Thank you for your kind offer. Deb was asking for information and I was responding to her. She was born Elizabeth GARD. I have a book "David Rawson Ancestors and descendants 1636 - 1972" that has Elizabeths information and her father, John GARD. Elizabeth was the daughter of John and Nancy (Watson) GARD b. Wood County WV, Jan 19, 1805 d. July 1, 1884. buried on the old Rawson farm near Veto Lake, Dunham Twp., Washington County, Ohio. John GARD served in the Revolutionary war in Morristown, NJ. He settled in Wood County near 1800. Purchased lamd from Henry JOHNSON. I do not have John GARD's ancestors nor Elizabeths siblings. There is more info on the purchase, details etc. Thank you!

My maternal gg gm was Elizabeth GARD RAWSON. My relatives are from and still live in Wood County, WV. Linda in Virginia

I'm looking for ANY information about my 4th gr. grandparents, Joseph Johnson and Elizabeth (Watson) Johnson Gard. Elizabeth was married to 1. Joseph Johnson (Married abt. 1790) 2. John Gard Joseph Johnson died about the year of 1793 or 94. Elizabeth then married John Gard in Wood Co. Va. (Now WV) shortly after that. I think that Elizabeth died sometime prior to 1829, but can't confirm that. I wonder if any or all of the above names are mentioned in the History of Wood Co., WV, Marriages, Cementies, or Will's books? Maybe Washington County, Ohio too, since Elizabeth and Joseph's son (Jacob Johnson) came to Wash. Co. in 1828. Hope someone can help.

Hi Debbie, Do you have any record of who sent you the link to the Descendants of Abel Sherman? We think there is a connection with my husband's grandmother, but there is no contact information on that site.

Lucy is also listed in the "Look-Up" section of the LINKS page, with the same address. Maybe Maryann has a current email address for her, that she may be able to forward your email to her.

I am in the process of extracting more info from the St. Luke's Episcopal Church Records. In the Appendix section of the book there are several families mentioned with info that may be of some use to any genealogy researcher who is trying to find out more info on their ancestors that was a member of the church. Some has already been added. You can view these at this site: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/n/i/t/Debra-Nitsche/FILE/0061text.txt In part 2 of my work, I will be adding this all the the LINKS page once it is completed. Excerts From: THE HISTORY OF ST. LUKE'S CHURCH, MARIETTA, OHIO By. Wilson WATERS, M. A. - With Illustrations by: Harry EGGLESTON Printed for the Author by J. Mueller & Son, Marietta, Ohio 1884 (pg. 244) Mrs. SHEPPARD, who married Dr. CREEL of Parkersburg was born in London, England, in 1791, and came to Marietta in 1835, having been in this country about ten years. She was a great reader and an artist and fine taste and exquisite skill in music. She was in every way a lady of the highest culture. She died in Marietta, November 8, 1878. Her son, Mr. C. J. SHEPPARD, was appointed by Bishop MEADE, as lay-reader in Wellsburg and St. John's Va., where his (Mr. S's) wife's family was among the prominent Church families. Her father built the church there. Mrs. SHEPPARD'S daughter Julie amrried Mr. R. M. STIMPSON. (NOTE: This article is in reference to Mrs. Elizabeth Sheppard) (pgs. 244-245) Capt. Daniel GREENE was a sea captain, whose family was connected with that of General GREENE of the Revolution. He married an English lady of great beauty, who was a good Church woman. Bishop McILVAINE sometimes stopped at their house. They lived in the house now number 186 Front street, the residence of Mr. C. B. HALL, (son of Joseph E. HALL), who married Caroline S., daugher of Capt. GREENE. Part of this house was made from an old block house at Fort Harmar. His daughter, Isabella GREENE, married William HOLDEN, a brother of Mrs. R. E. HARTE (Miss Julia HOLDEN). His daugher, Mary Ann GREENE married James B, MATHEWS. Joseph E. HALL, whose sister, Theodosia, married Daniel H. BUELL, came to Marietta in 1817. He married first, Miss Rhoda BUTLER, of durham, Conn., aunt of Mrs. M. P. WELLS and great aunt of Miss Caddie BUTLER, at one time organist in St. Luke's, whose sister, Williamina married W. James HARTE, son of Mrs. R. E. HARTE. Joseph E. Hall's sister, Mrs. Mary DODGE, was the nother of Mrs. Susan COOKE, widow of J. R. COOKE. Joseph E. HALL, married second, Miss Rosanna ROE. James R., son of Charles b., son of Joseph E. HALL married Estelle DE LA VERGNE, a relative of Mrs. C. B. WELLS. John HALL, son of J. E. HALL, married Miss Frances E. HEREFORD, a niece of Mrs. Betty Washington Lovell. Miss Ellen Lewis, also a niece of Mrs. Lovell, married A. T. NYE, Jr., nephew of Arius NYE. Joseph E. HALL, Jr., married Eliza H., daughter of Dr. Hugh TREVOR, who came from County Down, Ireland, to Marietta about 1834. Dr. TREVOR married Miss Harriet HOLDEN, sister of Mr. R. E. HARTE. (Pg. 245) Mrs. Betty Washington LOVELL, widow of Col. Joseph LOVELL, came to Marietta in 1837. She was the daughter of Howell LEWIS, son of Col. Fielding LEWIS, whose wife was Betty WASHINGTON, sister of George WASHINGTON, the first president of the United States. Howell LEWIS was the favorite nephew of Washington and his private secretary; he married Ellen Hackley POLLARD, who resided for some years in Marietta and died here in 1855. When quite a child, Mrs. LOVELL, with her parents, was the guest of WASHINGTON at Mt. Vernon and was accorded the unusual privilege to a child of sitting at the table with him. She remembered this visit and the fact of her having sat on General WASHINGTON'S knee. this was a few months before his death. Mrs. Ellen Jael STEELE, sister of Mrs. LOVELL, came to Marietta two or three years before the latter. She married Dr. PATRICK of Charleston. Mrs. LOVELL was a power in the Church. the following obituary gives a true idea of her. Her nieces married as stated above. Her son, Joseph LOVELL married Sarah, daughter of A. T. NYE and niece of Arius NYE. Their daughter, Betty W., married F. F. OLDHAM, son of Judge W. H. OLDHAM. ---Obituary--- (pgs. 245-246) DIED--In Marietta, Ohio, July 2, 1866, MRS. BETTY WASHINGTON LOVELL, aged 69 years. The deceased was a woman of strong characteristics, sound in judgment, self-reliant, fixed in purpose, active, energetic, executive. In her religion, she was at once evangelical and catholic. While she loved all who love the Lord Jesus, she was intelligently and zealously devoted to her own communion, adorning it with a Christian life for half a century; giving to it, laboring for it' her purse a church treasury, her heart in its missions. For many years, she was the ministering angel in the sick-rooms of Marietta; almoner to the needy, comforter to the sorrowful, going about doing good. Many of the poor that survive her, will miss and mourn her; many that went on before, will welcome her. Her ministries in the flesh are closed, and she has gone to join the host of ministering spirits. Stars that set are not extinct; they go to shine in other skies. For years she had been waiting and watching. A believer in the pr-millennial coming and personal reign of Christ on the earth, she earnestly longed that she might be in the number of the quick at His advent. It was otherwise ordered. And it matters not; for "them that sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him." She rest from her labors, and her works do follow her. She has left to her children the heritage of a good name and a Christian example. she has left to the community the savor of a life of piety. _______________________ Other paragraphs yet to be extracted include the names of Mr. F.

Linda, I could not find them in the 1870 using Ancestry or Genealogy. In order to find them in that census, would have to look at Adair Co page by page. I tried a soundex and still couldn't find them. I would say that Roenna died (possibly with the birth of Emily in 1862) and Patrick remarried Nancy and had several more children. In the 1900 she states she had 11 children, 5 still living. No way to tell if she had children before marrying Patrick or if all 11 were Patricks. Not being able to access census between 1880 and 1900, possible some were born and died in that 20 year time frame. Also some could be born in the 1870's and died in the 1870's. Thank you for the info you sent, helped me to fill in some gaps although this is one of the off shoot branches. I descend from Isaac's son John (Hannah Stackhouse's brother). Dana

Dana Thanks so much for the additional info. That must mean that Patrick did marry Nancy Bryd the date I have is March 31 1863. That helps me find out what happened to Rosanne. Linda LRHall175@aol.com

Linda I have more children born to Patrick and Nancy Hanlin in MO: Jane abt 1863 Richard S abt 1873 Mary abt 1876 Martha abt 1876 Perry A Dec 1879 I found Patrick and Nancy listed as married in the 1880 census but living apart, he was a boarder working as railroad tieman and she lived with the children, different towns, same county. They are together in 1900 with no children with them, he is 71 and she is 57 Dana
