The family trees on Ancestry show her as Mary Louisa Couchat from
Alsace-Lorraine, France B: 19 May 1831.

My Louise Couchot was born 19 May 1830. Coincidence? I don't think so!

I wish I could find (Jean?) Pierre Couchot and Xavier Couchot with some
certainty in the Highland area. That would seal it. There's a Peter Couchot in
Troy, NY who "might" be Pierre - having come from France in 1853 or 1857 or
maybe 1840 depending on the source. But I'd think they would have all come
together.

Prof. Alzo Rosselot of Otterbein College is supposed to have tracked down the
entire family and put it into a book form. That might help answer the question.

I believe I stumbled upon an interesting connection while researching my
Galliet/Galliett family tree that might be useful to someone who is trying to
trace the Rosselott family of Highland County. If anyone can fill in more
information, please do!

Recently, the Territory of Belfort, France released their microfilmed records in
digital form at http://www.archives.cg90.fr/ They even have detailed census
records every 5 years for villages like Bourogne which trace the families really
well starting in 1836 (for Bourogne). They also have the civil records showing
births, deaths, marriages and publications of marriages. I'm told they have
military records as well. This makes things soooo much easier than going to a
local Family History Library and staring at microfilms.

So I started to trace all the descendants of my Galliet family and started with
the first one I came across in 1836 - Marie Galliett who married Xavier Couchot
in 1833. She was a sister of my GGGrandfather Louis Galliet of Mowrystown. Alas,
she had a daughter out of wedlock before marriage in 1830 - Louise - who was
adopted by Xavier.

I followed the family in each census. In 1849, 13-year old Marie Couchot
apparently came to the US with Louis Galliet. (a real head scratcher there.) She
vanished from the Bourogne census at that time and a Mary "Couch" or "Cossot"
showed up living with Louis Galliet in Mowrystown in 1850. It appears she
married a Francoise Antoine in Highland County about 1855.

Then I noticed 3 other children of Marie (Galliet) Couchot vanished from the
Bourogne census after 1851. lisa90.org had no record of them getting a passport
at Colmar like so many others had done. Louise was 23, Pierre was 19 and Xavier
Couchot was only 17. I thought I'd check Ancestry to see if they were on a ship
list and voila! There they all were in 1853!

The question now was, where did they go after they arrived in the US? Most
likely they'd go to their uncle Louis Galliet's place in Mowrystown where their
sister already lived. If not there, to another uncle - Jean Pierre Gaillet - in
Stark County. I was stuck for a while. Finally, I checked the excellent website
at http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#start

It didn't show any of them directly, but DID show that a Louisa/Louise Couchot
was the mother of several members of the Rosselott family - a fairly prominent
French family near Mowrystown. Looking at the 1860 census shows her and the
Rosselotts living amid the Euverard family in Clay Township near Mowrystown.

My question is - has anyone else made this connection? Does anyone have more
conclusive information? I'm still researching the family. Oddly, I already had
the Rosselott family in my tree, so now I'll have to be careful to link the two
branches together.

There are some Lawwill's on Find a Grave.  Quite a few are buried in Brown
County also which is the neighboring county.  Also you might try Rootsweb.  It
has quite a few on it.  Sorry I didn't have time to look for any specific names.

Is this the same family with just a different spelling? One of the DeHass family
was in a recent obit in the Highland Sun, 91-year old Lyda Belle DeHass.

http://thehighlandsun.com/main.asp?SectionID=17&SubSectionID=66&ArticleID=705&TM\
=7517.057

I could swear the DeHaas family from the same area is related to my family.

http://thehighlandsun.com/main.asp?SectionID=17&SubSectionID=66&ArticleID=530

Couldn't find him in my tree, he's too "young", but I'm sure he's related to the
Edgington family I'm related to. Born 8 Sep 1935.

I managed to find death certificates for both at the site I mentioned earlier.

Edward died 21 Nov 1939, B: 16 Jul 1866
Sadora died 4 Jun 1930, B: 2 Oct 1869

If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask. A Euverard family history is still here in the file section. (it may be missing a page from the computer printout of the family tree... let me know and I can supply that)

You should be able to find her death certificate at
http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/

I haven't traced her father's line very far, but her mother's family - the
Euverard or Euvrard family has been traced way back in France. Either see
Rootsweb (free) for info on that family, or Ancestry ($) for the Galliett family
tree.

I don't show any children for them, but it's possible they had some. Apparently
she died shortly after the 1930 census.

Sedora was a daughter of Charles Wesley McVey but have no other information.

I will check next Tuesday when I go to the library in Columbus and let you know what I find.

Subject: [HighlandCountyResearchers] Marriage and Death Records of Highland County, Ohio

 

Is there anyone who has access to 'Marriage Records of Highland County, Ohio, 1805-1880" by David N. McBride

 

and/or "Cemetery Inscriptions of Highland County, Ohio", by the same author?

 

 

If so, would it be possible for you to do a lookup for (1) Hannah Meneely, born February 4, 1808 in Troy, New York; and (2) her sister Ann Meneely, born March 24, 1810 in Troy, New York.

 

I know they lived with their parents (John and Isabella Meneely) in Highland County and family members attended the First Presbyterian Church in Greenfield.  I have a reference to Hannah and her mother being members of this church in 1829, and another sister Margaret was married in 1830 in Greenfield.  The family left Highland County between 1840 and 1844 for Indiana.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Larry Meneely

Barlar@...

The surname MENEELY is not in the index of "Cemetery Inscriptions of Highland County, Ohio" by David and Jane McBride so there is no reference to this name in this book nor do is see this surname in  "Marriage Records of Highland County, Ohio" by David and Jane McBride

Could there possibly be another spelling?

Noted the request and wondered if the spelling may have been different later.  In the 1850 census for White Oak Twp., HC we have a John McNealy (spelled in deeds as McNeely) age 27 born in Ohio, wife Mary A. age 25 born Ohio and Sarah S. age 3, born in Ohio.  Next door we have George age 72, a farmer born in Va, Elizabeth wife age 69 born in Ky, Sarah age 38 born in Ky, and Joseph age 20 born in Ohio.   You can rule them in or out of your family line being searched.  Jerry E.

I think the Ashmore that you are looking for is Bertie Ashmore Fittro who is
buried in New Market Baptist Cemetery.

Her Obituary is here:
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ohcnewma/fittro_bertie.jpg

And her death certificate is:

Death Certificate for Charles can be found:

I have this family in the New Market Community GEDCOM project on World Connect.
