The email I sent earlier this morning should read that Charles W. LUCAS was born in OH, 1866, not 1966. It has been one of those days! Thanks, Joyce

Hi List, Someone on our list said to go to the VIEW menu to make the type larger. I did that and it is great, but now when I print any e-mail message, it also comes out with big type even though I have changed the VIEW selection back to medium. If you have a suggestion, please write to me directly. Thank you Jean in CA

Hello, I just discovered on the 1920 Summit County, OH. Census, that my paternal great-grandparents were divorced. I found Lottie, in Akron, now I need to locate her ex-hubby, Charles W. LUCAS b. 1966 in OH (exact location unknown). They were married and living in Meigs County in 1900. Does anyone have access to the 1910/1920 census index for Summit County? I would really appreciate a look-up to see if my Charles W. (maybe Walter) LUCAS is listed there. Thanks so much Joyce LUCAS DEVER skipdever@earthlink.net

When the certificate I had sent for was not her figured someone else may be in need of it so I posted it to the county where the death took place. The death certificate has the mother's surname as CRAMER. Sorry for the confusion. Debbie

Hi, Janie, Does your father remember any members of the Lange or Kutz families? My grandmother was Emma Lange, daughter of Wilhelm and Henriette (Kutz) Lange. My grandmother was baptized at Zion Lutheran in 1888 and transferred her membership to Concordia Lutheran in 1913, at the time of her marriage. Other relatives had the surnames Koehn, Garske, and Schellin. I know next to nothing about my grandmother’s family and would appreciate any information he could share. Thanks!

I think the date would be @1925. Amazingly, he remembers the following names: Elizabeth Sterner, Elizabeth Yeckel, Helen Kroeger, Emily Bishop, Ellen (?) Drew, Ruth Groncy, Helen Middlestedt (sp?), Mabel ?, Johnny Palmer, boy (Bill) Lang, Elmer Bogrin, and Johnny Weigand. He remembers that Johnny Weigand married Ruth Groncy. The two pastors pictured are Pastor Noak and Pastor Spiegel. I also have confirmation class pictures for my aunt and uncle, which would have been several years earlier. When I figure that out, I will post that also. If you are related to any of these dudes or dudettes, please let me know and I will send you a copy of the photo.

Hello, I am doing research on diners/lunch wagons. My research has brought me to Silver Creek, NY(Ward & Dickinson dining car co) which in turn has brought me to focus on Ohio. They sent many of their diners to Ohio. Some Diner builders in Ohio: Galion dining car co. of Galion, OH and the (Earl Richardson)Rich dining car co. of Dayton, OH, both of these Ohio companies were probably short lived ventures in the 1920's. What I am looking for is any information on past diners in Ohio or these companies(Maybe your relatives worked at/owned these diners or companies) and also, leads on any diners that existed(past or present) in Ohio, as I am only aware of about 10-15 diners in the state. For example, a friend of mine JUST recently heard about a diner in Wellington, OH that has been there since probably 1925. Not only do they have a good breakfast(had to drive out there from eastern NY to check it out!) but it's a type of diner we've never seen before. Since I'm doing my research from a mostly historical standpoint, if you remember a diner "a long time ago" in a certain location, please let me know. Best Regards, Mike Engle speigletown@hotmail.com http://www.nydiners.2ya.com/ To see what information I have collected so far about some Ohio diners, check here: http://www.geocities.com/cornwallace55/ohio.html _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com

>From the 1937 Tel-Buch: James W. Aiken was born in Ohio County, West Virginia, May 26, 1899. He attended grade school in Tiltonville, Ohio, and high school at Martins Ferry, Ohio. It was at Martins Ferry High School that "Jimmy" first showed signs of athletic prowess. During his four years of high school, "Jimmy" Aiken played two years of basketball, four years of baseball, four years of football, and participated in track four years. In his senior year he was honored with the captaincy of both the football, and the track teams. Before being graduated in 1918, "Jimmy" was named to an honorary left end position, three years in a row, on the mythical All-Ohio Valley selections. He entered Washington and Jefferson College in the fall of 1918, and there played four years of football and two years of baseball. In 1921 he was a member of the W & J team that went to the Rose Bowl. "Jimmy" Aiken's record is an impressive one. Before coming to the University of Akron, Coach Aiken's fourteen year coach-record boasts 121 football games won, 16 games lost, and two games tied. His first year record with the Zippers was six games won, two lost, and one tied. p. 72 of the University of Akron yearbook, Tel-Buch, 1937
