The reference is found in the book Pioneer period and pioneer people of Fairfield County, Ohio, on page 396. I found this online at Ancestry, but perhaps you could locate a copy through a local library if you don't have an account with Ancestry. I can't guaranty the connection, but the name Benoni is unusual and the location is right. The text says that Lewis Black of Sandusky Soldier's Home is their son. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2007 10:51 PM Subject: Re: [OHPERRY] Mary Jane Black b 1853 d 1854 daughter of HenryBlack-Susanna C...

Unfortunately what he gave me included very few sources for the information he had gathered. I have managed to trace the family forward to verify that the list of children he gave me is valid (though I'm lacking sources for the birthdates he provided) with the exception of Mary Jane who lived for such a short time. I'm posting info on all the family as I have it in case there are others researching this family who might find the information useful, and hoping someone can tell me if there are birth records available for the time frame indicated and if so how I could go about getting access to those records. This is what I have on the family make-up: Henry Black b abt 1809, PA, d 29 Jan 1879, Ada, Hardin, OH; m 5 June 1834, Monday Creek Twp, Perry, OH, Susanna Carey/Cary, b abt 1815, Sussex Co, DE, d 21 June 1892, Ada, Hadin, OH.
