Calling Ohio Blains.A group of family members is currently attempting to round up lost cousins and genealogists to form a collaborative research (and reunion) effort for our family.If you have an Ohio Blain ancestor, there’s a very good chance you fit in our puzzle somewhere.Please, take a look at the extensive information below, and drop us an email if you’d like to join our group to see what we’ve uncovered so far.
We've learned much, including the children's names of our ancestors Alam and Catherine (Reed Blain).Their children (11) were born in NJ, PA and OH.Evidence shows most of these eleven children married and raised children in and around Muskingum, OH as their parents lived there for several years.Children of Alam and Catherine:
1.Joseph Blain, b NJ 02 May 1788, d 02 Jun 1883.
2.Catherine Blain
3. John Blain
4. William Blain
5. Luke Blain
6. Mary (Polly) Blain
7. George Blain
8. Jacob Blain, b NJ 08 Aug 1798, d 21 Jun 1875 in Licking Co., OH
9. Elizabeth Blain
10. Anna Blain, b PA, abt 1799, m Thomas Martin 24 Dec 1821 Muskingum Co., OH
11. Abraham W. Blain
12. Elam Blain, b Luzerne Co., PA, 15 May 1807, m Sarah Cockrell, resided Delaware Co., OH, d 26 Dec 1887.
(Alam also had a possible brothers in NJ, (Benjamin and John.Joseph was probably the father.)All resided, at one time, in Hunterdon Co., NJ.)
So far, we have found offspring for Elam, Anna, and Luke.
Anna married Thomas Martin in MusCo, and later moved to Fulton Co., IL to raise their ten children:Vandorous Martin b MusCo 18 Aug 1820 m Diana Beaman; Susan Martin b 1836, m Rools Davis, Caroline Martin b 1845 FulCo IL m Joe Atkins; Maranda Martin b 22 Mar 1834 FulCo, m Williams; Margaret Marint b 1839; Alvio Martin; Jeff Martin; Florence Martin; Tiltha Martin; and Bill Martin.
Elam (2) married Sarah Cockrell and later moved with his parents to Harlem Tp, DelCo, OH.He would also spend some time in Paulding Co, many of his children lived there, and he was eventually buried there.Elam and Sarah had 9 (living) children: Edward Cockrell Blain, Solomon (m Susannah Stanley), Catherine, Matilda, Elam (m Rachel Stanley, son Charles Blain), Emaline (m Beebe Lewis), Lenora, Roda (m Milton Dixon), Delilah.
Solomon Blain had 7 children with wife Susannah, all raised in PauCo, OH.Children: Mary (m Martin Craven), Benjamin (m Idabell Ferguson), Joseph (m Bell), Sarah (Sade) (m Clinton Ewers), Will, Naome, Lenora.
Please, give us an email if you believe you fit in our tree.Our family moved west and were truly pioneers.Unfortunately, that left our family scattered and loose knit.If you’d like to recover lost family, please, join our group of “lost cousins” by emailing [email protected] or visit our page on the web at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OhioBlains/http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OhioBlains/.
