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.

1995 Family Reunion

The Watson Family Reunion was held on Sunday 16 Jul 1995 at the Tuscora Park in New Philadelphia, OH.


RESEARCHER: Belinda Fowler Watson furnished some information on the David Watson family to Denver C. Yoho. She probably published a Watson book.


BIOGRAPHY:
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 an 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.
