Looking at a number of letters that my grandfather saved in a tin box , I found a number of letters addressed to " Scioto Furnace ,Scioto County , Ohio " . These letters are dated 1865 to 1879 . The family members involved are primarily Jacob L. Kerr and his wife, Sarah ( Combs ) Kerr and their family . Their offspring were : Josephine , Lizzabelle , John , Sophia ,George , Eugene , Gaddis , and Hubert . I can follow Jacob and most of the family but I believe Sarah died in Scioto Furnace. The only other information I have is that Jacob L Kerr married Sarah Combs in Scioto Co on September 18 , 1851. Also , Sarah was born February 22 , 1836 in Ohio ( no city mentioned ) and died October 1879 ( ? ) . Thank you for your help in my search, Dick Cavenah rcavenah@aol.com

Looking for info on Alexander Cole b. 1836, married to Hester or Esther (Census records have it both ways). Census records indicate they were living in Nile Twp, Scioto County from at least 1860-1900. He seems to have "appeared" in Nile Twp about 1860 with a wife and young child. All census records say Alexander was born in Kentucky abt 1836. I also found a marriage record for Alexander Cole to Esther A. Hall in 1857. The date seems right. I'd love to find Alexander and/or Hester/Esther's parents. The only thing close is 1850 census has a Thomas and Mary Cole with several children, one of whom is a male - "A.W." about the right age. Any information is greatly appreciated.

I am looking for information on the Hageman, Hagaman, or maybe even Hagemann family from the Portsmouth area. My mother-in-law's family came from there, but she has little information on her family. Her mother was Anna or Annie Hageman (sp?) and her middle name may have been Agusta (sp?). Her mother must have had a daughter out of wedlock and her name was Elizabeth Hageman (sp?). Her mother (Anna) moved to Cincinnati and the daughter lived with her for awhile, before returning to the Portsmouth area and then the girl lived with her grandmother. Anna Hageman was born about 1883. Elizabeth was born prior to 1912. Any help in locating the family origins would be appreciated.

Hello, I live in England and have been researching my fam tree for a few years. I have discovered that one of my English ancestors pops up on US 1880 Census. I would love to share my research with anyone who is reseaching the same common ancestor. Details are: Caleb Thompson (b1833 Eng) appears on US Census 1880 living Portsmouth, Scioto, Ohio with wife Mary A and children: John born 1860/1 Eng; Maria b1863/4 Eng; Alice b1865/6 Eng; Jerimiah (Jeremiah) b 1867 Eng; and Enoch b1869/70 Indiana. My Caleb Thompson is not on British 1881 Cen nor 1901 Census. As there was no death entry I checked US Census to see if he emigrated. I have checked today in London that there are children (named as above with same birth years) all born in the district that my Caleb is from: Stourbridge, Staffordshire, England. It seems that Caleb was attracted to Scioto area to migrate to because he came from an area in Staffordshire rich in Iron too. He was a 'Puddler of Iron' on British Census 1851 in Wordsley, Staffordshire. My line of the family descends from Caleb's sister, Sarah Ann who married Thomas Lowe. I would be grateful if you could put this message on your Genealogy Notice Board for members to view. Many thanks Mary of Kent

Twenty years ago my Grandfather, (Charles Hall) took my wife and I to the 1810 house. Last month we visited again. One of the things I wanted to see was a family tree I remember in the house (it was one of the things Grandpa Hall specifically pointed out). The current guides (they were incredibly helpful and friendly) had never seen the family tree (it was a single page, +/- 2'x3' and the Halls (including my Mom (Susanne Hall Ripka) were in the lower right corner of the tree. Does anyone have a copy of that document, or know where I should look for it? I have searched your site, and find nothing about Halls, Ruhlman (Grandma Hall Maiden name), or anyone else. Any help would be appreciated... my Mom is now gathering some information, but it's incomplete at best, and much of it anecdotal. Thanks for any help you can provide. Tom Ripka

He and his family are listed on page 117 of the 1820 census, Wayne Township. We believe he and his wife Amanda were married there in 1815. In later census he states he was born January 10, 1791 in Virginia (but came there from Kentucky)and she about May 1, 1795 in New York. Her maiden name is listed variously as Shaw, Swaar or Swan. Their children were Oratio, Sarah Jane, Burroughs W., Mary, Ann Eliza, Winney Ann, Asa A., John F., and Josiah C. Asa was a Methodist Episcopal minister in Ohio as well as in Illinois, and may have been ordained while in the Portsmouth area.

Correcting Previous Query: My Grandmother's name is Malinda Wright - she purchased over 46 acres in 1950 and recorded/filed a Will for which I am getting runaround/coverup and completely unprofessional behavior from the Scioto County Courthouse in my efforts to formalize clarification of who owns what and what arrangements have been legally or illegally entered into with Ohio Power & Light Company and Mead Paper Company regarding the land owned by 3 living siblings Haskell Wright, Vanjia Grinage and their brother living in Columbus Ohio. Live conversations with people answering Scioto Courthouse phone have resulted in their giving me false fax numbers and telling me that I cannot verify anything unless I come in person and telling me that some of their records have been "thrown away over the years" and that they don't know the addresses or contact numbers of those officials appropriately authorized to record, maintain or dispense Will and Land Transactions, etc. The e-mail addresses published as contact information by the Courthouse are non-working/outdated.

Had frustrating conversation with Scioto County Treasurer to whom my family paid taxes for land purchased by my grandmother, Malinda Grinage in or around 1950. I am trying to begin process of finding out exact coordinates of the parcel owned by her heirs, my uncles and mother Haskell Wright and Vanjia Grinage. Am unsuccessful getting anyone in the Scioto Courthouse to even identify appropriate contacts for getting recorded Will of Malinda WRight; identifying transactions involving Ohio Power & Light and Mead Paper Company over the years - they are dispatching erroneous/non-working fax numbers via the telephoene. The internet published contact information for the Commissioner and the Treasuer are incorrect. Pleae help me begin identifying the land my family owns. Thank you.

Seeking the parents of gggfthr Benjamin Harwood (1793-1848) and gggmthr Mary Ward Teter Harwood (1799-1884). History of Lower Scioto Valley in biography of ggfthr Daniel Henry Harwood stated that Benjamin was born in Maryland and Mary was a native of Ross County. They married on March 25, 1825 in Ross County and moved to Scioto County in 1844. I am looking for descendants of their children to see if any of them has information. Benjamin and Mary's children were: Ggfthr Daniel Henry Harwood (b.1828 d. 1919); Benjamin Franklin Harwood (b. 1830 d. 1881); Nancy E. Harwood Schoonover (b. abt 1843 d. 1916); George W. Harwood (b. 1845 d. date unknown); Lucinda Harwood (b. 1832 d. date unknown); Margaret Harwood (b. 1834 d. date unknown) and Jane Harwood (b. 1838 d. date unknown). I do not know what happened to Lucinda, Margaret or Jane. If they are listed in 1850 Census and not in 1870 or 1880 Census so I must guess that they either married or died before 1882.

I have been searching for the death record of my g grandfather, Constantine Evans, for a very long time with no luck at all. Constantine was listed in the 1900 Federal Census, Scioto County, Brush Creek Township. He was living with his son-in-law James Day. His birthdate was listed as June 1835, his age was 65. He was not listed in the 1910 census; therefore, I have to assume that he died sometime after the 1900 census was taken. If I could only locate a death record, it may give me some additional info that I need in order to go on with my family history. Could you possibly check your records for him? Thank you.
