Hello-I am looking for a death record or obit on Abram Parscal, town of Warren, Co.of Jefferson. He was on the 1880 census and was 85 years old so I think he probably died after that date. Can anyone help me or give me help where to go to look? thanks. ellie parscal spearman

After c1922, birth records (and/or certificates) are housed at the County Board of Health office. There are some records 1856-1862; none 1862-1867; and spotty (at best) between 1867-c1900. The addresses for both record locations are posted at the Scioto Co site for your reference: http://www.scioto.org/Scioto/ Happy Hunting!

hello again. i think i have lost my mind. i forgot to ask this also. i was told by a former employee at the courthouse in portsmouth that my gr gr grandfather, Robert BENNETT was very often in the court records. some times because he was a troublemaker and the main one because it took him twenty years to get a divorce from his wife Catherine.(he had no grounds and she was being stubborn) anyway if anyone could get me a copy of some of his activities out of the records including his historic try for a divorce(not sure he ever got it) i would be greatful. i know its there for sure. this would be about 1760-75 perhaps. anything on him would be appreciated. than you . maggie coughlan

hello friends: does anyone know if there is a digest for sherman county kansas thats like this one? im up against a brick wall with my grandfather William W. WARREN who was from there. My grandmother Margaret BENNETT WARREN HUGHES came back to scioto county after they divorced, but i don't know what ever happened to him. also is there anyone who could check for a divorce on them for me. my scioto county court record s book dosen't have them in it. perhaps in another volume. thank you so vary much. they probably were divorce about 1894 orr so. thanks again. maggie COUGHLAN

Yea, I just found your list. My family was orginally from Scioto and Lawrence County. I am looking for the families of William Willis, Lousia Jane Walters, Hiram Walters and Mandi Barnett. I have a lot of information. I am particularly looking for information for 1860 on to the presents. I would be happy to share information with anyone who is searching the Barnett, Walters, Willis families. Sincerely, Carol Joplin Clapshaw

Hello Everyone, I'm sending this letter to quite a few groups of people, so it's pretty generic. My daughter asked me to make a webpage for Hunter Gale, my Grandson. I have one started and I will try to put updates on what is going on with his life and some recent pictures as I get them. This is just started so all I have is pictures and links to his ACC website, along with his ACC friends. Please take the time to visit the ACC website. These children are very special and can also use all the prayers and support that you can give. http://home.switchboard.com/HunterGale Please feel free to visit anytime. I won't be updating through email anymore, so add this to your bookmark and visit every month or so for updates. Thank-you so much for the prayers and support that all of you have given, it's made a difference. For over the last 3 months Hunter's health has been great up until last week. He has an ear infection right now, along with a case of Hand-Foot-Mouth disease. None of the two are that bad. He also cut his first tooth in the last two weeks. Thanks again, Mark Meinhart ____________________________________________________________________ Get free e-mail and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1

Does anyone out there know where I can find birth certificates at on people born in Scioto County before 1900. Marlene

Could someone who lives in Columbus do me a big favor and look up (2), WILLIAM DARLING, (obituaries) on microfilmed Columbus Dispatch. My car has been overheating, am trying to fix it, but it is boiling over, and Columbus is 62 miles away. Acccording to historical society, there were 2 William Darlings in Franklin County, Ohio. One (William Darling) who passed away, 11-9-1924 And another (William Darling) who passed away, 4-26-1914 Also, if you could look up Ellen M. Hart who passed away 10-16-1918, and, Eliza Barnhart who passed away 10-27-1918. I am sorry if I am asking too much, and will understand if I don't get a reply. If someone will do this for me, I will insist you please accept compensation. It is worth alot to me. At least 20 bucks or more if you want, thank you. Judy

One of the many lines I'm stuck on is SITTASON, which I suspect might be a variation of SISSON. I see Sisson in Gallia County in the 1820's, and elsewhere in the region, and wonder about a relationship. The best I can do on Sittason is a Sitsun in Indianapolis, a civil war soldier. If there is anyone on the list who's been working the Sisson line, I'd sure like to ask some questions to see if this worth persuing. I'm just fishing here, I freely admit. Thanks for the help.

Hi! I'm new to this list, and I'm wondering if anybody is researching the LORD family who lived in Scioto Co., OH before travelling to IL. I've been working on the LORD branch of my family, and I've run into a brick wall, so to speak. The ancestor I'm researching is A.K. LORD, born about 1822. He married Susannah MC MULLENS, born about 1818. She had been married and had two children by this marriage; I don't know her maiden name. There is confusion about A.K. LORD's name. On his marriage record (April 24, 1845) to Susannah, his name is reported as "Alexander". I have other sources that indicate his name was Abner Kern LORD. I have even seen his name reported as being Albert. In 1850, here's the census info. for this couple: Jefferson Twp., Scioto County, Ohio Lord, A.K., 39 ( My not: probably 29) , laborer, OH " " , Susannah, 31, OH Mc Mullen, Mary, 13, OH " " , Joseph, 11, OH Lord, John, 4, OH " " , Albert, 2, OH " " , John, 24, laborer, OH By 1860, they had moved to Piatt Co., IL. Here's the census info. Willow Branch Twp., Piatt Co., IL, p. 4 Lord, Henry, 39, Wagon Maker, 6000, 300, OH Lucinda, 32, IN Mary E., 11, IL John, 10, IL William M., 5, IL Lucinda, 1, IL Two houses away: Lord, A.K., 38, farmer, OH Susannah, 42, OH John, 15, OH Albert, 14, OH Eliza J., 11, OH Sarah E., 8, OH Frank, 4, IL Froman, John, 21, farm labor, KY Knaman?, J., 20, farm labor, KY Williams, M., 20, farm labor, TN (The age for Eliza Lord is proably wrong; I think she was 9 at this time.) Anyway, does anybody know about this family? I think that Henry and John LORD were probably brothers of A.K. LORD. There was also the following marriages in Scioto Co., OH about the same time as A.K. LORD's marriage to Susannah. They could be sisters. Lord, Nancy Sp : Hood, George M : Mar 21, 1844 County : Scioto Co. Sex : F Lord, Eliza Sp : Lord, Ezra F. M : Nov 22, 1845 County : Scioto Co. Sex : F If you know anything about this family, please contact me! Thanks. Beth BSmith7439@aol.com

hello again: i was wondering if someone may have some court records other than the ones i have for scioto county. i am looking for a divorce on my grandparents. they were married in goodland kansas in 1892. they divorced in 1893 or 1894. my grandmother moved back to portsmouth after they split up, so she may have gotten her divorce there. heres their names. William W. WARREN and Margaret BENNETT WARREN. any help would be greatly appreciated. maggie

Can anyone tell me if there is any information available on the Sly family. This would be the family of Roy Rogers. Thanks for any help, Karen S. Smith

I dont't have a lot of info on the Sly family but just a tidbit. When I was about 16 years old (I am 67 yrs. now) I took steel guitar lessons from a man named Sly who told me he was Roy Rogers's cousin. That was in Torrance, CA. I remember a first name of Leonard. That would have been either Roy's first name or the person I took lessons from. I remember after about a year of lessons, I won first place in a "Steel Guitar Rag" contest. I stiff have the guitar and still remember how to play the tune. Ed Glover San Pedro, CA

Don't mean to bother you but I think most counties in Ohio were pretty much the way they are now by 1850;s. some of the later county changes were the formation of Morrow and Mahoning Co.'s.. in the 1840's, Wyandot in 1845, Vinton in 1850, Noble in 1851, Ottowa & Summit in 1840. .
