Projects

I'm working on some genealogy projects with my Yoho file.

Recent changes included:

  • adding some Cunningham and Wiley information
  • adding some Watson information
  • adding Goudy information
  • expanding the Henthorn, Higginbotham, and Ice information

There is more information available than I can process.  FindAGrave is proving to be a very useful resource.

If these surnames are of interest you may contact me for more details. I'm usually willing to exchange information provided the exchange is mutually beneficial.

Watson, David & Rebecca Bryan


I've been working on a project to extract the family of Sintha Watson and Isaac B. Wilson from one of my older genealogy files and add it to my Yoho genealogy where I store information about the family of David Watson and Rebecca Bryan. There were 584 people in the Isaac B. Wilson family.

The Watson family has links to: Henthorn, Yoho, and Wilson.  Watstons and Henthorns lived in Fayette Co., PA.  Later Watsons lived in Marion county, West Virginia and Noble, Guernsey and Tuscarawas counties in Ohio, and Sedgwick county, Kansas.

Hugh Jackson, Sr.

I completed extensive edits to my genealogy file for Hugh Jackson, Sr. and his descendants. The file has been moved to RootsMagic5, thus improving my ability to update the file and to share information with others.

There are 4283 individuals, 1450 marriages, 842 place names in the file.  A descendant report with notes and name and place name indices is 476-pages.

There were marriages to Henthorns, Watsons and Ganders in the Jackson family.

During the course of my edit project I discovered that some living members of the Utah Jackson family can trace their ancestry to Latter-day Saints patriarch, Orson Pratt.  Among many contributions made to the LDS by Orson Pratt was urging members to record their genealogy.  There is a very nice Pratt family website, created with RootsMagic. Orson Pratt and his brother, Parley P. Pratt were sons of Jared Pratt.  It was Parley who converted Orson at the age of nineteen.

Suter Family

This morning I uploaded a 90-page PDF genealogy about the ancestors of R.A. Suter (female) to the Marshall-Wetzel-WV folder on My Box.

The report includes some information about people in the following families: Suter, Parsons, Yoho, Watson, Wykert, Gorby and Baker.

Access to information in My Box is by invitation.

Henthorn, Watson, Higgninbotham

Note: This is an extraction from an Email message sent by Rick Higginbotham to Dick Henthorn both members of AOL on 13 Apr 1996. I have always been interested in adding to the information we have about the links between these three families. I am certain that the Henthorns, Watsons and Jennings lived near each other in Fayette county Pennsylvania. I am no longer in touch with Mr. Higginbotham.

I am indeed working on all three of those names. Henthorn is fairly new to me and I don't have much in the way of documentary evidence, but here is what I have at the moment (off the top of my head, so don't hold me to the dates).

James HENTHORN b. abt. 1702 and wife Mary had Elizabeth HENTHORN.

Elizabeth married George WATSON and they had Sarah.

Sarah married William HIGGINBOTHAM abt 1778.

Sarah and William's grandson, Haymond HIGGINBOTHAM, married Mary D. WATSON b. 1815 (I Have exact dates for these folks and even a picture of Mary). Haymond & Mary lived in what is now Wetzel Co., WV for a good deal of their lives, but all of the earlier folks came from PA area.

I do not know Mary D. WATSON's parentage, but assume it is the same group of WATSONs.

Note: Search for: Henthorn, Watson, Downard and Jennings. All lived in Fayette Co., PA, near present day Uniontown. There are marriage links between the families. Richard E. Henthorn

Henthorn Website - Google Group


Henthorn Website - Google Group

This link is to the Henthorn Website group on Google.

The Henthorn Website - Google Group is a place where people with common genealogy interests can post and share information.

I am interested in Hagstrom/Carlson, Henthorn(e) and Hinthorn(e) family history and genealogy. I also am interested in: Conger, Yoho, Watson, Jackson, Mozena.

There are many connections between the Henthorn, Yoho and Conger families in Monroe county, Ohio and in Wetzel and Marshall counties in West Virginia.

If you are interested in any of these surnames I encourage you to consider joining the Henthorn Website group. As of October 2009 there are only twelve members of the group and there has been very little posting.

Group members can post to the Discussions, and to the Files and Pages areas. In certain cases it may be necessary to coordinate with me in order to affect the post. So far I am the only person posting to Files or Pages. There has been some posting to the Discussions.

At this time membership in the group is by request or invitation only. This allows me to maintain control of who has access to the group.

If you are a current group member I hope you will consider posting more frequently. If you aren't a member I hope you will consider taking part.

Mr. Dickie

David Watson and his family came from Fayette Co., PA and settled on Gladys Branch of Seneca Creek, both of which now help to form the Seneca Lake [in Ohio]. They are both buried in the David Watson Cemetery, on their farm which is now known as the Patrick Bates farm. This David Watson Cemetery is located up around the Seneca Lake, a few miles from Cambridge, Guernsey Co., OH. There is also a old Jacob Yoho Cemetery which is almost surrounded by the waters of Seneca Lake. The Watson, Wilson, and Yoho families, when they first came to Ohio, all settled on Wills Creek Valley within one to three miles from one another. Found from this is Watsons married Wilsons, Wilsons married Watsons, and Watsons married Yohos.
