I just found an old letter among my mother's papers which indicates that some of my relatives are buried in this Rochester cemetery. Is there a listing or address I could contact to find Moody, Lynch, or Keene relatives? -- Marilyn Mills Hesse mmhesse@snet.net Windsor, Connecticut, USA Researching: CRAIGHEAD/LYNCH/MOODY/ROBINSON - in PA (Beaver Co) and N.

Dear List, I recently received a marriage certificate from Beaver Co Courthouse. The information on the copy was very very faded. Is there anyone who is going to the Courthouse and would not mind looking at just one piece of information on this certificate? The clerk said the film was not difficult to read but the copies were pretty faded. Please e-mail me privately if you can help. My efforts to have her look it up again were fruitless. Any assistance would be very appreciated. Thanks, Sherri Dysart in Oregon bucky@itseasy.net

I found reference that Philip Rouzer was buried in lot 7 of Mount Gilead cemetery. I've searched my maps and can't find any reference to this cemetery. I know that most of his family, if not him, belonged to the Sharon church near Coraopolis, and many are buried there. Could this be the same as Mount Gilead? -- Larry Thompson My genealogy page http://www.epix.net/~lt0168/index.html My Allegheny Co. maps page http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bridge/2338/

Anyone researching the DEAVER surname in Beaver County? My ggg-grandmother's name was Ann(a) Deaver, born about 1806 in PA, died Jan 5 1889 at the age of 83yrs in Carroll County, OH. She married Samuel CONLEY, year unknown, but probably around 1830 based on the birthdate of their first child. Samuel was born about 1805 and died Mar 13 1868 at the age of 63 yrs, also in Carroll County, OH. It's rumored that both Ann and Samuel came from Beaver or Washington counties. I've found families of both surnames in Beaver County on the censuses. Would love to take these lines back another generation or two. Any leads appreciated. Diane

Thought it might be time to repost this. I have been able to trace my Wallace ancestry back to my GrGrGrandfather James C Wallace b. 7 Sep 1832 (Carroll Co, OH ?) but then lose track. I am seeking his parents and/or siblings. He married Mary Eckley 27 Sep 1849 in Carroll Co, OH and had children: *Harvey 1850 m.Agness Amanda Wright, raised family Beaver Co, PA Samilda 1851 m.John Smith Martha Jane 1855 m.George Wright George 1857 moved to Clark Co, OH abt 1904 (?) James Howard 1863 moved to Cincinnatti (?), OH abt 1905 Amanda 1867 m.Elmer Milliron William 1869 ??? * my line James moved his family to Beaver Co, PA after the Civil War and the last 2 children probably born there, with the others born in Carroll Co, OH. The family was on the 1870 PA Census for Ohioville, Beaver Co. James died 1905 in E. Liverpool, OH and son Harvey died at sister, Martha Wright's home 1909, E. Liverpool. Have not been able to find what happened to any of Harvey's children or wife after his death even though many should still have been in school somewhere. Harvey Wallace's family (all born Smith's Ferry, Beaver Co, PA): Mary D b. 1875 m. William Hoyler in Jul 1892 *Edgar Jesse b. 30 Oct 1877 m. Mary Catherine Householder in 1902 **Harry Hoy b. 24 Jun 1881 m. Ada O Pryor in 1902 Margaret J b. Oct 1883 m. ?? Lowden d. Washington(?), PA Katherine"Kat" P b. Oct 1887 Bulah M b.

Anyone having a possible connection, please e-mail BWAL123@aol.com. All help greatly appreciated Bob Wallace in IL

Suggestion: If you put surnames in all caps, reader's eyes will automatically lock onto it.
