Am looking for any information of a Posey STEWART, yrs. 1800-1840. Posey was a Scottish emigrant who first lived in Frederick Co., MD. Last date I have for him there was 1796. I do not have access to census records. Can anyone check the 1800 and 1810 census records to see if a Posey Stewart is listed? Thanks for any help. Betty Houghton of Franklin, NC.

Date posted: Monday, September 1, 1997

The 1870 federal census for Staunton Township, page 583, line 9, lists the John SILER household. John was born in (West) Virginia, moving to the Urbana, Ohio region with his family in 1840. His brother was David SILER, who also lived in the Miami County area. His wife, the former Lucinda CONAWAY, was born somewhere in Ohio in 1848. Also included in the household was a Susan HOLLINGSWORTH, who was the right age and had the correct place of birth to be John's older sister. I believe this John SILER to be my g,g grandfather. Any connections?

Surnames: FREY, HASEBROCK, HASENBROCK, HAZEBROOK
Researcher: Ann Sherrill Davis
Email: [email protected]
Date posted: Tuesday, September 23, 1997

Researching the surname FREY and HASEBROCK / HAZEBROOK / HASENBROCK of Miami county, Ohio. Michael FREY and Gesina Johannah Hasebrock arrived in America in 1866 acording to 1900 census...there were other Hasebrook families in the Miami county area and it seems reasonable to presume these were relatives of Gesina's. While in Miami county, they had several children, and lived in the area called Tippicanoe City or what is now called Tipp City. Gesina and Mike Frey finally moved to Kansas before 1900. Am also interested in the family of Gottlieb Frey, a brother of Mike's. The Gottlieb Frey family lived on Orchard St. in Toledo, Ohio and ran a one-story meat market which today is a two-story apartment. They lived next door. Gottlieb killed himself before 1900, and is buried at Forest Cem. in Toledo. I believe Mike and Gottlieb had another brother named Albert but uncertain about his fate. He may have commited suicide sometime before Gottlieb's death. Mike died 1902 in Kansas. Would like to correspond with anyone interested in these same families.
