I know almost nothing about the Foxes... I only have this obit: Bourbon Mirror Thursday, Nov 10 1887 Page 3 Mrs. Mary Fox, an aunt of Mrs. Mary Shively and great aunt of Mrs. John S. Baxter and Mrs. Samuel Corl, died on the 4th inst., at the residence of her son, Mr. Jacob Fox, in Van Wert, OH. Had she lived until the 12th of December next she would have been 95 years of age. Her son writes that the bones in her limbs had become so decayed that they broke in lifting her. Can anyone tell me what county contained Van Wert? It appears that my Corls, the Orins, and the Foxes may have followed the same paths, from PA to OH, maybe back to PA, and then on into IN.

Carol, Interested in Fox information... not related, but Foxes seemed to have been family friends of Orins and Corls. Many relatives married across. Can you tell me if you see any Orins or Corls in your records? Also, what was the migration of Foxes? When did they leave PA to come to OH? Did they return to PA or have relatives who remained in PA? When did they go to Marshall Co, IN? Mary Fox was a great aunt to a Mary Shively who married Samuel Corl...her obit appeared in Marshall co. Kathi Browne

Calling all Mott searchers. Just got this from a fellow OHPORTAG searcher. Thought it might be of interest to other Mott searchers. Think this is the line I am working on but can't find the connection Jackson Mott has to this line. It is possible he is a son or nephew. Jackson was born in 1835, had at least 3 daughters, Sarah, Elda and Minnie and at least on son Darius Wm. Mott. < ISAAC MOTT, farmer, P.O. Deerfield, one of the oldest native residents, was born in Deerfield Township, this county, May 10, 1812. His grandfather, Ezekiel Mott, a soldier in the Revolutionary war, was among the pilgrims of 1807 to Deerfield Township, where he cleared a farm and lived to the close of his life. Elijah Mott (father of our subject) was born during the Revolutionary war, and was married to Miss Annie Rose, who bore him ten children, of whom only Sylvester and Isaac survive. The subject of this sketch was married, in Deerfield Township, this county, April 17, 1834, to Miss Elizabeth Jobes, born June 25, 1810. Their living children are Cornelius, married to Miss Carson (have one child - Ada); Cornelia, married to Samuel Mell (their children are Isaac, Frank and Minnie). In 1844 Mr. Mott settled on his present farm consisting of 150 acres, where he has since made his home. He is a member of the United Brethren Church. Politically is a stanch Republican. Ellen

Hi, I am looking for information on the family of William and Barbara LEONARD of Portage County, Ohio in the early to mid 1800s. They had a son Uriah LEONARD, who married Sarah Jane REEDER 1/14/1856. Daughters of William and Barbara LEONARD were Mary Ann LEONARD (m. George REEDER), Sarah June LEONARD (m. George H. RAPP), Lydia S LEONARD who died 11/15/1861 age 13, and Elizabeth LEONARD who died on 11/13/1861 age 15. The two who died young are buried in Atwater Cemetary in Ohio along with a brother Mathias LEONARD (m. Corcelia BEAN) who died 3/12/1866 age 24, and their father William LEONARD who died 10/15/1868 age 62. Do not know where Barbara Leonard died or is buried. The 1850 Portage county census states William LEONARD was age 43 (b. 1807 in PA) and Barbara age 44 (b. 1806 in PA). Does anyone have the PA connection for these two?? Also, there are many REEDERS in the county at the 1850 census. Does anyone have access to the 1850 census and would be willing to do a look up? I would love to see if any of these Reeder families had the young Sarah Jane REEDER at about age 16 in the household. Were Sarah Jane REEDER and George REEDER siblings? I have been told she came from a family of ten. Sarah Jane REEDER was the future bride of Uriah LEONARD. Where did the Reeders live before Ohio? Would anyone have or would be willing to locate a will or letters of administration for William LEONARD who died 10/15/1868 and is buried at Atwater Cemetery?? Or of the REEDERs? Thank you very much for any help or information you might have Rick
