Hi! With so much activity on this mailing list I think I should take advantage and put my query out with my brick wall. Is anyone out there researching the SHIREY surname. I am searching for Mrs. SHIREY, the 1st wife of John SHIREY b. 24 Nov 1773 in PA d 20 Mar 1850. He lived in Greencastle. He married 2nd to Anna Marie Ruthrauff and had 5 children with each wife. Does anyone have knowledge of the name and family of the 1st Mrs. SHIREY? Both John and Anna Marie are buried in the Old Reform Church Cemetery in Greencastle. Would love to hear from anyone researching the SHIREY name. Thanks for helping. Gail Dorsey Driggs Phoenix, Arizona
Dear Jim I am sorry I do not know what the Foreman book is. I am in IL. Is it possible to find at my local library? Best Regard, Nance --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Get on board. You're invited to try the new Yahoo! Mail.
Dear Linda Thank you so much for your assistance. The information you sent added some info and confirmed some other info I have found. That baptism for William confirmed that the mother was Lydia though most records list her as Catherine. The rest of this email deals with other family names and might be boring to you. So far I have not run into your family name. I do have that my Jacob had one and possibly two illegitimate children with Susanna Houck after Catherine died. I have also wondered if they were part of the Brethren community at one time and switch to the Lutheran church. Some of the Houck's stayed with the Brethren. Some of Jacob's daughter's families migrated to IL with the group of the Brethrens in 1854-1855. I list Martin Seavolt as Jacob's brother and list his wife as Martha Swed. But that was all I have found on Martin's family. I have some info on Martin such as the 1820 census, 1817 land in Franklin Co. One family tree lists him as Jacob's father but according to papers at the Franklin County Historical Society the father was named Cyrus and his sons were Mathias, Jacob, Henry and Martin and a sister. Mathias supposedly settled in Big Cove Tannery. They supposedly came to PA around 1780 but it could be later and closer to 1790s. (Also, I see there is a Gabriel Swend in that area and could be Martha's brother or other relative. I have not confirming info on that.) If this is the case my Jacob, husband of Lydia Catherine whose birth year is 1793 would have been born in the US and not Holland. I found no other information on Cyrus. Besides the mentioned sons there are two girls, Mary and Sarah. Some listed one of these girls father's as Jacob. Based on their birth dates they would have had to be siblings on my Jacob. So if they are siblings it would indicate Cyrus was named Jacob or the son's Martin or Henry were also named Jacob and they would be his daughters. I throw all this out there in case there is other information such as baptisms for children of any of the brothers. I do know that Mathias had two sons that went to OH and I have traced most of their families. Mary married James Edminson and Sarah married John Souder. Souders lived near the Seavolts in 1820. Also one of Mathias' sons, John, married Anna Zimmerman whose father was John Zimmerman. On the 1850 census Jacob Seavolt's son, Daniel was living with a Michael Zimmerman family in Franklin Co. I am trying to do all the primary Seavolt families. It seems to help to see how people connect and also to sort through those with the same names to get them in the right branch. Someone from the list also sent info that Lydia Catherine Miller might be the daughter of a George Miller who lived near the Seavolts. There are many Miller families in that area but nothing really confirms what family Lydia came from. I would love to vist Franklin, Fulton and Bedford county. It sounds like a lovely area. Yet, circumstances keep me in IL for now. Again, thanks for your help and I am going to look through some of the info you sent more closely for further leads.

Thanks Glenn - Things are wonderful here in Cali. Still warm enough but cooling down nicely. In an online listing for Hawbecker Cemetery, I find the following that matches your CD: Gipe, Elizabeth, d. Sep 18, 1850, age 8mn and 22da, d/o George and Elizabeth Gipe, George, b. Aug 24, 1852, d. Nov 16, 1853, age 1yr 2mn 16da, s/o George and Elizabeth _http://www.interment.net/data/us/pa/franklin/hawbecker/index.htm_ (http://www.interment.net/data/us/pa/franklin/hawbecker/index.htm) This would give Elizabeth a birth date of approximately 27 Dec. 1849. The child found in the home of my George and Elizabeth GIPE in 1850 was 5/12 months as of the census date of June 1, 1850. This fits perfectly with the one in the Hawbecker Cemetery. There is also a gap in the family that would account for a child named born about the time of the above George. I do believe these to be my family group. Does anyone know of any records that might have been kept for deaths during this period? Shelly California Dear Shelly: Hows things clear over there in California ?

Hi John - Yes, we did have contact about a year ago and I did take a group of school children to Gettysburg. I was captive on the bus, only a short drive away, and no ability to pay a visit! I was recently in Salt Lake City to do some research. Despite looking at many films, I'm still stuck with these folks. I had hoped that I'd find some additional records on the "other" George GIPE who shows up in the 1840 census in Springfield, York, PA, but no such luck. Given that my George GIPE was 14 years older than his wife Elizabeth, it wouldn't be unreasonable to think that he may have been previously married. There is another GIPE that shows up in a neighboring county in Illinois around the same time that my folks show up there. I'm not sure if there is a connection with this Samuel GIPE (ca 1835, PA), wife Sarah, and children John Wesley and Emma. My George GIPE also had a son named Samuel, born Dec. 1863. Thanks for any ideas. Shelly Hi Shelly If I remember correctly we talked about our Hawbecker/Barncord connection last winter. Was it you who was taking a group of children to Gettysburg? I will look into my data and get back to you. John: [email protected]

I am seeking to find further information on George GIPE, b. abt. 1809 in PA and his wife Elizabeth BANRCORD. Little is known about George GIPE. His census records are: 1850 - Montgomery Twp, Franklin County, PA 1860 - Not found 1870 and 1880 - Buda, Concord Twp, Bureau County, IL. He is also listed in the Franklin County 1843 tax list. No death record found. It is suspected to be sometime between 1880 and 1892. No burial records found. I would like to know who his parents are and have found no leads. The David GIPE family of Franklin County does not have a child that matches. Elizabeth BARNCORD is believed to be born about 1823 in PA. Strong evidence exists to suggest she was the daughter of Jacob BARNCORD and wife Catherine, of Franklin County, PA. She can be found in the same above census records with her husband, George GIPE. She bought property in her name in 1861 in Buda, Bureau County, IL and sold it in 1892 as a widow. She has not been found in the 1900 census, nor have any death or burial records been found for her. It is believed that two of George and Elizabeth (Barncord) GIPE's children are buried in Franklin County in the Hawbecker Cemetery. These include a son named George and a daughter named Elizabeth. Elizabeth's age matches exactly that of the daughter Elizabeth found in the home of George and Elizabeth (Barncord) GIPE in 1850. I have done extensive research on these folks and am at a dead end. If anyone has any clues or is connected to these families, I'd love to hear from you. Thank you, Shelly Harris California
My heart felt thank to everybody (and there was quite a number of you who did respond) to my inquiry about Green Hill Cemetery in Waynesboro Pennsylvania. My cousin who lives in the Chicago area and his brother will soon be going to do some restoration on an old farm burial ground near Welsh Run where their gg grandfather has been located. He will also be going to Green Hill to search and hopefully photograph the tombstones or markers for me. Thanks again for pointing us in the right direction John L. Raymer
