Abells in Geauga County

Hello,

I am looking for whatever information somebody may have on the following gravesites:

Code: Select all
ABELL             B.F., A.M.                           TR Township                             
ABELL             Elizabeth W.                         TR Township                             
ABELL             G.H., Mrs. (map)                     CH Village                               
ABELL             George                               TR Township                             
ABELL             H.P. (Prescott)                      TR Township                             
ABELL             John F.                              TR Township                             
ABELL             Joseph                               TR Township                             
ABELL             Margaret Nettie ( )                  CH Village                               
ABELL             Mary E.                              TR Township                             
ABELL             Polly                                TR Township                             
ABELL             Wm. H. ( )                           CH Village   

I am particularly looking for evidence that H.P. (Horatio Prescott) Abell is Joseph Abell's son. I have indirect evidence that makes me fairly sure that is the case, but I'd love more to go on, as this is the weakest proof link I have between me and my ancestors Abell through 500 years ago. Any information on grave inscriptions (photos would be awesome, obviously), who they're buried with or next to, etc. would be extremely helpful. I'm willing to pay somebody's gas money and throw in a nice bottle of wine if they are in the area and can go on a fact finding mission for me. I am in California and going there myself is somewhat cost-prohibitive right now.

Thank you.

- Brandon

Hi Brandon,

This county has all it's records in the Ohio USGenWeb Archives. I did a search and got these results. They are at the following URL:

http://www.usgwarchives.net/search/search.cgi/searchoh.htm?q=Abell&form=extended&ul=%2Fgeauga%2F&t=oh&m=all&ps=10&fmt=long&wm=wrd&sp=1&sy=1&wf=0001&type=&GroupBySite=no&county=%2Fgeauga%2F

I would also suggest looking for the 1850 census to see if they are together.
Good luck.

Maggie
