Looking for info on Jacob SNYDER abt. bef. 1850. A friend of mine in VA has the Carter museum and she has a quilt that has embroidered on it " JACOB SNYDER 1849 STARK COUNTY OHIO". She was told he made the quilt, but I wonder if someone made it in his memory as I did locate a Jacob SNYDER that died in 1849. Does this ring any bells with anyone? Much Appreciated, Birdy 910gale@msn.com

Cemetery unearths war history REVOLUTIONARY WAR VET. The burial marker for Revolutionary War veteran John Reese can be found in a forgotten little graveyard at the southeast corner of Louisville Road and Broadway Avenue SE. Reese helped found a church near the site in the summer of 1833 and died on Dec. 4 of that year. Repository / Stan Myers By JAN H. KENNEDY Repository staff writer NIMISHILLEN TWP. — History and a bit of mystery rest in a tiny graveyard on the southeast corner of Broadway Avenue and Route 153. The cemetery includes the gravesites of a Revolutionary War veteran, six Civil War soldiers and a unknown veteran of the “World War.” In the summer of 1833, John Reese, who served in the Revolutionary War, and several other men founded the Fairhope Evangelical Church, said the decendant church’s pastor, the Rev. Scott Hayward. When Reese died on Dec. 24, 1833, he was the first to be buried in the church cemetery. According to information in Volume 2 of “Cemetery Inscriptions: Stark County, Ohio,” 110 people were buried there; all but four before the 20th century. Two large stones surrounded by greenery in the center of the graveyard belong to David and George Reese; their markers say they served in the Civil War. John Reese’s grave is about 6 feet to the north, a smaller, black stone leaning forward. It remains readable, perhaps because the lean protects the face from direct wind, rain and sun. In addition to the three Reeses, five others have metal markers next to their gravestones denoting military service, four from the Civil War. The eighth is an enigma. It has a round marker with a U.S. in the center, around which is written “World War Veteran.” Erosion has stolen much information from the stone, but a World War I veteran couldn’t have been buried until at least 1917. But in “Cemetery Inscriptions,” no burials were recorded after 1905 until 1941, when a woman was buried in the cemetery. She was the last interred there. The cemetery was dedicated by the church in 1933 on the 100th anniversary of the church’s founding. Next to the church was a house where the pastor lived. In 1943, the church burned down, and with it went all of the cemetery’s records, Hayward said. A new church was built a little east of the old church, and the church’s name changed to Fairhope Evangelical United Brethren Church. It became Fairhope United Methodist Church in 1968. In 1963, the parsonage and cemetery were sold to James B. and Nellie L. Miller, who lived in the house until they sold it in 1973 to Jack E. and Emma L. Vick of Louisville. The Vicks lived in the house until the early 1990s; it stood unoccupied for a couple of years until the Vicks sold the lot with the house to their son. He razed the old house and put up a new one. Jack and Emma Vick continue to own the cemetery. “We didn’t buy it because of the cemetery, just for the house,” Jack Vick said. “Right now I don’t have any idea what I’ll do with it. Maybe deed it to my son so he can build a garage on the corner section. I think there’s room there for a garage.” Although the Vicks had no connection to the cemetery, it was Jack’s aunt, Hazel Brown Murphy, who provided what information is known today about the cemetery. She led a group from the Canton Genealogy Society in categorizing all of the Stark County cemeteries in 1982, finishing in 1986. The seven volumes are at the Stark County District Library. “When the suggestion was made to take down all the information on every gravestone in the county, the genealogy society said it was too big a job,” said Shirley Keener of Lake Township, a niece of Hazel Brown Murphy. “That was the wrong thing to say to Hazel. I don’t know that she’d have got involved if they hadn’t told her it couldn’t be done.” Only about 50 of the gravestones remain, and it is possible someone moved some of the markers over the years. But the marker by Reese’s grave is accurate, as is another in the front row. The stone says “Unknown U.S. Soldier,” and has a GAR marker by it, denoting the Grand Army of the Republic, an association of Union Army veterans of the Civil War. Nearly a third of the remaining readable gravestones have the name Lesh on them. Other names include Chenot, Ringer, Stambaugh, Tombaugh, Henninger and Conrad. You can reach Jan H. Kennedy at 580-8325 or e-mail:

Stephanie (King) Costa I too am researching "King" but am at a loss since I know very, very little about them. My Son's name is Edward King, his father was Paul A. King b: 1935 and his father was a foster child who lived with a King family, (I don't know where ). So he legally changed his name to Charles King. A family story says his original name was Foreaker, but I don't know how true it is. Both Charles and Paul liked women and therefore had quite a few children, that we are still finding out about. Both men lived mostly in Ohio and W.Va. When Charles got older, he lived mostly in the Texas, Arizona and New Mexico area. If you think any of this info. connects with your King family, Please let me know. Mary

Jim, if you are subscribing to Family Treemakers Genealogy Library.com I found this URL http://www.familytreemaker.com/_glc_/5186/index.html which is an extensive genealogy on the Jacquett family. I couldn't find a Delphine and sometimes the spelling on these French names may or may not be in the right lines. In this work, I found Jacquett spelled several different ways.

Looking for anyone researching the Haffner/Hoffner/Hafner name or Simon's. I'm having troubles especially with the Haffner's. My gg grandfather is Joseph Haffner who was married to Rosana Magdalina Angele. His dates are Nov 1841? - Nov 14, 1884. They lived most of their lives in Massillon, and passed away in Massillon. Their children are: Anna Catherine Haffner Oliver June 8,1868-Nov 14,1916. Joseph Edward Haffner Nov 14, 1869- ? Magdaline or Lena Haffner/Howard/Spencer/Williams Jan 29,1876- ? Rosina Sarah Haffner Simon July 11, 1878-Apr 13, 1942. Emma Mathilde Haffner Seaman Feb 18, 1883-Jan 15, 1975. I have also found a possible brother to Joseph with the name George Haffner. His dates are 1851-Aug? 1890. He was married to A Madeline, and had at least one daughter named Mary in 1880. I found Madeline in the 1900 census remarried to a possible Kolm. It's very hard to read the surname. If anyone has any connection to any of these names, even the Oliver, Seaman, Williams, Spencer, Howard & Simon, please contact me. Iam also related to the Hoffner's through Henry Hoffner and Mary Simon on another side. Thank you, Diane
