I am seeking info on Shafer Vandivier family from northern Shelby County b. November 15, 1853 in an area known as "shinbone". I want to confirm his children as well as his parents. Alternate spelling vandiver, vandever, vandeveer His wife Malvina Baty also from that area b.March 2, 1861 in Auglaize in Washington twp. Regards, Don

MILLER & HILL: I just found out from a very distant third cousin that my LEFEVER were related to Miller and Hill (boatmen) and that my clan went to Iowa with them 1851 and that they were associated/related earlier in PA and Maryland. No rush re look up 1830 Shelby census for any Miller and any Hill. Thanks much, Morris LeFever

Hi all, My mailbox is messed up, so if you sent me a lookup request for the 1830 Shelby county census and haven't heard from me, please resend and I'll get to you right away. Tina

Thank you Don. Yes, I have Elizabeth on the 1870 census. Her husband, John, is listed below her name which I thought was unusual, until I finally found him on the 1880 census in Champaign Co. Adams, Twp. living with his sister, Sarah and her husband, William Green. He is listed as a widower and a disability called "Paralysis". I am figuring that he must have been wounded in the Civil War?! Anyway, I can never find ANY death records for my OLDEN's! John and Sarah are the sister and brother of my gr-grandfather Samuel OLDEN who is listed in the 1870 census also. His wife Mary HUGHEL OLDEN disappears off the census after 1870 also but no death notice?! Thank you for your help! Kathy Olden Berman

Hello, I can tell you this. In the 1870C Shelby Co. index she is still living. Listed : Elizabeth Olden in Orange Township, page 586a. Other Oldens listed also. If you want them let me no.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CYB.2ACE/258.291 Message Board Post: I am descended from Casper Yinger and his wife, Jane Boxwell. Their daughter, Jane Yinger, was born in Hampshire Co., WV, c. 1819. I believe she had a brother, John, who served in an Illinois Infantry Regt. during the Civil War. The family moved to Peoria Co., ILL, although I believe they had a connection with Shelby Co. Jane married George Coon and had the following children:- Walter, Emma, Winifred, Bathena and Hattie. Any information you could supply on their ancestry would be appreciated.

Found it! According to "The History of Shelby County".....Washington Township was originally named Grayson by Col. Jesse Wilson, in honor of the county in VA where he was born. The name was changed to Washington a short time later. I don't have the actual book, just abstracted info so I don't know which twps McLean came from.

Hi Sandi I have been in contact with Alvina Accuntius and she used to work for the telephone company. She is a really nice woman. She lives in Anna. I will check into Anita. Thank you Laurie

Laurie - Perhaps you have information that will confirm that I am "in the family". I'm a descendant of Jacob Diegel, who first settled in Lorain County, then moved to Auglaize County about 1860. Jacob's brother George had settled in Washington Township near New Knoxville much earlier (before 1840, I think). I have quite a lot of information about their families. I have seen compilations that show Catherine Diegel, the wife of Mathias Accuntius, was a sister of Jacob and George. The ages are about right - Jacob was born in 1798, Catherine about 1803, and George in 1811. All of them settled in Auglaize County. However, I have no information (other than compilations that I have been unable to verify) that would confirm that they were siblings. Any ideas?

In the '70's and early '80's, I worked w/Arlene and Anita Accunitus (sisters) at the telephone co. in Sidney. Arlene passed away in the early 80's, but her sister retired from the phone co. a few years later. I believe they lived in Sidney. Sandi McDonald

Has anyone heard of Grayson Twp. in Shelby Co.? Could McLean Twp. have gone by that name in 1830? Thanks, Terry

Terry, These are the only two bride's by the name of Elizabeth in the marriage records; neither is in the '20s though. SPEECE, Henry married CONROY, Elizabeth on 14 Apr 1833 (both residents of Green Township); married by Joseph Park, MG Books 1 & 2, p 85. SPEER, David married OLDEN, Elizabeth on 26 Dec 1865 by Elder John Goings Book 4, p 325. Good luck :) Lynne K.

I have two Kruse brothers, William and Robert marrying sisters in one branch of my family in Michigan in relatively recent times. William Kruse married Mary Louise Hargis in 1949 and Robert Kruse married her younger sister Jocelyn Hargis in 1952. Both marriages were in Michigan. Both sisters were born in Auglaize County. Their Brother, Charles Hargis, is involved in genealogy research. I don't know if this helps anyone. - Erin Nikitchyuk [email protected] >OHSHELBY-D Digest                                Volume 01 : Issue 213 > >Today's Topics: > #1 Re: [OHSHELBY] William/elizabeth/    ["BRUCE G SLOAN" <[email protected]] >From: <[email protected]> >To: <[email protected]> >Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2001 11:25 PM >Subject: [OHSHELBY] William/elizabeth/ son Henry KRUSE > > >> >> This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. >> >> Surnames: KRuse >> Classification: Query >> >> Message Board URL: >> >> http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CYB.2ACE/379 >> >> Message Board Post: >> >> Does anyone have info to share on Kruse family. >> Records show a Shelby co birth of Henry A.Kruse to William and Elizabeth >Poppe/Kruse. >> 10 oct 1878. >> Have been trying to locate any info on the William Kruse who played with >the John Philip sousa band in 1927.

Is there a marriage record in the 1820's for a man whose last name was Spece or Spere or something close to that who married a woman named Elizabeth? I would appreciate any help very much. Thanks, Terry Bava
