Who raised Anthony Wayne CARREL (CARROLL)? Anthony Wayne CARREL was born somewhere in western Pennsylvania 20 February 1806 and raised in Central Ohio. Anthony's parents were Philip and Mary CARREL who with their nine children John (b. 1798), Mary, Margaret, Joseph, Anthony, Catherine, Henry, Jane and Philip Jr. (b. about 1813) were in Jefferson County, OH in 1813. The father Philip Carrel died December 1813 while in the service of the United States during the War of 1812, and his estate was administered in the Court of Common Pleas in Steubenville, OH in 1814. Ephraim CELLARS (SELLERS) was appointed administrator. When word of her husband's death reached Mary she released Anthony Wayne, age 7, into the custody of a neighbor or family acquaintance to raise as his own child. We do not know who this person was. The court later appointed Ephraim CELLARS as guardian of the four oldest remaining children in 1814. Other names mentioned in the court documents are John HENDERSON, John WOLF, Abraham CRABB and Jacob SHELL (SHULL) as bondsmen and appraisers. Young Anthony thus became separated from his family at an early age, and was raised in Central Ohio. Anthony's records start up again in 1826 in Granville, Licking Co. where he married Miss Belinda ROOT, a daughter of Noble Root and Damaris BARRETT. Anthony married 2nd Orpha G. (GREEN, BUSHNELL) LINNELL after 1865. He died 27 April 1882 in Olathe, Johnson Co., KS. I am seeking any information on the whereabouts in Pickaway County of Anthony Wayne Carroll (Carrel) between 1813 and 1826, between the ages of 7 and 20, and who raised him there. I am also seeking any information about what may have happened to his eight brothers and sisters and his mother Mary, and any descendants. Philip Carrel Jr. may have married a FELTENBERGER in Harrison Co, OH in 1832. Eric

We would like to invite you to re-visit our website, The POORHOUSE STORY (a clearinghouse for information about 19th century American poorhouses) at http://www.poorhousestory.com We just posted a picture postcard image of the PICKAWAY County Infirmary. Now we just wish some of you could provide us with further information about that poorhouse. DIRECTIONS: At the homepage (link above) click on POORHOUSES BY STATE, then on OHIO on the table of states, and then on PICKAWAY on the table of counties. You will see the entry at the top of the page. (NOTE: If you have visited the site recently, you may have to click on REFRESH on your browser to see the new information.) There are other pages on the site which may give you some interesting perspective on poorhouses. They are off the homepage and include: the HISTORY page and the LETTER TO GENEALOGISTS as well as FEATURED ARTICLES. There are great tips for researching poorhouse records for yourself on the RECORDS page; and you might want to subscribe to our (almost) monthly newletter (which you can do in the lower right corner of the homepage). The information on our site will only grow through the submissions of generous readers. If you would like to e-mail me ... please do so off-list because I cannot maintain subscriptions to as many lists as we post messages on. (You can use an e-mail link off one of our web pages.) We hope you enjoy the site! Thanks, Linda Crannell (aka=The Poorhouse Lady)

These are some marriage records taken from Rev. Roof's stuff so, because he covered both Ross and Pickaway, there is indeed over lapping. I've checked both sites and some of these are listed in the marriages and some aren't; so thought I would go ahead and send them, maybe they will make a connection for someone.

An immense throng of people gathered in the little village to attend the services. Members of the Red Men order, which the deceased was affiliated gathered from all over the state. Quite a number from this city were in attendance. Following a religious service at his home conducted by Rev.

Following the public funeral the remains were taken back to the home of the deceased where a short funeral service was conducted by Rev. Father Halpin and the remains were then removed to the Adelphi cemetery for interment. Ritualistic serviciis was conducted at the graveside by Judge Louis B. Houck for the Order of Red Men. Please note there is no date this appeared in the paper, but since it refers to the date of funeral, as March 8th, we can assume it was after that. -------------------------------------------- Mrs. Mary Greer Died at Home of Daughter of High Street Monday Morning.
