    3. Hi Vicki Ashton - We have a small history of many of the churches in Wood County. I looked at the folder on Plain Township churches today. I see only a short paragraph from Beers regarding the United Brethern Church at the Union Hill Cemetery. It listed a half dozen early members, etc, but no Grover was listed. We also have an index of ministers that were recorded in the Probate Office in Wood COunty. I do not see any Grover in there either.

I am fairly new to the list so I hope I am not repeating an already-discussed question! My ggggrandfather was Aaron Grover (I have posted about him in the past), born in New York in 1801, married Mary Ann Davis in New York, moved to Delaware County, Ohio for many years then to Wood County, Ohio. He is buried in the Union Hill Cemetery near Bowling Green, Wood County, Ohio. He was a minister and we have found several references to marriages that he had performed but never a reference to the church name. In the Union Hill Cemetery tombstone transcriptions book published by the Wood County Gen Society that I have, it shows on old United Brethren Church location on the cemetery grounds. Also on Aaron's tombstone it says Elder Aaron Grover. How can I find out if he was a member of the church there or possibly even involved with the ministry? Are there records from that church available? Any help is greatly appreciated!
