I recognized many of the names as I live in Paris Township and several of those listed are buried in Hawley our township cemetery, Hawley Cemetery. I also live on Min Young Road which connects to Holcomb road named after those families. I have the cemetery index listing for Paris if you're interested in data from the tombstones and am willing to photograph the stones if you would like digital pictures e-mailed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tali Barbosa" <ttbarbosa@attbi.com> To: <OHPORTAG-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2003 10:59 PM Subject: [OHPort'ge] Obit Look-ups request > Gerald, you certainly have stirred some life into this list with your offer > to look for obituaries in the index.

Bonita, How exciting to hear from someone who lives in Paris Township. I had no idea about all of the roads baring the original family names. I appreciate the offer for look-ups in the Paris and Charlestown cemetery book but I do own the book myself. Some of the people that I have listed are in the cemetery book and that is why I know they died within the timeframe that "Jerry's" index covers. I am hoping for a bit more information beyond date of death from the obituary extracts. I wonder if any of the original papers from which the obituaries were extracted are still extant? As to photographs of the stones, I may take you up on that one of these days. I have some but not all of those of interest. I will have to sit down and sort out what I am missing. I suppose you will need to wait until spring, as I imagine they are covered with snow at this time.
