, and about fifty inhabitants. However, from Howe's history another Middletown also existed (just a point of interest) Somerset in 1846.---Somerset, the county-seat, is forty-three miles easterly from Columbus, on the Macadamized road leading from Zanesville to Lancaster, from each of which it is eighteen miles, or midway, which circumstance gave it, when originally laid out, the name of Middletown. If you look at the map here: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~tfisher/fairfield_perry_history.htm Part V. Map of Perry Co., the one in Jackson Twp. is shown in Sect. 32. However if you look at the 1859 Plat here http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~tfisher/plat1859/jackson.htm it shows it in Sect. 33. I have to believe that the latter is correct. I base this on the fact that one of the churches there (according to the 1885 book) was once known as "Linton Church". The 1859 map shows several plats adjacent to the town site owned by "Linton's". So... given that information. Middletown would have existed at the present intersection of SR668 and TR335. A 1974 Plat map still shows some "small plots" at that intersection, but no current map that I have shows the town any longer. By the way, if you look at the 1859 map, a J. Kennedy owns property in Sect. 31, just west of Middletown and a school is indicated between that property and the town (in Sect. 32) Hope this helps. Tim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stacy R.

Here's a link to the 1859 Plat Map section of Jackson Township showing Middletown (section 33): http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~tfisher/plat1859/jackson.htm Can I get a 'current' map with the township sections shown on them from the county engineer's office?

I thought the Horn papers were those that are disputed and considered not reliable? Or do I have them mixed up with another group. That book on the Brethren church really sounds good. but its hard for some of us to get to Mansfield or Perry co too often. Just wondered about the Horn papers. Margaret C

Sure it isn't Middleton? Helen

Hi; Thanks for the map pointer. Yes, that's a Middletown, Ohio, but it is not the one I'm looking for. :) The one I'm looking for was located near the southern border of Jackson Township, Perry County, Ohio. It's not on any of the newer maps I can find, but I thought it might still exist as a tiny burg, or even just a crossroads with a church and a few houses. -Stacy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sturgill" <tsturg@bellsouth.net> To: <OHPERRY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, August 10, 2001 10:02 AM Subject: Re: [OHPERRY] Middletown, Ohio > http://maps.yahoo.com/py/maps.py?BFCat=&Pyt=Tmap&newFL=Use+Address+Below&add > r=&csz=middletown%2C+ohio&country=us&Get%A0Map=Get+Map > > copy the address above into your search engine box, or click on it . . . > Middletown, Ohio > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Stacy R.

Hi; Does anyone know whether Middletown, Ohio, still exists? It was near the southern border of Jackson Township, Perry County. I have located it on an 1850 map - it's north of Maxville and south of Crossenville. I tried to reconcile the 1850 map with a current road map, and took a little tour of the area (to no avail.)

> Hal...where can I get Horn papers, vol.111???? and do you know what year > map was made? These are most unusual maps and invaluable - William Horn constructed them by reading the original surveys and warrants when the Proprietors patened land to an individual. You may have a copy of thse maps - Horn published them township by township for Greene, Washington and Fayette county. If the metes and bounds of individual parcels of property sold by Penn to the settler are shown then you undoubtedly have a copy of Horn's work. He published the maps in a portfolio size book. Someone may have spliced all the townships together and copied them as one map. If they did they must have reduced them considerably. Each township in the original is about 16 x 20 inches. Ohio Historical at Columbus Ohio has them. UNC Davis at Chapel Hill, NC has them and will loan them out but they are now in temporary storage - I saw volume 1 and 2 today - I happened to get back into the storage stacks looking for the Pennsylvania Archives. Volume 3 is a Portfolio and is stored elsewhere. I bet LSD as filmed volume 3. I have a researcher out there who does work for me for a fee. She would get you a copy - but you would want to decide which township and just copy those you are interested in. And there is an index which helps. I must add that scholarly professional geneaologists are furious with William Horn. They accuse him of fraud and other major crimes in connection with the history told in the first two volumes. But every one agrees the maps are accurate. > To your knowledge, was there a Dunkard congregation in Dunkard, Greene > Co, PA?? > > I was told that a number of religious sects lived close together in a > communal lifestyle??? > > Is Dunkards Fort, to your knowledge...part of area that might have been > PA and later part of WV?? I believe it is in Monongalia Co, WV now. Barbara - I think you know about the Dunkards of Greene County than I do. My wife and I wrote a book in memory of her maternal grandmother, Myma, Anna Maude Bowser Orr(1877-1951). She was a Brethren. In telling her story we told the tale of the Jonathan Creek Brethren. Jonathan Creek flows out of the Big Swamp(today Buckeye Lake) across the northeast corner of Perry County and a bit of Muskingum County, Ohio, to enter the Muskingum River a mile or so below Zanesville. Like so many Brethren this group of farmers from Pennsylvania found rich soil along a medium size creek, which supplied them with water without the danger of the horrendous floods of the larger river valleys. I have come to love these ancestors of my wife. It is the industry, instinct for survival and the staunch moral fiber of people like this which built this grand and glorious country. Like many other descendants we have drifted from the faith of our father's. Look in the archives of the Brethren list or better yet ask Merle Rummel for the address to his web page - if you want more details of their early life. And also our book goes into considerable detail describing how the Brethren came to that part of Ohio. It can be seen at Perry County Library and the OGS library at Mansfield, Ohio. I thought our book was going to be on a Perry County web page but I haven't heard that it is. Good luck Barbara -- Hal

NO. My John Brown is the son of John Brown and the grandson of John Braun/Brown the immigrant. He was a brother to Peter Brown, Canal Winchester, the father of Levi Brown who went to Perry co after the death of his first wife Maria Crist in Pickaway co, OH. She is buried in Fairfield co with her family. So it seems the only member of my John Brown of Union co PA family that came to Perry co was Levi Brown. There were several other Brown families some of which were English in PA area where my John was from. There are John Browns in every county I have done research in. However there was a Matthew or Mathias Brown in Union/Northumberland co PA area very early. I don't know anything more about him though. Margaret Calvin >I am still lost in the BROWN family.
