Dear Carol, I hope you do not mind that I am also sending this response to the entire Old Frederick list, but I thought something might be of interest to others. A quick check of the index of marriage records of Pickaway Co., OH shows the following: Stumpf, Jacob S. m. Brinker, Sarah 3/24/1849 Also of possible interest are these other entries for Stump and Brinker: Stump, Jacob m. Bailey, Elizabeth 1/23/18434 Stump, Jacob m.

Right now, I'm looking for information on a Jacob STUMP, probably born around 1815-1820. He married (where?) Sarah BRINKER who was born in Pickaway Co on 13 Mar 1827, a daughter of George BRINKER and Mary SHOPE/SWOPE. I may have something in the future that I need help with. I have a couple of "dead ends" in your county. Carol Jones Wilson Rt 1 Box 139 Mason, WI 54856 cjwilson@win.bright.net
