Surnames:BARE BARRE BOWER GREEN HILL KORNER TILSON TURNER
Please help!!! I have been trying to find information on a Matilda Ann BOWER, born in Carey, Ohio on 4 January 1859. Her parents were Samuel Heisington BOWER and a Mary Willson(maiden name?) HILL. My great aunt Althea (daughter of Matilda) died a couple of years ago, and before she died, she told me the story of her mother and family. She stated that Matilda's mother died in 1859. Her father enlisted into the Ohio 66th ret't and died in the Battle of Shiloh, or the Pittsburg Landing. Matilda was left an orphan at the age of four, and then went tolive with her grandfather Hill and an aunt. Matilda then moved in with a Mr. and Mrs. Henry BARE (BARRE)of Belle Vernon, Ohio. Mary Willson HILL was born 1 March 1838 in Lake County Ohio. Samuel H. BOWER was born on 4 July 1837 in Canton, Ohio. I have later learned that Samuel deserted from the army in 1862. (So much for dying a hero!) I just can not find anything on these people. Matilda BOWER married Rufus S. TURNER on 8 Nov. 1883. His parents were Harriet TILSON and Alba C. TURNER. They moved to Ohio where their 5 children were born. Althea was born 29 March 1850 in Buecrus, Ohio. Laura E. was born in Havana, Ohio on 12 Jan. 12, 1852. Willis was born on 5 April 1854 and married Kate C. Green and resided in Carey, Ohio. Ella M. was born on 16 March 1858 and married 4 May 1879 Nelson Korner. Rufus married Matilda 8 November 1883. Any help in connecting these people to events, etc. would be appreciated. Sincerely, Teri Dover, Bremen, Maine 04551

Surnames:DEEDS DUCHMAN DUKEMAN SPOTTS
I'm researching the DUCHMAN / DUKEMAN family in Wyandot County from 1820's to 1866. Stephen DUCHMAN, b abt 1770 in PA, married Wilhelmena (unknown) prob abt 1790 prob in PA. He bought land in Tymochtee Township in the mid 1820's. He sold his land, the last going to son, George, so he didn't have a will. (Rats.) Wilhelmena died in 1849 and in the 1850 census, Stephen was living with single son, George, and Stephen Jr.'s family in Tymoch T. Stephen Sr. died shortly after, and both he & his wife are buried in the Lutheran Cemetery in McCutchenville. Stephen Jr. married Margaret DEEDS in 1832 and paid taxes on his land until 1854 when he vanished. George married Margaret SPOTTS in 1851 and farmed and paid taxes until he sold out in 1866. I can find no later marriages of DUCHMAN in Wyandot and no others in the cemeteries, so I conclude that both families left the area and prob the state. Did they go west? I would very greatly appreciate any help I could get on this family. Thanks! Ann

Researching WICKISER family from Richland Township. According to the History of Wyandot County 1884 on April 4, 1835 two pioneers, Conrad Wickiser and Charles Smith, were out "logging" in the northwest corner of Section 21, when the chain used in the work happened to break, and becoming entangled in a spice bush, tore it up by the rotts, disclosing to their view a soil rich and promising. Thereupon the two men resolved that the newly created township should receive the name by which it has since been known. Conrad Wickiser, a native of Baden Wurteemburg, Germany came to Ohio with his family in 1810, settling in Perry County from there to Delaware County and 1834 to Richland Township.

Surnames:BOWEN KELLEHER McNIGHT
I am searching for the parents or siblings of Catherine MCNIGHT born in Limerick around 1841. She was four years old when she came from Ireland first to Canada, then to Nevada,OH and by 1860 she was working for Ozias BOWEN, a lawyer in Marion, OH. Catherine MCNIGHT married John KELLEHER in Marion in 1863. I am hoping to find any family that may have stayed in Nevada(Wyandot Co.) Thanks to anyone who can help me with my MCNIGHT family.
