Good afternoon everyone, Would anyone know how far back vehicle registration records go? When were auto registrations first required in Ohio? Would some kind person have access to old phone directories (1922-1940) for cities/counties of Union Co, Marysville & Summit Co, Akron? My grandfather, Harold Lee Bishop disappeared from the Marysville/Pottersburg area in January 1926. I've just discovered that he re-appeared in the Akron area again in 1928-193?. Family "tales" lose him after 1928-'30. I've already been in contact with the Akron & Marysville Police Depts. about "missing person" reports. Akron PD found no arrest record (while searching for a missing person report) and Marysville told me their records don't date back to the 1920s/'30s. Thanks so much in advance for any help that anyone might be able to give me.

Hi, Would anyone have access to an old city directory for Plain City? Is Plain City in Union Co? I'm checking out a family recollection about a vehicle repair garage called "Briggs". Does anyone know if such a place and name still exists? Thanks so much for any help you may be able to give me. Jacquie (California)

Dovie Stump married Clifford Dorsey. They had 8 children, all born in Ohio. Clifford Dorsey was born 1884 & died 1976, Franklin Co., OH, and had six older sisters, plus a younger brother who died at the age of three. Robert Clifford Dorsey, the 7th child was born in 1919, Groveport, Franklin Co. OH I have no stats on Dovie Stump. Death certificate for Robert Clifford lists Mother as "Dovie Stump". Same as birth certificate. Granddaughter of Clifford, says her father said his parents moved to Ohio and died in Ohio. All responses appreciated. Dave Wilson

I am very interested in your email about the History of Union County. My great, great uncle was Thomas S. Loveless, b. 1821, moved to Logan Co. then onto Union. He had a mercantile company which had his name in it from about 1870 to 1890. I was hoping to get some background on Thomas. Could you advise.

I think someone from a list asked about Union Co. Ohio, Marysville, Paris Township in particular -- http://heritagepursuit.com/Untitle.htm --- I hope this is what they were looking for. Jacquie

Hi, I'm hoping to find someone with a copy of The History of Union Co. - 1883 - Vol. II, Part V - Township History who can do a quick lookup. Page 12 (regarding the Town of Marysville - Paris Township) is missing from the copy posted on Al Pott's wonderful web site. Page 11 ends with an unfinished paragraph on my gggggrandfather Joshua WITTER. "He remained there until the opening of the rebellion, when he was compelled to leave on account of his undisguised Union"....... I'd love to know how the sentence ends, and if there is another sentence about him. I'm hoping it mentions where he went (from Texas) and where he is buried. Thanks to all. Carol Ann

Claire, Am so glad you've gotten in touch with Ken Hayman. He's been so helpful to me. We still are not sure about my Margaret Jane HAYMAN born 1871 in Nova Scotia. Below, I've added the newest information I received concerning her.....it was found in Akron, Ohio by another lister. She married a BISHOP from either Newfoundland or New Brunswick, Canada. I'm hoping that someone will recognize her by the new data. Best of luck with your quest. Jacquie (USA, California) LincolnCM@aol.com wrote: > Jacquie- > Thanks for your reply.

Hello listers: Some of you may have visited this site already. For those of you who may have stumbled into a road block, this might be of some help.
