Dear Karen and Rachel; found your postings re: the Dewitts.
James, born 1790's and Millie Swett were married in Athens
Co., Ohio, in 1818-19,They had three issues,i'm sure of:,
Elizabeth, married Hartley Dains, went to Wisc. Catherine
married Hartley's Bro., Ebenezer W. They were my ggps.They are buried in the True Graveyard in Dover Twnsp., Athens Co., Ohio
Son John was scalped by a drunken Indian, long after this
terrible custom had ceased. I have no idea where he rests.
I have a nice picture of Seth Dains, son of Elizabeth
and Hartley. He is buried in the Colby Cemetery, Viroqua, Wisc.
