Yes, I know, but have never checked anything out on that place. That would be the logical thing to do!! However, it's not the right county. Thanks for the lookup.

My gggrandma, Johanna Draheim Denzin migrated to Akron Ohio in 1883. She passed away in Akron 3-18-1886. That is the extent of the information I have. Can someone out there please provide me with any information about her; such as, did she work somewhere, where did she go to church, where did her children attend school (Ida,and Herman), any information at all. I am also interested in the same type of information for her son, Wilhelm and his wife Caroline Pofahl (Pophal). I know they came to Ohio at a later date than she did; but I don't know when. I heard they stayed with Caroline's sister for a while; but I'm not even sure what her name was. I think it was Henrietta Pofahl; but, she may have been married. I appreciate what anyone can do for me. frascona@up.net

Do you have any MOREE - MOREYs shown? How about LECHLEITNER? Thank you in advance, Shelley Woods slwoods@anv.net

No, Willard's in this book. Listed are other Books about Akron (which I don't have) but maybe your library can get it through the interlibrary loan. Akron and Environs 1917 Akron and Summit County Scott Enfield, 1928 Akron Riot of 1900 C. R. Quine An American Prophet John Henry Evans Burch directories 1870-1952 Centennial History of summit county 1908 Wm. B.

No Willard's in the book but you know there is a Willard OH.

Sorry no Lucas in the book.

Sorry No Burnet's in the book.

There is a George Steese b PA Dec 12, 1812 son of Jacob and Sarah Deshler Steese. He owned the Clarendon Hotel and was in the coal business. He married Rebecca Neff ch John H. Dallas G. Mary an Emma.

No Lange nor Lang listed in the Akron Summit County Book.

No, Waldsmith in the book Akron & Summit County. The Akron City Directory would help if you know the time period that they lived in Akron. (Barberton and Cuyahoga Falls are sometimes separate.) It lists the name of the head of household and if a widow will name the husband's first name, place of employment and address. But, the children are not listed until they are older. I found the Hunt's brothers of Anthony Hunt, and they were butchers and they had an advertisement of their Butcher shop in the directory.

No Leohner, nor Leonard, Swartz and Gable but did find Donald Mell and Melvin Mell and both have bio's on them. A brief summary about the Mell's Donald C. Mell was the son of Marvin and Bell Huntley Mell b Sep 10, 1898 Akron. Fairlawn Coal & Supply. He married Josephine Sieberling dau of Francis and Josephine (Laffer) Seiberling. 3 sons Marvin, Donald C., Francis S. Marvin M. Mell b Greensburg OH b June 11, 1866. d June 3, 1945 son of Joseph R. and Sabina (Koontz) Mell. Operated Mell & Salem a feed store. Jun 21, 1892 he married Belle Huntley of Towanda PA 3 children Mary (Mrs. Alan Pope of Camarillo Heights CA) Donald Charles of Akron and Joseph Wade of Pacific Highlands CA

Is there a Thomas Wade mentioned in your book? I know that he was in Akron by 1875. He married my great great grandmother, Mary McMahon-McEnerny on August 18th. Also would you look for a George Wilkins. I only know that he was in Akron in 1912 when he married Katherine McEnerny. Thank you, Anne Marie

No Garske; All Millers' Ansel, August, Harvey, Charles, Ira M. Lewis, Mina, S.Samuel, Theodore, Miller Rubber Co.; William H. and Millerites (see Second Adventists)

There were only two Glen Wade, and Jos H. Wade;

Akron Iron Company formerly Akron Rolling Mills. The plant was located in South Akron; Nothing on Sell G Co; DM Co nor Twine works. The information I have covers very early years and early 1900's. The City Directories at Akron Public Library might have that info if you know the year that they worked there.

Judge James S. Carpenter Court of Common Pleas 1857-62; That's all written about the Judge; no Lancaster's named. Akron and Summit County Book.

Thank you so much for looking. I really appreciate your time and effort.
