I would like to insert a plea for any information about the lone WILMOTH in this list. My WILMOTH line, so far, stands alone. John WILMOTH (b. .29 Mar 1813 d. 31 Jan 1875) m. on 5 Oct 1833 Rebecca WALRAVEN (b. 17 Jul 1813 d. 31 Jan 1875) Their marriage was registered in Clermont County, Ohio. His name was spelled "WILMITH" and hers "WALRIVEN" in the record. They had ten children b. from 1834-1851: Samuel M.; James A.; Ann Maria; John E.; Sarah F.; Sally P.; Susan E.; Joseph Francis; Trifin (or Grifin, name unclear on Census Record); George M. -- all born in Batavia, Clermont Co., Ohio. John was a "riverboat man". We believe his forebears immigrated to New York, from England, then migrated along the rivers, probably to VA then OH. Their son, Joseph Francis WILMOTH (b.22 Aug 1850 d. 23 Mar 1902) m. on 12 Feb 1879 in Broadwell KY, Mary Elizabeth WARNOCK (b.20 Oct 1861 d. 28 Jan 1902). The family moved from KY to MO in 1881. They had seven children born from 1880-1894: Jessie L.; John Homer (both born Paris KY); Samuel M.; Joseph Stanley; Almira Myrtle; Mary Ethel; Robert Stanley (all b. Butler MO). My father was Samuel M. WILMOTH. I have been trying to connect my family with the extensive CURRANCE/ WILMOTH group from WVA, but have been unsuccessful, so far. My father told me that Joseph Francis WILMOTH had attempted to trace his family, but that needed records had been lost in a fire. My attempts to trace the family beyond John have also failed, though I did trace Rebecca WALRAVEN through her mother's family, SARGENT, to their immigration to MD in 1745. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Virginia. <[email protected]> On Mon, 06 Jul 1998 08:41:55 +0000 [email protected] writes: >Kevin- > I also have Lydia Steel(e) and William Currence.
