Carey H. Gilliland Family - Hamilton Co., OH

Today I sourced the census record for the Carey H. Gilliland family in the 1860 census of Hamilton Co., OH. Carey married my 3rd-great grandaunt Elizabeth W. Lambertson.

The census taker liked to use initials instead of names, as Carey is 'C.H.' and Elizabeth is 'E.W.' on this particular census. Elizabeth died October 11, 1860, so this was the last census record for her. I have not yet tracked Carey and the children beyond the 1860 census to find out where else they appeared.

Carey H. GILLILAND b. ca. 1816 Red Oak, Brown Co., OH.,d. after 1860 census, m. October 15, 1839 Butler Co., OH to Elizabeth W. LAMBERTSON. Elizabeth b. June 7, 1823 Sussex Co., NJ., d. October 11, 1860 Ohio (prob. Hamilton Co.)

August Gegenheimer Family - Jay Co., IN

Today I sourced the census data for the August Gegenheimer family in Jay Co., IN for the 1900-1920 census. August married my 2nd-great aunt Sarah C. Haley. In 1900 and 1910 he was living in Wabash Twp. but by 1920 they had moved to Wayne Twp. in Jay County.

August was a farmer and immigrated from Germany in either 1838 or 1858, depending on the census year. I tend to believe it was the 1838 year. Sarah's mother is listed as being born in Ohio on two census years, and then in Pennsylvania on the third. Sarah is the mother of 10 children, all living by the time of the 1910 census, but so far I only have the names of five in my database.

There is much more to discover about this family - not only the names of 5 children, but whether or not August was a Civil War vet. The family moved to Indiana before 1885, so they may be in the 1880 census either in Indiana or Ohio.

August Gegenheimer b. November 1842 Germany, d. after 1920 census, m. ca. 1865 to Sarah C. HALEY. Sarah C. Haley b. November 1845 Ohio, d. after 1920 census.

Thomas A. Fox Family - Madison Co., IN

Today I sourced the census records I found for the Thomas A. Fox family of Madison Co., IN. Thomas was married to my 2nd great-aunt, Daisy L. Wright. I discovered a few interesting facts that I didn't know previously by looking at the census records in 1900 & 1910 in Van Buren & Pipe Creek Twps., respectively, of Madison Co., IN.

First off, Thomas' name was not Thompson, as I originally had in my notes. In the 1900 census, he states both of his parents were born in North Carolina - in 1910, his father is born in Indiana and his mother was from North Carolina. Also, one daughter appears as Helen L. in the 1900 census and then as Laura H. in the 1910 census.

I do not have a record yet of the family in the 1920 census. By 1930, Daisy is a widow, so Thomas must have died between 1910-1930, probably in Madison Co., IN.

Thomas A. FOX b. September 1869 Indiana, d. bet. 1910-1930 prob. Madison Co., IN., m. September 27, 1890 Madison Co., IN., to Daisy L. WRIGHT. Daisy L. WRIGHT b. June 1873 Indiana, died after 1930 prob. Madison Co., IN.

Children of Thomas A. and Daisy L. (Wright) Fox :
i. Helen Laura Fox b. June 1892 Indiana
ii. Hazel M. Fox b. November 1893 Indiana
iii. Nellie M. Fox b. February 1895 Indiana
iv. Joseph J. Fox b. December 1896 Indiana

Judson Jarrett

Found some possible new ancestry information for my daughter's Jarrett line last night online.

1880 Census of Jefferson Twp., Fayette Co., IA shows Katie Jarrett, age 14, living in the household of Judson Jarrett, age 72, born Virginia. The names of the other children line up perfectly with what I had on Kate Jarrett who married Henry Miguet in Buchanan Co., IA.

Later I found information on Judson Jarrett family in the 1856 state census of Iowa in Fayette Co., IA, and in 1850 census in Koscuisko Co., IN. The Iowa WPA cemetery database has Judson buried June 13, 1881 in Fayette Co., IA.

Still working on the putting the details together to try and tie this line into what I already have.

Kate Jarrett and Henry Miguet were married December 23, 1883 in Buchanan Co., IA. Their son, Frank Field Miguet, was my daughter's 2nd-great grandfather.
