BURRIS, FLORA, JORDAN posted by Peggy Eckhart on Monday, September 9, 1996

Richard JORDAN moved from North Carolina to Preble County, Gratis Township in the late 1820's and left in middle 1830's for Carroll County, IN with Henry E. JORDAN and Seth BURRIS. I need a death date on his wife, maybe Sarah, and I think that he might have come to Preble County and died about 1845. I need information on the JORDAN family in Gratis Township including Joe R. JORDAN and Juliann FLORA.

MCCOMB, MCCOMBS, THOMPSON, WEEMS, WHITE posted by Jane McCombs Gillespie on Monday, September 9, 1996

I am reseaching MCCOMB/MCCOMBS family in SC. It came to my attention recently that many families from Abbeville Co SC came to Preble Co OH. These families seemed to have came from Cedar Springs, Lower Long Cane and Hopewell Presbyterian Churches. Would be interested in information concerning a Hopewell Church/cemetery in Preble. Would be interested in WEEMS, WHITE, or THOMPSON familes that named their children after George MCCOMB in early 1800's that might have come to Preble.
