ANDERSON, GOODWIN, PETRO posted by Randy Anderson on Friday, January 3, 1997

Looking for any information regarding Alexandra J. ANDERSON, who moved to Dublin Township in Mercer County, Ohio with his father Jordon in or about 1843. I believe Alexandra (male) was born in Maryland in 1830. He married Minerva J. GOODWIN of Mercer Cty in 1859. Minerva, my gg grandmother, died in 1923 and is buried in Sherer Cemetary north of Mendon, OH. They apparently sold the last of their land in Mercer Co. to a Mary E. PETRO in 1878. I can not find any trace of what happened to Alexandra after that date. Any clues would be appreciated!
