Mark was kind enough to send me his information. I am descended from Eleanor
Bayes (1804) who married Thomas McKibbin, Jr.
(1806), the son of Thomas McKibbin (1777
in Belfast, NI) and Jane Irvine McKibbin
(born in Scotland). I find a record of
Eleanor's father Thomas Bayes in Lima,
Ohio, living close to Thomas McKibbin, Jr.
I also find a Thomas Bayes in Dedham, MA
in the 1600s.
My line is as follows.
Thomas McKibbin, Jr.,and Eleanor Bayes had
several children. Their sons were Thomas III, Robert Irvine (1839), and William.
Their daughters were Mary, who married a
cousin named Thomas M. McKibbin; Jane, who
married William Garman; Margaret, who
married a GUNN, and Catherine. The family
lived in or around Lima, Ohio for some time,
then moved to Wauseon, Ohio. My line comes
from Robert Irvine. Robert married Nancy
FAIRCHILD, who was born in Oswego, NY,
and they moved to Beaverton, MI after the
Civil War. Robert and Nancy had four
children: Eunice, who married Daniel
Mitchell and had six sons; Millicent,
who married Claude Smith and had no children;
Cyrus Owen, who married Grace Montgomery
and had two children, Harold (1911) and
Leona (1908). Harold had one daughter
named Patricia, and Leona had one son
named Larry Talmadge, last known to be
living in California. Royal "Roy" Bird
McKibbin, who was born in 1878, was my
grandfather. He was in the marines and
fought in the Spanish American war. He
married Beatrice Hughes from Beaverton,MI
and they had two children: Juanita McKibbin
Colgan (1908-1994) and Hugh Robert McKibbin,
(1911)who graduated from the United States
Naval Academy at Annapolis and who was a
career naval aviator. He now lives with
his wife, Eleanor Flanagan McKibbin, in
Virginia. They had two children: 1LT
Hugh Robert Mckibbin, Jr., who was a young
West Pointer killed-in-action in Vietnam,
and Marilyn , who is married to
a West Pointer and has three children:
James, Cynthia and Robert.
I would be interested in hearing from any
person who might be able to connect our
ancestry to the Thomas Bayes in Dedham,
Massachusetts in the 1600s. The FAIRCHILD
line goes back to 1638 in CT, so it is
possible the BAYES line does too. I have
found a J.H. Bayes listed in a book on the
early history of Columbus, Ohio, and suspect
it may be Jewel Bayes, but I am not sure.
Any help would be appreciated.
