The DAR does not require birth certificates from periods when they aren't available. Showing him on the census with his parents backed up with a death certificate or other information that gives his parents. If he's still with his parents in 1880 that would be best but even a deed from his parents to him is acceptable. I'm a registrar and have had the census accepted if its all that exists. Merry Anne

Deb, Thanks, No I do not have Scott's address. I did receive an answer from Dan. He tells me that GG Grandfather Phillip F Walters is buried at Whigsville and gave me the location of the grave. It must be poorly marked or I am a bad searcher because I did not find it while there. Dan did say that the state buried grandpa so maybe the marker was very small without a name. Dan also said that there was a WPA grave survey in Woodsfield that I might be able to look at if it is still there. Even though the cemetery is by a church is it still taken care of by the township? I do want to pursue this info, I am really interested in where Phillip came from. Do you think Scott would have additional information?

Ray.... Scott Britton may be the one that can help you out. Dan is also a Civil War Buff. He is a reenactor. Do you have Scott's email address? The weather in Philly is very cold, and very windy. We got a light dusting of snow last night. Didn't amount to much. Marietta, and Washington Co. did get snow, but I don't know how much.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: Diamonddeb Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.ohio.counties.washington/1614/mb.ashx Message Board Post: A new photo album has been added to the historical Marietta, Ohio MySpace web site. http://www.myspace.com/historicalmariettaohio Titled: "VARIOUS OLD PHOTOS IN WASHINGTON COUNTY, OHIO" (see photo link below the profile picture on the site) Many of these photos were once on my "Washington County, Ohio Historical & Genealogy Links" website, but is no longer available because Hometown AOL has closed its doors :( So, if you still have that URL up on your site, you can remove it. For those of you who know about the web site....you know that I have LOTS (hundreds) of photos to add to this album. Remember to check the comment section of each photo (in all albums), because it gives information about each photo that is uploaded to the Marietta, Ohio MySpace site. The purpose of the historical Marietta, Ohio MySpace is to draw attention to our great historical town and to educate all people (young & old) with the knowledge about the importance of its history in and around Marietta, especially with the effort of getting more young people involved in history & genealogy. The site was developed on in April of 2008. Its quite new, but it is growing fast as the word gets out. The BLOG section of the site includes some very educational information that some people are not aware of, including contributors of the site that allows me to add copyrighted information and photos and URL links to historical & genealogy websites in Washington County, Ohio. Several new things have been added, such as the history of McClure-Shafer-Lankford Funeral Home (1892-present); info about travel and tourism; book: Escape of Jane; Biography of Claude Davis; "lots" more photos, and this one photo (and info) of JOHN WESLEY BOWERS, of the 77th OVI, plus some military info on his brothers. There are several people & businesses that contribute to the site. You don't have to be a member of MySpace to view anything on the site. I have the privacy settings set to "public". The only things that you can't see if your not a friend of the Marietta, Ohio MySpace are the bulletins that I put out. If you don't know much about navigating around MySpace, some of the new things are posted in the BLOG section on the right hand side of the page. Under the profile pic there is a link that you can click on View Pics/Videos. Click on Pics and it will bring up all the various photo albums that I have online so far. Then all you have to do is click on the Album of your choice and it will bring up all the pics in the album. To view a pic up close and to read the comments, click on any photo and it will enlarge itself. Under the pic is the info about it. If anyone would like to contribute to the site, (PLACES & EVENTS ONLY) send me an email at my "regular" email address (see below) where you can send me pics & information about them. Your name & MySpace url (if you have one) will be credited as the owner of the photos and will also be added as one of the contributors of the site. If you don't have a MySpace url, that's ok..... I can just add your name as an owner and contributor of the site. In the comment section of the photo, I can add that anyone can contact me about it through MySpace, then I will send you a personal email letting you know about the inquiry. Don't want to add email addresses to MySpace because of the Spam Robots that roam over the internet. This happens not only on MySpace, but everything that is put out on the world wide web. Also............feel free to add the URL to your website if you have not done so already. Also, be sure to check out all the historical friends that the site has, as well as people from Washington County and other states across the US. Many profiles are public and have beautiful sites. All you have to do is click on their photo. If you visit the Marietta MySpace, be sure to sign the GUESTBOOK. Marietta loves it when you come to visit, even if its only online.

Author: r_a_green Surnames: Classification: immigration Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.ohio.counties.washington/1613/mb.ashx Message Board Post: 19th CENTURY ATLAS, MAPS, HISTORICAL GUIDES & GAZETTEERS (includes publications from IA, IN, MN, OH and WI) http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/hgg.html Historians, genealogists and researchers of the 19th century Midwestern United States will find the vast amount of historical research material in these books and atlases on CD a very valuable resource. Each of these extensive gazeteer and immigrant guides contain the description of places and place names, many of which are no longer found on contemporary maps, including: cities, towns, villages, settlements, schools, post offices, transportation routes and schedules, and much more. Historical Guides and Gazetteer CD's may also include maps of the period providing cartographic reference to 19th century places identified and discussed in the literature. Also included are hundreds of advertisements by contributing businesses providing historical insight into the goods, services and the merchants that made them available during the 19th century. Anyone interested in the history of these regions will find this material useful. ------------------------------------------------------------ HISTORIC ATLAS SERIES (includes 19th century atlases of IA, IL, IN, KY, KS, MI, MN, NE, OH, PA, VA and WI) http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/has.html The Historic Atlas Series CD's are digital reproductions of 19th century maps and historical atlas data in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). The Adobe Reader software is required to view, manipulate and print PDF data is included on each CD. States with maps and atlases currently available are shown in the graphic to the right. 19th century geographic and statistical data are useful to historians, genealogists and researchers with an interest in the landscape and cultural setting of this period. Early county maps may contain many places that no longer exist or that have been obscured over time. Atlases with statistical data provide vivid detail of 19th century pioneer lifestyles. Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no exception; however, by virtue of the Adobe PDF formatting, these documents may be inspected and printed at high levels of magnification without additional digital distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper reproductions and photocopies. There is a vast amount of information that can be gleaned from these sources and the diligent researcher will find these cartographic resources useful in their studies. ------------------------------------------------------------ Good luck with your research!

Hi Debbie, I just a little late in reading my email but I certainly am glad you got to back to Marietta. I love the town (where I was born and lived for several years). However, Kansas is quite a distance from there and it is very seldom that I have been back there in my late years. My husband recently past away and it is difficult for me to travel but I do hope to go back that way before too long. I also enjoy all the info you put on the email for us. Thanks for all you efforts.
