I am a descendant of Uriah BALDWIN of Mt. Victory. I have two obituaries from the local newspapers. One of Uriah and one of his daughter Inez who was a teacher in the county. Uriah died 1905 and Inez 1940. I would like to contribute this information to the website. For the past 2+ years that I have been tracing my family, I seem to be the only one interested in this particular line. By posting this information, it may attract family members of which I am not aware. Please let me know. Thank you.

In the mid to late 1800's my great-grandfather Cyrus S. HUNTER of Carey, Ohio married a Minerva Anna YENTZER and I have been searching for the name YENTZER to help track my past and found none. Going through some old Chief-Union newspapers I found a Charles YENTZER of Kenton died in 1973. I was hoping this could shed some light on me dilemma but I found no YENTZER on you site. This is what I have on them, Charles was born Sep. 24, 1889 married Nellie HOTELLING 1907(she died 1959). He was the son of George and Flora (WOOD) YENTZER. I'm hoping with your expertise some light can be shed on this. Thank you much,

Are there any records available in county courthouse?
