I've been trying to find the date and place of death of my great grandfather for many years. He is William Andrew Duke, born 16 February 1852 in Xenia, Ohio, where he is listed in the 1860 census. By 1870 at age 18, he was a farm laborer living in the household of John Powlott.
John A. Brocas moved to Madison from Cincinnati. There were three daughters in his family: Caroline (married Josiah Boone, 5-17-1840), Laura (married Alexander Harper) and Mary Ann (married Zenas Bramwell, 4-11-1849). Much is known about Caroline but very little about Laura and nothing about Mary Ann. Any info on them would be appreciated. Reply to WD4IFN (at)Charter.Net.
Looking for information on the Frank W. Phillips & Hugh Smith Families. Hugh Smith was born around 1818 in Ireland, immigrated here in 1849 and was naturalized in 1854. I have two different names for wives Mary Brandon that I got from Ancestry.com and Julia Mullen which I got from this website. So not sure now if I have the right Hugh Smith. I have for Hugh's children as Thomas, Matthew, Anna, Mary, Catherine, Maggie. Catherine is my G.Grandmother who married Frank W. Phillips (who I will get to in a moment).
I am seeking additional information on Heinrich Schneider (born 1787), father of Teckla Lucht. In particular I am looking for his wife's name, date of marriage, where she died, section of Germany he emigrated from, immigration date, vessel, etc. I am also interested in learning if he had other children and if they resided in Madison or Jefferson County.
I recently found a website citing a source of G.A. Roberts writings of a letter speaking of his migration from Maryland into Indiana with two other families of which I'm a direct descendant. The families mentioned in these writings are of Thomas Leatherbury and Samuel Taylor Blodgett. If anyone may have these writings or know where I can find them please let me know. I am willing to share any information concerning any families I'm researching with other researchers.
