TISCHER, TISHER posted by Marilyn Houseman on Tuesday, March 3, 1998: The surname I am researching is TISCHER or TISHER, specifically, Fred. His father may have been Kasper. I have 11/03/1843 as Fred's birthdate in Morrow County OH, but since the county wasn't formed at that time I have a problem. Snail Mail: Marilyn Houseman, 45 Chester St., Nashua, NH 03060.

DARLING, GATTON, HOBSON, KREPPS, MACY, TISCHER posted by Brenna Hobson Budd on Sunday, March 22, 1998: While reading the Salt Lake microfilm #0388783 for the marriage of Cora May TISCHER to David KREPPS on 24 Dec 1891, I noticed that a line was drawn through "and both of the same race." I feel very secure in the knowledge that these two people were both white. (Personal knowledge of my Mother, Mabel Beck HOBSON MACY.) Then I looked up the page (77) of vol. 4 of the Marriage Records to see that Melrose GATTON and Emma DARLING had a similar line through the same words. Could anyone explain this?

Before she died, she told me several stories about family, and gave me three old photo books. Names written beneath photographs include: Inagga Bricker SPERRY, Elizabeth TULLOSS SNYDER, Benjaman TULLOSS (taken by E.J. Potter of Mansfield, OH), John J. TULLOSS, Bruce TULLOSS, Ben. F. TULLOSS, George W. TULLOSS, Aaron FINNEY (taken by John C. Lake's, Shreve, OH), Rachel STEVENS FINNEY photo missing), According to a note, my grandmother's father was Charles Uzziel STEVENS, and his mother was Eizabeth TULLOSS STEVENS. Her photograph was taken by Fred S. Crowell, of Mount Vernon, OH. My grandmother believed that her family came from pioneers who settled in Morrow County, OH prior to statehood. Any information you might have about TULLOSS or STEVENS will be appreciated. Also, I am willing to provide additional names from the photo albums. I have no dates, and some photos do not have any indication where they were taken. Thank you. Margaret Frazier Bowman, 25 Rocky Knob Road, Fairview, NC 28730.
