Is anyone researching the Boden Family of Fayette Co. I resently found Elizabeth Boden b 1799 in New Jersey living there with her children, Nathaniel b abt 1816, John b abt 1818, DAvid b abt 1820 and Parthenia or Patheney b abt 1821. Parthenia is probably my great great grandmother, the mother of Lewis Morris Willgues. I found him after many years of searching, all I had was a marriage date from Wellsburg, WV of 1858, but after going and geting a copy of the license the date was actually 1868, he had married Mary Mitchell of Washington CO, PA. But the paper did list his parents, William and Parthenia Willgues, I lost him again until 1880 when he was in Wheeling WV married to Harriett Gover with children, the he disappeared agian. But turned up in 1900 in Carnegie, PA married to my great grandmother, Ellen Pascoe, but again Harriet (wife #2) was still alive in East Liverpool, Ohio. And a Mary (wife #1) Willgues was in Ohio. AGAIN Louis is gone. After searching the web for WILLGUES I find a letter written (dated 1905)from Belle Vernon, PA GAR Post to a Carnegie GAR Post about a name change for Louis. He had enlisted in teh Civil War under the name of Lewis Boden in Ohio, but fought with Company G of the 22nd Cavalry Pennsylvania Volunteers. I still have not found where this man is buried even though I lived in the same town as where this man probably died about 1905, and have done extensive research of the Carnegie newspapers of that time. I would like to exchange Boden information with anyone interested in the family. I believe they moved to Ohio in the late 1850's Thank you Terry Terry Hutchison Cook
