I would like to find a "cousin" for my husband - does any one on this line have a connection to the DANIELS family of Piqua? I found, in her mother's obituary, that Rosanna Crozier Daniels, wife of Lloyd Daniels, was living in Piqua in 1967. Rosanna and my husband share ancestry through gr-grandparents, Thomas Kilpatrick and Martha Ann Reed. I hope to hear from a Daniels family member soon. Ellie

Hi!
Is anyone out there connected to an ELWOOD CROMER? His name was listed as s/o GEORGE C CROMER'S 1952 Piqua OH obit.

Does anyone have information on a spouse for GEORGE C CROMER? On his death certificate it listed him as divorced.

GEORGE is buried with his mother ANNA CROMER (CRUEA) in Pleasant Hill Cemetery, and someone still decorates their graves. I would like a lead to help solve this puzzle.

I am searching for a marriage and divorce record of my grandfather, LeRoy STOUT. He was born in Miami county, Ohio on July 3, 1907. His parents name were Lee and Daisy (Brown) STOUT. His first marriage had to take place in the late 1920's, as he had a son, Roger STOUT, born in 1930. The reason I need to know this is because I need to know if he and my grandmother, Doris Helen Moran, born Feb 14,1920, were ever married. If his first divorce record dates before 1940, then there is a chance that they were and I need to know for sure.
