What appears to be Ezekiel's family, if the information is correct.
1.3.6Michael BLAW (bp.1770-1846), m1. _____ _____, m2.1822 Sybil HAYES.He was baptised at the Harlingen Dutch Reformed Church in Somerset Co. NJ.After his father's death, Michael chose David Covenhoven as his guardian.
He and his brother, Daniel, moved to Cayuga Co. NY between 1800 and 1810.By 1820 Michael had removed to Geauga Co. OH where he married his second wife.He served during the War of 1812 in Capt. George Buchanan's company (from Miami Co. OH) from May 5 to Aug 13, 1812.He was living in Geauga Co. in 1830, and in 1840 he was in Lake Co. OH which was newly formed from Geauga Co.He is buried at Perry Center Cemetery in Lake Co.
First marriage:
1.3.6.1* James L. BLUE, m.1823 Electa G. HOWE.
1.3.6.2Eleanor BLUE, m.1826 Amariah BARTHOLOMEW in Geauga Co. OH.They may have lived in Geneva, Ashtabula Co. OH.
1.3.6.3* Ezekiel BLUE (1801-1875), m.1828 Mary Sophronia HOWE (ca 1811-1868).
1.3.6.4* John BLUE (ca 1810-1841), m.1838 Nancy GRIFFIN (ca 1813-1844).
Second marriage:
1.3.6.5Daughter (b.182?), died before 1840.
Ezekiel BLUE (1801-1875), m.1828 Mary Sophronia HOWE (ca 1811-1868).He was born in NJ, OH or NY (conflicting census records), so his birthplace at this point is unknown.
Blue family connections to the Vanatta family and a possible Spurlock connection (see Burwell, child #1.5.8.3.8)
It may be possible to find a Hager family connection too, since they were in Cabell Co. by 1820.
1.5.8.3.Richard BLUE (ca1772-1859), m 1. Mary _____ (b.1775+), m 2.1848 Sarah CARR (ca 1791-1855).
He was born in VA, probably in Berkeley Co.He probably married his first wife in PA, for his marriage does not
appear in the Berkeley Co. records.In 1810 they were living in Beaver Co. PA, a county located on the Ohio River
in the extreme western part of the state.In ca 1807 they had two children born in PA; then in 1810, when his
second son was born, he was back in VA, probably the Brooke Co. area which then was adjacent to Beaver Co.They later returned to PA, for daughter Elizabeth was born there ca 1817.By 1820, Richard had moved his family
about 200 miles downriver to Barbourville, Cabell Co. VA.The census that year shows him with a wife and, possibly,
two sons and five daughters.He was engaged in farming.By 1830 he had moved further downriver to Butler Co. OH,
Union Twp. and by 1840 he had moved to Fairfield Twp. in the same county.His second marriage took place in Butler Co.,
and Sarah may have had a previous marriage, making her maiden surname unknown.The 1850 census of Butler Co.,
Fairfield Twp., gives his age as 78 and family, Sarah 60 and Mary E. 17.In 1854 Richard purchased 50 acres of land
in Section 19 of Loramie Twp., Shelby Co. OH.Richard and Sarah probably lived on this land, since she is buried in
Shelby Co., Loramie Twp., in the Wyatt Cemetery on Section 17.There are many Wyatts buried there, and thus her
surname may have been WYATT.Richard sold the 50 acres to James B. McKinney in 1858 and appears to have returned to Butler Co.The transaction was not completed by the time of Richard's death in February of 1859, so his execuror had to complete the transaction.Richard died intestate; the estate administrator filed his bond in Butler Co. on 26 March 1859.Papers filed by the executor in 1859-61 showed Richard's interest in the land in Shelby Co. OH.
In 1863 a court order named Richard's heirs as follows: Mary COLLINS, Mrs. R. BLUE, Mary E. HARSHMAN, Elizabeth KARR, Mary E. MILLER, Penelope ADAMS and Richard BLUE.A Martha RYLAND was also mentioned; she was probably his daughter.The location of Richard's grave is unknown to the compiler, however, it is most likely in Butler Co.
First marriage:
1.5.8.3.1Martha BLUE (b. bef.1804), m. bef.1830 _____RYLAND.Went to LA, had one boy and one girl.
1.5.8.3.2* Richard BLUE (ca 1807-1859), m.1833 Susannah VANATTA (b.ca 1802).
1.5.8.3.3* Mary BLUE (b.ca 1807), m.1845 Henry COLLINS (b.ca 1808).
1.5.8.3.4* Daniel Craig BLUE (1810-1852), m.1834 Catherine Ann VAN ATTA (b.ca 1818).
1.5.8.3.5Catherine BLUE, m. _____ COLE.Married in Indianapolis IN.She probably died before 1859 without issue, since no heirs are mentioned in the 1859 Shelby Co. OH probate record.
1.5.8.3.6* Elizabeth BLUE (b.ca 1817), m.1836 Guy A. CARR (b.ca 1815).
1.5.8.3.7* Isabella BLUE (d. bef.1850), m.1836 Elias S. PLEW (ca 1812-1888).
1.5.8.3.8* Burwell Spurlock BLUE (1821-1877), m.1849 Malvina Laura REVELEE (1833-1903).
Second marriage:No issue.
