Hi Cathy,
I can tell that you are a true genealogist, one who cares about her own research, but also has a true desire to help others who are searching.
It is a little confusing to describe my dilemma. One of the few pictures I have from the past is one of Mary Reese of Plymouth, Indiana.I am reasonably certain that this Mary Reese was formerly Mary Logan of Hancock County, Ohio, where she married Josirus Reese.
So, I have put all of this together and tried to make it fit.Here is one of my concerns.At about the same time in NW Ohio, there was more than one Josirus (or Josiah) Reese.I am having a problem sorting them out.
Thank you for such a complete documentation.I have seen the article about the Josirus who died tragically after the altercation with another man.
I am coming at this research from out of left field.Mary Logan's mother was Susannah Shockey Logan Miller, a widow who married my gg-grandfather, John S. Miller.Together, they had two children, the last of which was my great-grandmother, Sarah Emma (Miller) Shoop.
Thanks, Cathy, for the followup.
