I have a few Dilworths -- Joseph Dilworth b. abt 1791 married Elizabeth Lambright b. 1789. They were in Portage County, OH by 1820, and returned to Beaver County sometime before 1840. By 1840 Joseph and Elizabeth were separated. From the early Census tallies they must have had 6 or 8 children, but the only two I can prove are: Joseph Dilworth b. 1812 was last heard of by me on the 1860 Census in Williams County, OH. John A. Dilworth b. abt 1818 is buried in Maple Grove Cemetery in Ravenna, OH. The elder Dilworths were still in Beaver County, still apart, in 1850. I haven't seen anything of them since. I know there were at least a couple of potential fathers for the elder Joseph, but I haven't got the family all sorted out yet. I know there were a couple of Ministers in the family, and there's some diary stuff published from at least one of them -- I think it was a Helen Clear I found in Allen County Public Library. I'd be interested in anything anyone has to share on Dilworths in general. Also interested in: LAMBRIGHT, THOMPSON, MUSSER, WILSON, GEARN/GEARREN/GARRIN -- that last one is spelled a different way every time you see it, it seems. Jack Brode Long Beach, CA
FYI There are Lambrights living in Enon Valley, PA. today. Dilworth is an East Palestine, Columbiana Co,.OH name. East Palestine is the "big town" where people living in Enon Valley go to shop. It is only about 4 miles away. Wally Dilworth was the chief of police there for a number of years. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 8:03 PM Subject: Re: [PABeav'r] SPALDING, DILWORTH, MAKEPEACE > I have a few Dilworths -- Joseph Dilworth b. abt 1791 married Elizabeth > Lambright b. 1789. > > They were in Portage County, OH by 1820, and returned to Beaver County > sometime before 1840.
