After moving to Ohio five years ago (as a third-generation Californian), I was pleasantly surprised to learn that I had Ohio ancestors back to the 1830s; in fact, the Kirtland in your list of names was a forebear of a woman who married into my family. It was also an eye-opener to learn that at one time Ohio was "the West"; something that I must have missed in school.<br />For any other Buckeyes (or their descendants) here: any Ohio folks with Cherry or Ketchum in their trees? We might be cousins! And will I see any of you at the Ohio Geneaology Convention next weekend in Cincinnati?Rob'thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14912152363748830870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533717770805440813.post-28555588949570709522013-04-16T15:24:22.128-07:002013-04-16T15:24:22.128-07:00Thanks for the wonderful post and pictures from Ha...Thanks for the wonderful post and pictures from Hamilton.

This information ought to help a lot of people in Ohio. I don't see any of my surnames, but this certainly looks like a list of mostly English names to me. So many of my ancestors are turning out to be English that I'm getting used to the variations.Mariann Reganhttp://mariannsregan.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533717770805440813.post-40201685247125822402013-04-15T09:52:40.521-07:002013-04-15T09:52:40.521-07:00Mom just wrote me that she didn't babysit Patt...Mom just wrote me that she didn't babysit Patton's grandchildren, she played with them.

Harold is still in Hamilton, and some of my cousins are on the Fire Dept. All the Allen brothers (five of them) used to play baseball on the same team in the 50s and 60s. Do you remember Allen Oil?

My mother actually grew up in Marblehead, and moved to Hamilton in 1950 after she and my father married. We lived on Cutler Road, on the edge of the Bradford estate. (now Donovan.) My brother and I were born there and attended school in Hamilton. I'm trying to remember if I knew any Allens. Did any of her siblings stay in Hamilton and have children there? I have all those town reports from 1950 to 2004 when my Mom passed away. Do you know when that reenactment happened? I wonder if it is in one of the reports.

Maybe our Moms went to high school together? Her maiden name was Allen, and there were seven siblings. She knew half the town in the 1940 census schedule. She used to babysit for Gen. Patton's grandchildren.

One of the most peaceful and well-kept cemeteries I have visited. I know we've talked about having this in common, but it was good to see the story. I forget which year, but there was a re-enactment of that journey by some local townspeople, I think of my parent's generation. My next door neighbor who was a Smith, was related to Dodges. I know he participated. Perhaps your mother mentioned it. It would have been in the 50's or 60's. As a child without a clear sense of history timelines, the covered wagon story always kind of confused me. How could we have Gen'l Patton's tank in the park downtown, and then a picture of a covered wagon, by the church?!AncestryInkhttp://ancestryink.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533717770805440813.post-77959936202663361102013-04-15T05:41:58.543-07:002013-04-15T05:41:58.543-07:00Heather, thanks for writing about my direct ancest...Heather, thanks for writing about my direct ancestor, Manasseh Cutler, my 4th great-grandfather.

I do not know if I am a descendant or relative of any of these pioneers, but several surnames are included in my genealogy: Mason, Miller, Moulton and Wells.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139639019457759712noreply@blogger.com
