127 Family legend has both John Carl and Louisa arriving (separately) in 1867, and being married in 1872. No supporting documentation has ever been found.

In September 2009, I located his 1889 passport application that verified his immigration information. He traveled on the Westphalia from Hamburg.

In the passport application, John says he immigrated on or about 28 Aug 1867. The Westphalia wasn't launched until 1868. There is a passenger listing on the maiden voyage arriving 28 Sep 1868 for Johann Müller, age 22. I think that's the right person.

FURMAN STEWART, a successful farmer of Washington Township, who is carrying on operations on an excellent tract of 120 acres, was born on his present property in Washington Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, January 27, 1876, and is a son of William C. and Mary (Stanley) Stewart.
William M. Stewart, the grandfather of Furman, married Rebecca Jane McCall, who was a daughter of Samuel McCall, of Donegal Township, and they had the following children: Samuel M., died in young manhood; John, died when young; Nancy Jane, deceased; William C.; Anna Eliza, married Reuben Heckathorn, of Venango County; Wilson McCall married (first) Sarah Day, daughter of John Day, and (second), Mary Johnce, daughter of Hiram Johnce; and Louisa M., maried Joseph Campbell, of Concord Township.
William C. Stewart was married to Mary Stanley, who was a daughter of Andrew Stanley, of Lawrence County. Mr. Stanley married Elizabeth Heckathorn, daughter of John Heckathorn, a cabinet maker, and they had the following children: John, married Barbara C. Fox, daughter of Michael Fox; Sarah, married Peter Young, of Slippery Rock Township, Lawrence County; Elizabeth, married Mark Mencer, of Indiana County; Ann, married Milton L. McCormick, of Slippery Rock Township; Mary; Jane, who married George Smith of Slippery Rock Township, died in Lawrence County, Pennsyvlania; Andrew, married Isabella Wood, daughter of Gidean Wood of Lawrence County; Rachel; and Cephas, who married Elizabeth Hunt, daughter of James Hunt of Lawrence County.

163 Harold Mueller originally recorded a DOB of "about 1755." This can't be correct, as the only two children who survived the Fort Seybert massacre were Mary and Adam. There were three others who "died among the Indians," though their names are lost to history.

Margaret (Margretha) returned to Virginia in the summer of 1761 and probably died in early 1768. That puts Michael Jr's birth between 1761 and 1768. 
MALLOW, Michael (I1464)
 
164 Harold's Oct 1940 draft card lists her as his wife. She's also listed as his wife in the 1940 census. A preliminary search regarding Esther suggests she was married prior to marrying Harold, possibly to John L Caughlin (see 1930 Galveston Census). Family F630

Nelson lived and spent his last days in Scioto County, Ohio, very near the McCall families. There was a lot of timber on his place. It is not known if his property was in his family or if he had purchased it himself.
Nelson is buried in Remby Cemetery, Ohio, near the parents of Hazel.

The informant for the death certificate was Frank Weethee, but there is no information as to his relationship to Hannah. VAN SICKLE, Hannah (I965)
 
177 Her obituary mentions a son, William Bryant, and a grandson, Robert Bryant. It also lists three Fulton stepsons and two brothers: Robert and Thomas. There's no direct mention of her first husband.  HIGHLY, Mary (I1800)
 
178 Her U.S., Social Security Applications and Claims Index, 1936-2007 entry has the following note:
“Nov 1936: Name listed as MERLE WILSON PERRY; Aug 1938: Name listed as MERLE WILSON WAGNER; Jun 1952: Name listed as MERLE FAY; Jan 1970: Name listed as MERLE FAY EDWARDS; 04 Nov 1976: Name listed as MERLE EDWARDS; : Name listed as MERLE WILSON FAY.”

She's listed as "Mrs. Merle Wagner" on her 1941 marriage license to William Fay. I'm not sure the dates on the SSA note will match up to previous marriages, but the names give research clues. 
WILSON, Merle (I1821)
 
179 Hillery Whittington had married Laura Mae McCall, daughter of Samuel James McCall and Dorothy Caroline Curry. Laura Mae was born in Mercer County, Pennsylvania in 1875.

I, Howard Barnhart, received a copy of the Vandalla Historical Society magazine last month. The feature article was on the Courtney contract to cut 35000 acres of timber in Putnam County, West Virginia. The contract was dated 1890. Mr. Courtney lived in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. He was a neighbor of Samuel's, and sure enough Sylvan (Whittington) tells me, this is the reason Samuel went to West Virginia in 1890. He took with him five teams of draft horses and five of his sons. This is the reason his sons became scattered, two in Ohio, one in West Virginia and others returning to Butler 1894/5 when the contract was finished. At the time they were in West Virginia, Dorothy Caroline (Curry) Samuel's wife, was the camp cook at one of the camps, her daughter was a cooks helper, and since Hillery lived in this area, he was a timber cutter. Hence they met and married.

He also showed me a watch he had, given to him by his grandmother, Dorothy Caroline, at age 30 with quite a story, which probably has quite a bit of truth in it. It is an Illinois Railroad watch, made in Springfield, Illinois, and inside the back cover is six RR inspection marks, or time inspection marks placed by a railroad inspector when working for a railroad. Dorothy Caroline was one of six teenagers (she was born 1843) who was canvassing for Abraham Lincoln. (all girls) At one time, they were working in a city, when a carnival or small circus came to location. The girls ask Lincoln for the afternoon and evening off to attend the event. He refused, advising them they must continue their canvassing task, but that he would remember this event. After the election, he came with six of these watches and presented a watch to each girl. Removing the cover, or rear, the name "A Lincoln" is engraved on the back plate just above the serial number, and watch makers name. Just near the rim is the six RR inspection marks. In the center of the back is the initials "E J C" put in by hand. Since Dorothy Caroline's father was David Curry, and she had no brothers with such initials, the watch may have been carried by a nephew. She had a John and a James Curry nephews.

180 His death certificate reports the place of death as "Out of State Hospital;" it was likely a Parkersburg, WV hospital. BARNETT, Nile O (I839)
 
181 His mother was an Indian captive at the time, having been captured during the Fort Seybert Massacre in April 1758. She apparently did not know she was pregnant at the time. There is a claim he was born near modern-day Portsmouth. According to a 1935 Lima News article, he was taken "to a camp on the west side of the Scioto river, but north of the Ohio river and opposite of where Portsmouth is now located." But in his application for a Revolutionary War Pension, Henry claimed he was born "somewhere on the Mississippi River in 1759."

His date of birth is calculated from his date of death and age as listed on his headstone.

Despite claims elsewhere, yDNA analysis has shown no possible Native American paternity for Henry.

182 His name is spelled "Garritson" in this entry, and for the next 3 years. GARRISON, Charles Emory (I257)
 
183 His obituary also mentions half-brothers Richard and David Wallace, as well as membership in Humboldt Masons Lodge. He was a retired machine operator at Lattimer-Stevens.

QRYTEXT: Looking for Arthur Garrison. Middle name might have been Foster. Parents - Charles Emory Garrison and Minnie Almary Weethee. Arthur lived in Franklin County and died in 1967. Worked for Lattimer Stevens on Marion Road. Looking for any next of kin. All help appreciated. Thanks, Sheryl.

184 His place of birth has been listed as Canada, Missouri, and Massachusetts in various family trees and Find-A-Grave. I have yet to find a confirmed source for any of these places. The 1870 Census is the most commonly cited source, but it's not clear if the enumerator wrote "Ma" or "Mo" for the place of birth.

The 1860 US Census for Galveston lists a 15-year-old J McKee from Missouri. The enumerator here wrote "Mass" and "Mo," making it clear this person is from Missouri. His age of 15 in this census would be consistent with a DOB of 1846.

The 1922 death certificate for his daughter Clara McKee (Fay) lists her father's birthplace as Scotland. 
MCKEE, James E. (I189)
 
185 His SS-5 says he was born in St Louis. For the 1940 US Census, his father reported he was born in Texas. CAHAL, Thomas Martin (I1750)
 
186 His tombstone gives a DOB of 12 Jul 1876. The death certificate records the DOB as 10 Jul 1878. BOCK, Guido Christopher (I25)

191 I am not certain that this census record is for the same Louis DIEFENBACH. The immigration years are different (1910 shows 1890; 1920 shows 1893), and the ages are off (1910 shows him to be born about 1850, and age 60; 1920 shows brith about 1857 and age 63). The Census Wards are different, too, but the 1910 shows him living with Carl Joseph DIEFENBACH, and the 1920 Census shows Louis and Margaretha living in their own home by themselves. I need to see the actual census images. Family F324
 
192 I believe Hannah and Eusebius were divorced in late 1900 or early 1901. The 1899 - 1900 has no entries for Hannah, only Eusebius. The 1900 - 1901 edition has entries for Hannah and Eusebius as well as a William Weethee with tow addresses for the three of them. Eusebius is living as a boarder at the same address listed for Charles Garrison. Hannah and William are living at 17 1/2 Levee, she as the homeowner and he as a boarder. WEETHEE, Eusebius Russell (I964)
 
193 I couldn’t figure out who these kids were for the longest time. They are the daughters of Frederick Andrew and Alice Baldinger, so E. E.’s granddaughters. Rosslyn is actually Alice Rosslyn. The girls were born in 1912 and 1914 (Lois), so would have been 12 and 10 for the trip to see their uncle and cousins. They would have met Uncle Ed (then 2) and Aunt Gayle (10 months). BALDINGER, Edward Emile (I186)
 
194 I had been under the impression based on documents from Graumlich Funeral Home for Carl Diefenbach that Violet's last name was LUBAWSKI, but this obit for her sister shows it to be LUSBASKI. Other records (1930 Census for Summit County, OH) show LUBASKI. Source (S25)

197 I have her name as Clare, probably from Mary. But the birth record at FHL (from Ohio) has it as Clarie. WILLIAMS, Clare (I268)

200 I suspect that the Samuel Fulton named in the 1790 Census is actually the father of Samuel 1773-1850. The 1790 and 1800 censuses only collected the name of the head of the household, and Samuel would have been 17 then. There were 2 males over 16 in the household, 1 under 16, and 4 females. I think it's highly unlikely that a boy of 17 would be in charge of 6 other people.  FULTON, Samuel (I1788)
