They divorced sometime between 1906 and 1909. Lottie then married Frank L. HOYT, who adopted George. I am looking for any information on Albert BIEDER who would be my biological Great Grandfather.

GRAHAM, HEADLEY, LIPPS, URIE posted by Vicki L. Goff on Saturday, April 14, 2001
I'm looking for my great-grandfather by the name of Casper Lymon Graham. I don't think he ever married my great-grandmother, who was Margaret Lucy Headley. They had a daughter named Georgeanna Graham, who was born on April 4, 1915 in East Liverpool, Columbiana County, Ohio. My mother told me that she thought she remembered Casper dying in Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio. Other than his name and a guess of where he died, we have no other information on him. Also, it's believed that he may have been a traveling salesman. Does anyone have any information that would help us in our seach??

EMES, JUDD, REDDIN, SCOTT posted by Elizabeth Judd on Friday, April 20, 2001
I am seeking information regarding Thomas Judd [1744-1820] his wife Mercy Scott[1750-1840]and one of his sons, Thomas Judd [1781-1851] his wife Polly Emes [1791-1832] their children Julia, Freeman, William, Thomas, Amanda, Lewis and Alfred Judd. I am specifically seeking information regard Alfred Judd. He owned a dry goods store in Smith's Landing, Ohio but I have been unable to find this place on a map. I think it has probably changed names since then. He married Eliza Reddin and his last known address was in Addystern, Ohio which I also can't find on the map. This is what is on the death certificate of Eliza in 1917. Her death was registered in Miami Township, Hamilton County Ohio. I have a very detailed genealogy with many references that go to the founding father of the Judd family in this country from 1633. Its the newer information that has been difficult to document and track down. Alfred was possibly in the Cuyahoga County region between 1840-1850.

I am looking for the records of a Phillips who was married to Susan Brown around 1823. They had children named Saba, George, Joseph, John Ross born between 1827 and 1838 born in Cuyahoga Co. Ohio. The father may have been Jacob Phillips from Jennings Co. Ind. or Bartholomew Co. Ind. Does anyone have any records that establishes that Jacob Phillips in fact was the father of these children.

COSGRAY, COSGROVE, FINCH posted by Cindi Meyer on Saturday, April 21, 2001

Married in 1811, they would have been 50-70 years old when they died.
