I am so impressed at how active this list is, but I continue to search for any info on my ancestor(s) who were in Portsmouth, and environs, about 1850-1860. My Gr-Grandmother, Clara Belle POST, b. June 06, 1845, Greenup Co. Ky. dau. Of Abraham Cunningham Post and possibly, Mary Jane Post, attended a Methodist Church in Portsmouth as a child. She married Salathial Sparks, of West Union, Adams Co. Ohio, on June 16, 1864, in West Union, where they resided until her death in 1923. I have extensive info on my Sparks lineage, but my POST line has, forever, been my brick wall. Does anyone have any info on a POST family in Portsmouth in the 1850's?. THANKS!
