Betsy, Ann et al, The last address I have for David Youse is david.youse@verizon.net. An easy way to get information from the Beverly Yount books is to e-mail the Morrisson-Reeves library in Richmond. The Wayne County Genealogical Society has a set also and you can e-mail one of their researchers. Both URLs can be obtained from their web sites which can be easily accessed with Google. Having walked most of the cemeteries in western Wayne County, I can recall seeing the graves of many Hoovers. Ann also mentioned the Ellabarger and Beeson families. All three were pioneers of Wayne County. The second wife of the husband of my ancestor, Mary (Myers) Elliott was Alice (Wise) Hoover. This was also a second marriage for Alice, her first husband being Silas Hoover who died in 1883 at age 34. Exum Elliott (1823-1904), the husband of these women was a prominent citizen of Wayne County and donated heavily to Earlham College in Richmond. These families all came to Wayne County early (most as early as the 1820s or sooner). The county was very sparsely populated then and these people were all closely acquainted with each other. The area around Cambridge City, East Germantown, Dublin, Mount Auburn and Milton is rich with the heritage of German-American families. Frank L. Myers
