Lot PRESTON 1790 CT
I have a “brick wall”.Her name was Sarah PRESTON.She was born probably in
Talmadge Township, Summit County, Ohio in 1822.She married Sanford Rockwell
BISSELL in Summit County in 1853.He was a minister or “preacher”.
They travelled to Indiana and toMichigan, andto Effingham, Illinois, where they
startedthe First Presbyterian Church in 1869.
She died in Effingham in 1887.I have reports her parents were Lot (or Lott) PRESTON
and Sally CLARK.Sally was born in Connecticut about 1796.The 1850 U S census
ofSummit County,Ohio lists Sally and 3 of her children.One was Sarah.Lot probably
had died, since he was not listed.I suspect he was born in Connecticut about 1790.
Sanford and Sarah were my g-grandparents.

Can anyone come up with parents for Lot?One possibility is a PRESTON who married
a woman with the surname LOTT.I also would like to trace Sally's family.
