Descendants of Isaac Lemasters (1795-1841)

Cousin bait through this blog may have paid off again, as I was contacted by someone researching the family of Jacob LeMasters (1832-1905), who they believe is the son of Isaac Lemasters (1795-1841).


Isaac Lemasters (1795-1841) was the son of Jacob and Hannah (________) Lemasters, my paternal 4x great-grandparents.


Isaac was born in Virginia and married Hannah Elizabeth COLEMAN on November 21, 1821 in Shelby County, Ohio.  They had 3 children: Jacob (born circa 1832), Hannah (born circa 1835) and Isaac (born 1837).  So far, I'm only aware of descendants of Isaac.  To find descendants of Jacob would be a great connection to make.


After Isaac's death in 1841 (about January 11) in Allen County, Ohio, the widow Hannah married John B. LOCKHART on July 1, 1841 in Allen County, Ohio.  Together they had three children : Loretta (born circa 1841), James W., and Emeline (born circa 1849).


I've found them in the 1850 census of Union Township, Auglaize County, Ohio, but have not researched them any further.


According to my correspondent, descendants of the family ended up in the Springfield, Illinois area.

The Isaac LEMASTERS family was found in the 1900 and 1910 census of Madison Twp., Jasper Co., MO. Isaac was the son of Isaac and Elizabeth (COLEMAN) LEMASTERS, and was my 1st cousin 4 times removed.

Issac was a farmer who owned his home free of mortgage in the 1900 census. He was born April 1837 in Ohio and had been married to wife Sarah for 39 years. Sarah was born June 1840 in Ohio and was the mother of 10 children, all of whom were still living in 1900. Two of their sons, Clinton and Clifford, were living at home in the 1900 census. There was also a boarder in the household, a Pearl McLANE, aged 10 years old, born in Iowa. No relationship that I'm aware of to this family.

In the 1910 census, Isaac and Sarah were living with son Clifford, his wife Reable, and their granddaughter, Geneva. Geneva was just 3 months old at the time of the census.
