Happy Winter Day Fellow Seekers, I am always looking for more information and or to "gather in" other relatives on the above mentioned line. The Hagerty folk start out in Fayette County, and the Geho line in Greene County. Eventually though, we find the marriage in 1850 Fayette Co. for William Blaney Hagerty (1828-1901) and Keziah Geho (1828-1905). Notes: Family bible reported in 1973 research of Robert J. HAGERTY, to be in the posession of Olive HAGERTY NELSON of Charleroi, PA. Description of bible was found in the research by Irene Lignian. Bible description and notations as follows: "The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments"; published by Jesper Harding & Son - 1858; Philadelphia, PA "-The bible in 1970 was then in the possession of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Nelson, Rural Route, Charleroi, Washington Co., Pennsylvania. This bible was in excellent condition, the writing was in script and the bible was well preserved. Each generation has added their family record."William Hagerty and Kezia Geho were married at George Geho's by Rev. Mansel (Pastor M. E. Church) March 21st in the year of our Lord, 1850. [Note: an article posted to the Fayette List showed a ; Rev. R. D. Mansell of South Brownsville; article from the Daily News Standard, July 28, 1912] By the 1860 census, the family is growing and William is working as a boat builder: 1860 census, West Brownsville, Washington Co., PA; census taken July 21, 1860 entry #109/109 Hagerty, Wm.; age 32; ships carpenter; born PA Hagerty, Keziah; age 31; born PA Hagerty, Theodore; age 9, born PA Hagerty, Sarah E.; age 7, born PA Hagerty, Mary F.; age 4, born PA Hagerty, Saml E.; (male) age 7/12, born PA I would LOVE to find the grave site (probably Washington Co.) for Keziah's grandfather, Adam GEHO (abt. 1764-after 1850).

I will to my daughter ELIZABETH COLE, my little spinning wheel and reel and a pair of smoothing irons inherited from my mother and all my household goods except the Bureau, block (?) and Big Table.  The aforesaid property to be kept in the house so long as she remains in it. I will that any hogs or grains (there is a side note to the will at this point, that states the words "or grain" inserted before signing) I may have at the time of my demise, to my son-in-law GEORGE COLE.  All the remainder of my property I will to be equally divided between my now living children. [These would have been: WILLIAM GARRISON GEHO, 1837 - 1923; MISSOURI GEHO COLE 1841-1940; KEZIA GEHO YEAGER (? date of death); MARIA ABIGAIL COLE (? date of death); ELLEN (? date of death); ELIZABETH (mentioned herein).  The children who  predeceased her were: BENJAMIN GEHO 1839-1864; CHRISTINE ANN, 1828 - 1880; MARY M. 1832-1871; GEORGE L., 1833-1847; CHARLOTTE, 1850-1857. ]  I appoint my friend Dr. T. T. WILLIAMS to be my executor of this my last will and testament.  In testimony whereof I have subscribed my name and affixed my seal this 12th day of February A. D. 1889. Signed with her 'X' mark ZIBIAH GEHO Witnessed by: GEORGE B. HENDERSON & TRUMAN HENDERSON, of Greene county, who later appeared before LAFAYETTE NICHOLS, Register for the Probate of Wills, Greene county, PA, June 1898, to attest to the death of said testator ZIBIAH GEHO on May 9, 1898 at 5 o'clock p.m.         Dear Marie: I have put off writing and giving you the account of Grandmother Geho's death hoping to get a chance to xerox it, but up to now haven't had the time.  So I'll proceed to copy it off: Mrs. Zilah Geho, wife of Adam Geho, deceased, died May 9, 1898.  On Saturday, May 6, her clothing caught fire from the open grate.   There was no one in the room with her, and she, being too feeble to extinguish the fire, was severly burned before help came.  Grandmother Geho was one of the oldest ladies in the county, being 91 years old.  She was born at Catawissa, Columbia Co., Pa., May 1, 1807.  She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Garrison, who moved here from Catawissa to Washington Co., 1818.  Mr. Garrison, who was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, lived to be 107 years old.  He died in Greene County 1847.   Mr. Adam Geho was born in Columbus, Ohio, 1804.  He came to Washington Co., where he married Miss Zilah Garrison in 1828.  In 1839 they moved to Greene County, locating in Jackson township.  Mr. Geho died in 1871, and Mrs. Geho, as stated above, died May 9, 1898. She leaves six daughters and one son.  Mrs. John Lough, Cameron, W.Va., Mrs. E. Cole of Hoover's Run, Mrs. David Yeager, Metz, W.Va., Mrs. Mary Minor, Mrs. James Cole, Hoover's Run, Mrs. George Cole, Bluff, and William Geho, Nettle Hill.  Two daughters and two sons are dead, Mrs. Wm. Emory and Miss Charlotte, George died in infancy.  Benjamin , who was a soldier in the Civil War, was killed during a campaign in Virginia.  William was also a soldier in the Civil War. Grandmother was a member of the Prosbeterian church, and always had a kind and pleasant word for all. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. W. Woodruff, at Mt. Zion Church.  Rev. Woodruff spoke from the 17th. verse of Revelation. In connection with the above, there is a poem written by G. Cole, concerning Grandmother Geho's death, but I'll wait until I get a chance to xerox it, so they will be together. In connection with the Cole Reunion, I counted up that out of all the Grandchildren Grampa Cole had, there are still 7 Grand-daughters and 2 grandsons still living.  Hermon, who was Uncle Berts only child, and myself are the 2 gransons. 2 of Uncle Dick's daughters are still living;  3 of uncle Simon's 4 daughters are still living, so far as I know.  Ruth died about a year and a half ago.  I doubt if we will ever hear of the other three.   Vanie and Ruth, of course, are still around. There are very few of the older Cole's who attend the reunion, and many of them are in-laws, and no longer bear the Cole name.  We never attended until about 5 years ago, when someone urged us to go, and we found it was worth while. Let me know if you want any other information.  I moght not know any more about it, but maybe could find out. Your Cousin, Lyndon C. Roach Washington, Pa., 15301                It rained in Waynesburg today.     Carole ________________________________ From: Karen Souhrada <karensouhrada@gmail.com> To: List: PAWASHIN-L Rootsweb <PAWASHIN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 11, 2012 7:33 AM Subject: [PAWASHIN] HAGERTY/GEHO Happy Winter Day Fellow Seekers, I am always looking for more information and or to "gather in" other relatives on the above mentioned line.  The Hagerty folk start out in Fayette County, and the Geho line in Greene County.  Eventually though, we find the marriage in 1850 Fayette Co. for William Blaney Hagerty (1828-1901) and Keziah Geho (1828-1905).
