Hi Julie,
Foundsome of my notes quicker than I thought. lol
The assumption is that Sarah Hedger is a cousin to the Hedger boys, because I have found no evidence yet to show a Sarah Hedger being born to Zachariah Hedger..
From the 1900 census it says that Harriett had 10 kids but only 5 were still living at that time..
I have 8 of the 10 names...Alice 1852, Margaret 1854, Louisa 1855, Henry 1858, Albert 1860, John H. 1865, Edward W. 1867 and Aaron S. 1869....
Now I recently found a Sarah A, Otten buried at Flagg Springs Cemetery and it shows her death at 1855, so John & Sarah must have divorced sometime around btwn 1850-1851, their daughter Mary E. Otten is buried next to Sarah and it shows she died on 05/17/1851 at 1 yr 5 m 3 d old...
In the 1910 census I found the following children of John & Harriett..in Campbell Co., KY
Aaron in Gubser Mill with Ida Mar (?) & 3 kids
Albert in Bellvue 2nd marriage - wife Lydia (?)
John in California -widow- w/ step daughter Nellie (Dickens?)
Edward in Washington Clermont Co., OH with wife Callie (?) and 3 kids . Census says she had 6 kids but only 3 were still living..
Then theres a Margaret A. Otten b/1859 that's in Newport but I don't know if this would be Marageret or maybe another one of their children or maybe a couisn????
That's were my notes end for right now....Does any of this sound familiar??Would love to hear more about your family line...
