BELL-CLARK-TURNER of Ashtabula OH and Mercer Co, PA and Henry Joseph SCHAEFER m. Henrietta "Nettie" SMITH- SCOFIELD (or SCOVILLE) of Ashtabula OH, Buffalo NY and Ft Erie, Ont.CA. I'm especially seeking information about the parents and grandparents of John Elmer Bell b.2-8-1863, d.2-6-1936, m. 12-8-1889 to Emma S. Turner in Clarks Mills, Mercer Co, Pa. (per #796 Mar.Lic.Docket of Orphan's Court of Mercer Co.) John Elmer Bell's father was also John Bell m. Mary(?) John and Mary and son John Elmer all are buried together in Hadleyville Cem. Mercer Co, PA. The family was living and farming in Mercer Co, in 1870 census. John Bell the Father listed his place of birth as New Jersey in the 1870 census but the name is so common and there are so many counties in New Jersey I can't sort it out. I don't know Mary's maiden name. So I've hit a wall. At least one son of John E. and Emma, Wilbur Alexander Bell, was born in Clarks Mills 12-11-1888. John E. lived with various of his 5 sons (including Wilbur) in Ashtabula OH. near the end of his life and was separated or divorced from Emma. Wilbur's only son was Raymond, (my father).
