As far as I know he has no direct descendants. My friend is in possession of letters, military papers (WWII) and hand-written tax receipts belong to R. Ozment (Henry's father?), dated 1875, Henry resided in Los Angeles at some point and lived the remainder of his days in Rosamond, California. We are not related to him. These papers were found in an old gypsy wagon left on the property my friend's family inherited after he and his wife passed away. Thank you for any help you can give me. Christina Morton-Scott>> Christina - this is a wonderful thing you are trying to do. I am going to tell you what I have found out here and it will be forwarded to the Ozment mailing list so maybe someone of this family will read it. Henry Reese Ozment was apparently the grandson of Robert Lindsay Ozment and Emeline L. Stephenson of Guilford Co, NC. I was able to figure that out from census records with help from other Ozment researchers. I don't know for sure who his parents were, but possibly George Ozment found living next door to Robert and Emeline on the 1900 Guilford Co, NC census. His mother seems to be listed on the 1910 census as ?elina C., age 28. She appears to be listed as Robert's daughter in law and it may say that she is divorced. This page was hard to read. She was an Osborn according to the California death index that lists Henry: OZEMENT HENRY REESE 12/17/1901 OSBORN M NORTH CAROLINA LOS ANGELES(19) 11/28/1980 568-03-5830 79 yrs In any case, Robert Lindsay Ozment was the son of Eli Ozment and Abigail Sullivant. We haven't been able to connect this line to the other Ozments in Guilford Co, NC as of yet. I hope that someone on the mailing list or this board will be related. Thanks for doing this!
