Barbara Correll is my 2nd Great-grandmother. I would like to find out who her parents and siblings were. The only information I have on Barbara is copied below.
HISTORY OF LOWER SCIOTO VALLEY - PP. 564, 565
Elias LONG was the third child of Elias LONG Sr.. He was born in Philadelphia in the year the declaration of Independence was declared (1776). He matured mostly in his native city but when verging on manhood he went to Frederick Co. Va. and there married BARBARA CORRELL, a native of Rockingham Co. Va. but of German Extraction. During the first decade of the present century (19th) they moved to Ohio and settled near Chillocothe, where they remained until 1818, in which year they settled in the town of Jackson, Ohio. When coming to Jackson the town was embryonic, the country surrounding it in the wilds of nature, and the population very much in a minority with the wild Indians that roamed the dense unbroken forests. Here he opened a small store, one among the first in town, and thus continued until his death, which occurred in 1860, from an attack of Asiatic cholera. He had been apprenticed to the Hatter's trade when and followed that pursuit until coming to Jackson. He was of elastic step and activity, having lived to the age of eighty-four years, and accomplished a great deal of good through life, in which his honor and integrity were unquestioned, and he died an esteemed citizen of Jackson. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, to which he zealously adhered for many years. He also was an ardent member of the Masonic fraternity, possessed with liberality, charity, and benevolence. At the time of his death he had been a widower several years. He and his wife had six children.
