Hi Becky My Dad told me our origins were from western Tennessee. I have very little info to go on but here it is. Harvey Newton Ozment married Mary Russell approximately 1890 in Johnson County, Ill. There childrens names were Nell, Clarence, Eula, Arney (two others I can't recall right now). Arney was my grandfather. I hope you find something Becky. Thanks for sharing!

Hi, Lon and all members of "THE LAND OF OZ" I am working on my plan to come to the OZMENT family reunion on Oct. 6th in TX. We just finished moving into our new home and you all probably know how disruptive that can be. I would certainly enjoy meeting my cousins, some of whom I have corresponded with over the years. I would be representing the MD, NC and VA branches. Lon, I will try to at least send copies of pictures of my direct Ozment lineage through my Great Grandparents, Adolphus Lafayette and Julia Chase (Lane)Ozment. That is..... when I can locate my files again!!! Hope to see you in person. Best regards, Dwight W. Ozment Mechanicsville, VA

I wish I had the rest of his family's pictures! Lon LonRMartin@aol.com

I am always interested in getting old pictures of all the Ozments. I find it very interesting the family resemblance sometimes. It is interesting but my grandmother's name was Julia Hartence Ozment. That was her married name, she was a Cooper. My sister, Kathy Tandy lives in Gilbert, Az. She is coming to the reunion. The last one we had in 1995 there were about 100 relatives who showed up. Mostly all from different parts of Texas. We always have a real good time since we don't get to see each other that much anymore. Thanks for writing. Lon

Lon, regret that Chris and I will not be able to make the trip to Texas this time. Since I am primarily the Maryland connection to the family, is there anything you would like from me for the reunion? I also use FTM. If you like, I could forward a picture of Chris and I so folks will know what we look like. I also have a few photos of Ozments, but not many that I can scan and send. Please let me know.

Martha is not on the Ozment list right now but made her original post to the Ozment message board which was gatewayed to the list. I hope we can get her to join the list.

She has the orginal wanted poster of cole younger,she let me get a copy serval years ago before it begin to fall apart. I've told her serval people have told me the same thing you said, and she says , Well! they don't know what their talking about. Shes a cute funny lady, and I just love her. I know you are familiar with Blue Bonnet maragin? She also says Gene Aurty"s wife posed for that lady in the blue bonnet.So she has a wrapper from the margin in her family book.Her last name was Ozment before she married. What are your parents Names? When I mention this to her shes going to want to know so she can see where you fit into the family. Martha

I have your husband, Carl Adrian Ozment, in my family file. He is a direct descendant of John Jasper Ozment. There are two "Clinton Ozments" in that family line -- Andrew Clinton, 1843-1883, was the father of Elnora Ozment who was Gene Autry's mother. James Clinton, 1886-1965, was a nephew of Andrew Clinton, being a son of Robert H. Ozment, younger brother to Andrew Clinton. Both Andrew Clinton and Robert Henry Ozment were sons of John Jasper Ozment, 1800-1855. As to the connection to Cole Younger, I believe it is just a family story. It is pervasive, but I have found no proof. Cole Younger's mother, Bethsheba, was supposed to be a sister to Anna Mae and Margaret Morgan, who were both wives of John Jasper Ozment. That would make Cole Younger a nephew to John Jasper. However, all the information I have found says that Bethsheba was not a Morgan; she is cited as "Bersheba Leighton Fristoe", 1816-1870, born in TN. The Morgan sisters were born in NC, so that location doesn't fit any better than the last name. I know families moved around, and the Fristoe could have been an early marriage, but there is no indication of "Morgan" associated with Bethsheba in any of the sources I have found. Caroline

My husband Carl Adrain Ozment,has the same descendants you do as, but I don't remember seeing your name in his family tree.Clinton Ozment was his great Uncle.and I believe Clintons sister was Gene Autry's mother, She was an Ozment.so he was my husbands cousin. Then I'm told farther on back, Cole Younger was also kin to the Ozments. I have a copy of one of his reward posters, they were offering $1000.00 for his capture, that was a lot of money back then. and John Jasper is his great, (about 3or 4 times)grandfather also
