   I am looking for a gravesite or any information I can find on a Mr. Stiffler, possibly Harry or Henry, who was married to Mary Nugent. I believe he died between 1850 and 1856 in Berlin, Holmes County, Ohio. Mary Nugent Stiffler, her young daughter Rachel Jennie Stiffler, Aaron S. Nugent, her father, her mother, Nancy Mathews Nugent and Mary’s sibblings moved to LeClaire, Iowa around 1856. Thank you in advance and thank you for your good work for others.

   Regards,

   Mr. Page Dew

       Thanks for the new information on Henry Stiffler. I believe he is the person I am looking for, but I will continue to assemble information to make sure I am right.

   Is the name of the wife of Michael Stiffler spelled “Rachael” or “Rachel”?

   Thanks

   I am looking for the Longnecker cemetery located in Holmes County, Ohio. My research for John Barkey and Susanna Buzzard has led me to Ohio.
   John was born Aug 25, 1781 in Bucks County, PA
   Susanna Buzzard March 15, 1790 also Bucks County, PA
   I believe they were married in PA
   Both of them died in Winesberg, OH
   John on Oct 30, 1860 and Susanna on June 2, 1863
   I am looking to confirm my research and any other information you may have on John and Susanna. I would be happy to pay a research fee if one is applicable or make a donation to your library. Please advise.
   Warm regards,
   Diana Knain

     Hi Diana

     Here is the list of people in the Longnecker Cemetery http://www.holmeslibrary.org/cemeteries/files/2011/03/Longnecker-Cemetery-Paint-Township.pdf It looks like your ancestors are there. I plan to do a Lunch and a Cemetery Blog post next week at that cemetery. I’ll take pictures for you and e-mail you the link when I get it on the blog. If you would like further research done, please refer to the form on the website.

   I’m trying to locate the gravesite of my grt. grt. grandparents Ulrich & Katarina Kaufman. There could be varied spellings of Katarina or Kaufman. Ulrich was born 1823 switzerland and Katarinna 1822 Switzerland. I’ve seen articles stating that they lived in Killbuck at the time of their deaths. I’ve been unable to find a year of deaths or burial place. Could you please help. Have Ohio Family reunion coming on Aug. 4 2013 would love to take this info with me. My sister and I are going grave finding while there, she lives in New york, I live in Missouri. Anything would be very appreciated. Thank You Debra Kaufman-Williams

     Hi Debra,

     I could not find Ulrich nor Katarina in the cemetery and the obituary books. I did see him listed in the 1870 census as living in Monroe twp. at the age of 46.

     I’m sorry I couldn’t find any more information.
