Seth refers to the Deerfield (Hicksite) MM in Morgan County, Ohio that changed its name to Westland MM in 1860. That adds to the confusion with Westland MM in western Pennsylvania, also a part of Ohio Yearly Meeting. I will note this information on the MMNA entry: http://www.quakermeetings.com/meeting_view?anID=TST1996L Tom Thomas C.

A lot of McGirrs are buried there. They were part of Deerfield Monthly Meeting, whose minutes are lost. They moved to the area after 1828. A few McGirrs were members of Chesterfield Monthly Meeting (Morgan Co.) and are included in EAQG vol. 4.

He was a member of Westland Monthly Meeting in Washington County, Pennsylvania. That's actually closer to Belmont County, Ohio, than is Washington County, Ohio. Tom Hamm Good evening list... > I have just joined the list. I am looking to connect to any descendants of the McGirr Wilson Gibbons/Givens families of Belmont and Washington Co Ohio. Some of these family members are in The Quaker Cemetery in Washington Co. I am new to the research of The Quaker people and am willing to learn all there is to know about these amazing people. I only found out this week that they are my people. I am excited to know more. As a descendant of these families and would like to exchange info. I look forward to a lot of connections here. > > Nancy Price Beck
