Hi Margaret - Our index of burials in Wood County do not show any Elizabeth Dye. I checked the obituary index of the Center for Archival Collections at the University also.There is no Elizabeth Dye listed in that index either. We have one possible check that can be made yet and will try that at a later date and get back to you if we find anything.

I will try to contact some of the Pfeiffer's here and see if I can find any thing out for you. Also there is a few Dye's in the phone book but I cand not find any Behner's there is some Behlmer's here. The Pfeiffer's live in the next County and about 3 miles from me some of they have a large farm.

Earl - thanks for the help. Most of my Pfeiffer line was from Medina/Lorain Counties. I'm not aware of any being in Wood Co, but one never knows. We only know that a sister of my great-great-grandfather-Karl Wilhelm Pfeiffer - sister, Barbara Magdalena - came to US about same time he did in 1847 or so. No trace of her yet. May have been others that came though that we have no record of. Margaret

I am searching for info on my ggg-grandfather, Elder Aaron C. Grover. He was married to Mary Ann Davis and both were from New York. They lived in Delaware County, Ohio for at least 20 years. They first appeared on the 1870 census in Wood County. I have much info about their descendents but nothing about their ancestors. All of the Aaron Grover descendents in my line are buried in Union Hill including Aaron and Mary Ann, their son George and wife Sarah, their son John and wife Zora, their daughters Elsie, Clara, and Ruth along with their husbands. Also, there is another group of Grovers in Wood County that appear to be connected somehow but I cannot find the connecting family. This groups includes Alonson Grover m Mary Jane Purdy 1869 with the ceremony being performed by Elder A.C. Grover. Alonson's ancestor is Hezekiah Grover. Others in this group include Cyrus, Irvin K., Herman, Oliver, and more. A lot of them are also buried in Union Hill. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Vicki Ashton WCOGS #1310

Gene, Thanks for checking on that obituary for Helen Rogers in The Blade. Thanks too for correcting the date. (I never would have found it with the mistake on the date!) Nancy Roach

Hi Nancy Roach - Talked to Steve Charter today at BGSU CAC. The Toledo Blade obits are not in the Archival section of the University, but he said he can obtain a copy. I did not have the name with me at the time but will give it to him next Wednesday. I see in the obit notice in the CAC obit file the date is 9 Nov 1982 instead of 1989. Will get back to you later.

Hi Pam - We have searched the marriage records in the Wood County Probate Office from Vol. 13 beginning in 1901 through Vol. 21 ending in 1927. We find no record of marriage of Frank Dermer or Susan VanFelt. As she was born in 1883, that covers the period from the age of 18 through 44 for her. We checked both bride and groom. Sorry we could not helped you better.
