After 1849 and before 1853 they moved to Belmont County, Ohio and proceeded to have a large family. In the 1860 Belmont County census, Abram is listed as Abraham and his wife is listed as Mary Jane. However, on Lucetta's Death Certificate completed by her son the attending physician, her mother's name is listed as Margaret WAGRIER. Are Margaret and Mary Jane the same person or did Margaret WAGRIER died in Uniontown and Abram moved the family to Belmont on his own...(There is no record of him marrying after he got to Belmont County and Mary Jane indicates that even though her parents were born in Ohio, she was born in Pa.) Any information on WAGGLE or WAGRIER would be most appreciated. Thanks
