Terry, Thanks. I'm not sure how much that helps either, but it is the correct family and adds one more tid bit of information. I just found an 1854 obit for Dr. Henry DeWolf of Butler, PA, brother of Dr. Joseph DeWolf of Ravenna. Henry moved from Ravenna to Butler, PA in 1818. Not sure who the S. Mott in the school list is. Could be either Sandford or Sylvester, one or both of whom could be brother to the Jackson Mott am searching for. Jackson Mott would only have been 3 in 1838. It seems the more tid bits I find the more questions I have. At least I now know that Joseph DeWolf was in Ravenna as early as 1816. And I know he was born in CT. I seem to be finding the outside pieces of the Mott puzzle. One of these days the inner pieces will begin to fit as well. Thanks again.
