    3. Thank you. Would you have any idea where the old registration cards would be kept? Or would they have been destroyed as being useless? Or given to historical societies?

    2. Rex - I have HERSHEY, first cousins, twice removed, in Summit County. However, they were born in PA later than your dates and didn't show up in OH until late 1800s or early 1900s. If you have given names, I would be happy to exchange info with you. Jan Leigh Strange, CCHT, R.M.T. Ask me about hypnotherapy for enhanced self-esteem, pain management, self-healing, spiritual emergence, past life regression.

    3. Women's Suffrage was passed in the Wyoming Territory, Dec 10 1869. June 4, 1919, nationwide Women's was suffrage proposed by Congress. 19th Amendment to the US Constitution was ratified Aug 18, 1920, giving women the right to vote. "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the Unisted States or by any State on account of sex." Then the League of Women Voters was founded.

    3. Hello everyone, Shame on me, I've completely forgotten my voting history. When did voting registration come into effect? And would anyone know where such records from the 1920s-'30s be housed in Summit & Union counties? I'd love to find out if my BISHOP grandparents, Harold Lee Bishop & Thelma Gladys (Inskeep) Bishop were ever registered. If things go right, my husband and I are finally taking a months vacation, leaving in mid August until mid September, first traveling New England for (of course) more genealogy, then back to "home" in Ohio for more genealogy research.

    2. Hello, I recently heard that a relative of mine (step- great grandmother) moved into an orphanage and raised her 5 children in the orphanage while she worked there. Her husband had left and I guess that she didn't have many choices. Anyway, does anyone know of an orphanage that would have been operating during the 1910's in the Akron area?

    2. 1914 June 8 article in the Akron Beacon Journal there was a fight in Glendale cemetery and the caretakers were listed as William and Charles COLLINS at 304 Exchange St., I am looking for Mary COLLINS STRATTON DUNN's brother who was living in CT when his sister Mary died in 1948. Mary had a sister Gertrude Mrs. Harry GRAY. The COLLINS came originally from Monroe County, TN. And I wonder if there is any relationship to the COLLINS caretakers and Mary COLLINS. Thanks

    1. Re: [OHSUMMIT-L] ?Middlebury?
    2. A little aside note to the person who wrote about Middlebury and the clay, that I used to live in Vienna VA and Alexandria VA and worked in Ballston and Reston VA. And thanks for bringing the subject of Middlebury. As I found it very interesting. Does anyone know where the fannies Coal Hill was in Cuyahoga Falls, OH as there was coal mining there in 1820's and Henry Newberry owned part of Coal Hill.

    2. Akron did have great clay deposits and the largest was Springfield and Tallmadge Townships by the Little Cuyahoga. Firs discovered in Mogadore.

    1. Re: [OHSUMMIT-L] ?Middlebury?
    2. If anyone is interested in Middlebury Grismer's Akron and Summit County has information about Middlebury. Surprising for me I never knew about it until Akron Beacon Journal had an interesting article about it, though not a native I've been in and out of Akron for many years. Interestingly enough the book states for every inch Middlebury gained Akron gained a foot. So it dropped off the map. April 19, 1872 Akron annexed Middlebury and became the Sixth Ward. They were called Middlebury and never considered themselves East Akronites. There was a grist mill and it produced a better grade of corn meal and wheat flour than Hudson or Northampton, it had a saw mill, plant for carding wool and fulling cloth, a distillery.
