Family/Spouse: Sarah Dameron. Sarah (daughter of Christopher Dameron and Sarah Martha Ball) was born in 1740; died in Aft.1763. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Gaskins is a French Huegonot name derived from the surname "Gascoigne". Bartholomew/Baten is the father of Sarah. He was the correct age and lived in the correct place, Gallia Co., Ohio, to be her father. He was the only Gaskin in the 1820 census to meet this criteria. In fact, all of the Gaskins in Gallia Co., OH appear to be his relatives as they all fit exactly into every year's census patterns for his family. There is no other female Gaskin the age of Sarah A. that could be his daughter that was from age 5 to 10 in the 1820 census, his youngest daughter by his 2nd wife. Sarah also names a son after him.

Bartholomew was married at least twice and probably 3 times, as his first likely son Rhueben was born in 1791 according to his tombstone, and Bartholomew did not marry his first known wife until 1793.

His proven children are Thomas Gaskin and John Gaskins. In the 1810 census, he lived in Bedford Co., VA. There were 3 males under age 10, 3 between 10 and 16, 1 from 16 to 26 and himself over age 45. The females in the household included 1 under age 10 and 1 between 26 and 45.

In the 1820 Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH census, he is listed as Baten Gaskins. There were 2 boys under age 10 (Overton and Abraham if his birthdate was forgotten when he was older), 2 boys between 10-16 (Jeremiah and Solomon), 2 boys between 16 and 26 (John and Thomas), 1 daughter under age 10 (Unknown), 1 daughter from 10-16 (Sarah A. Gaskins), 1 daughter from 26-45 (Jemima Gaskins) and he and his wife were over 45 years of age. It is likely that Rhueben and James Gaskins that were between the ages of 16 and 26 living with their own small families in Gallipolis Twp., Gallia Co. in 1820 are also Baten's sons. They were accounted for by age in Bartholomew's 1810 census.

Nearness in location of several Gaskins farms also indicates further child relationships. Rheuben's farm is adjacent to Bartholomews. (CL-365) There is also a Solomon Gaskin who bought a farm within close proximity of Bartholomew's just south of Rio Grande, OH that suggests he is also a child of Barts. Rhueben married Julia Evans on 8/24/1820. A Myma Gaskins, possible daughter of Baten, married John Deal on 1/25/1826 in Gallia Co., Ohio.

There are two Bartholomew Gaskins that show up in the 1850 Clermont Co., Ohio Census, Ohio Twp, p. 415 that should be checked to see if one could be a son of his. There is also a Rose Gaskins that dies in unknown date at age 1m in Ohio Twp., Gallia Co., OH that is likely to be an infant daughter of his by wife Nancy Rose. (CL-371, 495, 538)

He purchased 100 acres in Gallia Co., Ohio on Jul 17, 1818 from David Boggs. It was located about 1/2 mile south of Rio Grande on the east side, NW 1/4 sec. 34 T6 R16. (Book 9, p. 103) He was taxed for 3 horses and 3 cattle in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio sometime in that same year. (He did not have a house or lot in this tax record). He sold a small portion of his land along with wife, Nancy on Jun 12, 1849 to the School district #8, 1/4 acre in sect. 31 T6 R16. In 1822, he was taxed on 2 horses and 4 cattle in Raccoon Twp., but again no house or lot. Bartholomew is on the 1823 delequent tax list for Gallia Co. OH, section 27, T. 6, Range 16 which indicates that he owned a second piece of land. He was taxed on 1 horse and 3 cattle in Raccoon Twp. in 1824 and 1825. He was on the tax list for 1825 and 1827, Sec. 34, T6, R16 in Raccoon Township. Reuben also lived in Raccoon Twp. (CL-499)

In the 1830 census, he is living in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio He has one son between 10-15 years, 1 from 15-20 and he was between the ages of 60 and 70. His wife was between the age of 50-60. They had one daughter living with them from age 5-10. They also had one of their likely mothers living with them, a woman between 80-90 years of age. They were neighbors of Thomas Boiles who was the husband of Jane Gaskins, Reuben Gaskins and Jacob Danner married to Sarah Gaskins. (p. 153)

In the 1840 census, he still had one son left in the household between 10 and 15. He and his wife were between the ages of 70 and 80. (p. 13, Raccoon Twp, Gallia Co, OH) In the 1850 census it is possible that he is the Bartholomew A. Gaston, age 88 who was born in MD and was still employed as a farmer. He lived with Overton Gaston (his son???), age 25, b. VA, farmer and his wife, Mary, age 22, b. PA, Nancy, age 39 f, b. VA and Bartholomew, age 1 b. Ohio. Nancy and the baby are his last spouse and a new young son. (C-495, 538) This is supported by a marriage record in Gallia County between Bartholomew A. Gaskins and Nancy Rose in 1748 and by the following record dated June 12, 1849. "In Deed Records, Volume 22, page 161, Bartholomew Gaskins to School District No. 8 Raccoon Township: 'Know by all men that we Bartholomew A. Gaskins an Nancy Gaskins, wife of said Bartholomew A. Gaskins, in consideration of the sum of $3 in hand paid by Thomas Jones, Edmond Noel, and Jacob White, School Directors of District No. 8 in Raccoon Township in Section 34 containing 1/4 acre to the Directors and their successors in office to have and to hold forever.' Signed, sealed and delivered in the presence of Daniel G. Whiton, Silas M. Boyer, Bartholomew A. Gaskins "x" (his mark). In this record, Rickabaugh #9 School was established and built on Garner's Ford Road. His birthplace of Maryland is again supported in his son, Abraham's 1880 census in which the household record states that Abraham's father was born in Maryland. He lived and probably died in Gallia Co., OH between 1850 and 1856 according to Warren Lawrence, a family researcher.

As for Bartholomew's parentage, it was passed down to Susan Roquemore that Bart's father was named Josiah, though I haven't found first hand support for this yet. (www.familytreemaker.com).

Bartholomew's marriage record to Rachel Wood Donathan is in Hinshaw's encyclopedia in volume 6 under Bedford Co., Virginia Marriage Bonds. It is NOT a Quaker record. Hinshaw in his last volume included marriage bonds for two counties in Virginia. Bedford was one of them. I believe that the persons who have connected Bartholomew to Josiah were confused by the county records that were included in Hinshaw's last volume, interpreting them as Quaker records.

If he was a Quaker, there is a Josiah Gaskill of correct age to be Bart's father in Hinshaw's Quaker records. Josiah Gaskill got a certificate to marry Mary Griffith on 10/5/1748 in Burlington MM, NJ. It should be again noted that Bartholomew's birthplace is listed as Maryland in his 1850 census and his son, Abraham's 1880 census which does not fit with the locations of this Josiah. I also have found extensive listings of the Gaskills (occasionally spelled Gaskins) in the Burlington MM, Records of NJ and no Bartholomew is amongst them.

Bartholomew is not in any of the deed records in NJ that support his lineage there either. Brian Durst suggests that he might have come from Northumberland Co., VA (via a Josiah Gaskins again) and that his somewhat unique name "Bartholomew" is from a stepbrother of his mother.
There are Gaskins in Virginia where a daughter, Elizabeth Gaskins married a Bartholomew Shrever, but no Bartholomew descendants in her brothers lines have yet been found by me. (CL-561)

As for Maryland leads, there are very few Gaskins in Maryland in the 1700's. There is a Sarah Gascoigne that came over in bondage in 1725 in the following record. If she had a male child out of wedlock, then she could be the grandmother of our Bartholomew Gaskins as one possibility.

There are 3 female Gaskins that marry in Talbot Co, MD a full generation before this Bart would have been born that might be his aunts. No others could be found in any marriage records for the entire state through the time period where he would have been born.

There is a Greenwood Gaskins living in Talbot Co., Maryland who witnesses a will for Peter Parratt on Sep 15, 1754. He himself dies and leaves a will in 1760 in that same county.

The following record on Ancestry applies to him.

A Leah or Leach Gaskin also dies in 1760 in Talbot Co., MD. One of these is likely to have had a son named Greenwood who was a Private in the Militia under Capt. Thomas Bullen's Co., about late 1775. Leah could be the nickname for Greenwoods' wife named Deborah. At least that is what I have theorized.

Of all of the Gaskins in Maryland, he could have easily descended from a William Gaskin who was named Constable for Bay Hundred in 1679 in Talbot Co., MD. He purchased or was granted 50 acres of land called Gaskins Pasture in Talbot County on 27 Mar 1682. He dies on June 16, 1711 in Prince George County in 1711. He left a will written on Apr. 29, 1711 and it was probated on Aug 4, 1711 by Executor Margaret Gaskin, his wife. A son John apparently sells part of 100 acres of land on the North Branch of Patuxent River called Green Clift in Prince George Co., MD to William Nicholls where he lived shortly after this as part of the settlement of his father's estate. John and his wife, Mary are in the records again referring to "Green Clifts" on Jul 20, 1730. This might be the John Gaskin living in Bullenbrook Hundred, Talbot Co., MD in an early 1733 state census. There is a John Gaston who is the head of household in Frederick Co., Maryland in the 1790 census. A William Gaskins took his oath of allegiance in 1778 in Somerset Co., MD. There is a James Gaskins who marries an Eleanor Sewell Gaskins sometimes after her first marriage in 1784 in Anne Arundel Co., Maryland that would be a contemporary of Bartholomew and his possible brother. (CL-555, 577, 578, 584-6)

In Virginia there is a pocket of Gaskins in Northumberland Co, VA in 1787. Adult households in that area are headed by Spencer, Salley, Edwin, Moses, Thomas John, Isaac, and Mary that might be related. Possible siblings show up in locations where his family or children live. IIn Clermont Co., OH there are multiple Gaskins of appropriate age to be his siblings. A Thomas Gaskins lives there in 1830 who is between age 40 and 50. (p. 189, Tate Twp., Clermont Co., OH).

Bartholomew married Rachel Ward\Woods DONATHAN on 7 May 1793 in , Bedford, VA, USA. Rachel (daughter of Thomas WOOD and Elizabeth UNKNOWN) was born about 1770 in Bedford Co., Virginia; died in 1840 in , Gallia, OH, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Bartholomew married Nancy ROSE on 8 May 1848 in Raccoon, Gallia County, Ohio, USA. Nancy was born about 1811 in , , VA, USA; died in 1900 in Springfield, Gallia, Ohio, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Reuben Gaskins was on the 1827 Tax lists for Gallia Co., OH, not for owning land but for his chattel. He lived in Raccoon Twp. He paid taxes on Chattel for 1 cattle in Raccoon Twp. in 1818 and on 2 cattle in Gallipolis in 1824 and 2 cattle in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH in 1825. He is missing from the 1822, 1823, 1826 and 1828 Tax lists, whatever that means.

He owns land adjacent to his father, Bartholomew, in Raccoon Twp., Rio Grande, Ohio as provided on a plat map by Warren Lawrence. (CL-495) He is within 3 houses of his father's in the 1830 census, p. 153, Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio He was age 30 to 40. His wife was from 20 to 30 years of age. They had one son under age 5, 1 from 5-10, and 1 daughter from age 5-10. In the 1840 census in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH, they have one son under age 5, 1 from 5-10, 1 from 10-15, and he was 40-50. Females in the household include 2 under age 5, 2 from 5-10, 1 from 10-15 and 1 from 30-40. In the 1850 census, Reuben was 59, b. VA, wife Julia was 48, b. Va. with 4 daughters and 2 sons living in the household from ages 17 to 1. (CL-513)

Reuben married Julia EVANS on 24 Aug 1820 in , Gallia, OH, USA. Julia (daughter of Foster EVANS and Cecelia BRADLEY) was born about 1802 in Of Va, USA; died after 1850 in Of Gallia, OH, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Thomas may have had a wife before Phebe. A Thomas Gaskins married Betsey Jones on Dec 6, 1811 in Clermont Co., OH also. There were also two Thomas Gaskins in Clermont Co., one who was anywhere from a year to 20 years older than the other who might be confused with our Thomas Gaskins, son of Bartholomew of Gallia Co., Ohio The elder one died by Nov. 1852 as his estate was probated at that time in Clermont Co., Ohio (CL-500, 502) Thomas settled permanently in northwestern Pierce (Clermont Co. OH) then called Pleasant Hill around 1818. His children included Dr. Cyrus, Dr. John, William of Williamsville, Clermont Co., OH and Sylvester of Indiana, Jane, Hettie and Susan. The "History of Clermont County" states that he was a "practical farmer ..and.. an ardant Jacksonian Democrat." He was in the 1820 census for Clermont Co., OH, p. 26 with he and his wife between the ages 16 and 26, 1 son under age 10, 2 daughters under age ten, and he was employed in agriculture. He is in the 1830 census for Ohio Twp., Clermont Co., OH, page 218, between 30 and 40 years of age with a wife in the same age bracket, 2 sons under age 5, 1 under age 10, 1 from 10-15, 1 daughter under age 5, 1 under age 10 and 2 from 10-15. This is within 25 households of Jeremiah and John Gaskins' farms in Clermont Co., Ohio (CL-504, 505, 508, 569)

Thomas married Elizabeth "Betsey Or Betse" JONES on 6 Dec 1811 in Clermont, Ohio, USA. Elizabeth was born about 1790 in , Augusta, VA; died before 1819 in of, Clermont County, Ohio, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Thomas married Pheobe WARD on 3 Jun 1819 in Pierce Township, Clermont County, Ohio. Pheobe (daughter of Nehemiah WARD and Elizabeth CRANE) was born on 8 Nov 1794 in Newark, Essex County, New Jersey, United States of America; died on 17 Apr 1866 in Amelia, Clermont County, Ohio, United States of America; was buried about 12 Apr 1856 in Amelia, Clermont County, Ohio, United States of America. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

John was a farmer by trade, not to be confused with his nephew whom was a physician. He moved from Bedford Co., VA in 1824 to Clermont Co., OH where he purchased land previously owned by Ridley in Pleasant Valley. He is likely the John Gaskins who lived in Ohio Twp., Clermont Co., OH in the 1830 census. He was between 30 and 40. His wife was between 20 and 30. They had 2 sons under under age 5, and one from 5-10. He died there in 1879 of paralysis. (CL-504, 569)

John married Hannah GILLMAN on 18 Dec 1825 in , Clermont, OH, USA. Hannah was born about 1806 in , , OH, USA; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

James is a probable son of Bartholomew Gaskins of Rio Grande, Ohio In the 1830 census, he is living in Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH, pg. 141, and he and his wife are between ages 20 and 30, with a son under age 5 and two daughters under 5 and one daughter between 5 and 10. (CL-495, 498, 499) His wife's name is theorized to be Nancy Evans, although she could have married his likely cousin James, instead.

Family/Spouse: Nancy Anderson EVANS. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Jeremiah Gaskins who lived two houses from likely brother John Gaskins in Ohio Twp., Clermont Co., OH in 1830 is likely to be this Gaskins. He was between age 20 and 30 in the 1830 census, and between 15 and 20 in age in the 1820 census. His possible mother-in-law is living with him, age 30-40. They have 2 sons age 5 to 10 in the household. He was age 47 born in VA in the 1850 Clermont Co., Ohio census. Note that his supposed sister, Jemima was also age 47, b. PA in the 1850 census.

Family/Spouse: Catherine HOLDERFIELD. Catherine was born about 1800 in , , OH, USA; died after 1850. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Jemima is age 47 in the 1850 census for Clinton Twp., Vinton Co., OH with a birth place of PA clearly listed. However, in the 1880 census, she and her parents are listed as being born in Virginia. That disagrees with her father and her brother Abraham's census listing father Bartholomew's birthplace as Maryland.

Jemima married John DEAL on 25 Jan 1826 in , Gallia, OH, USA. John was born about 1801 in , , VA, USA; died on 5 Feb 1887 in , Jackson, OH, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Her age range is based on the fact that she was between the ages of 20 and 30 in the 1830 census and was therefore the daughter who was age 10 to 16 in her father's household in 1820.

Jane married Thomas BOILES on 15 Jun 1820 in , Gallia, OH, USA. Thomas was born in 1790; died after 1830. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

He lives in Raccon Twp., Gallia Co., OH near the other children of Bartholomew Gaskins and fits this son by age from the 1820 census. In the 1840 census for Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH, he is listed between 20 and 30 with a wife the same age and two daughters under age 5. I can't find him in any other census for Ohio or elsewhere. (CL-563)

Solomon married Sarah DANNER on 25 Mar 1832 in Clermont, Ohio, USA. Sarah (daughter of Jonathan DANNER and Elizabeth MOYER) was born in 1812 in Virginia; died between 1813 and 1906. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Since Sarah married Jacob at a very young age in Gallia Co, Ohio, her family would also have lived in Gallia Co., Ohio at the time. In the 1820 census, there is only one family that had a daughter her age. This Baten/Bartholomew Gaskins lived in Raccoon Twp, and had 2 sons under 10, 2 under 16, 2 under 26, with 1 daughter of five and under ten (likely Sarah), 1 under 16, 1 between 26 and 45. He and his wife were above age 45. Their marriage date is in Gallia Co., records and her age is calculated from her age in the Federal Census records for Gallia Co., Ohio. If the census records are correct, she was at most age 12 when they married. His actual names from other records was Bartholomew Adam Gaskins. Sarah and her husband named a son after him, Bartholomew Adam Danner. There is another younger Sarah A. Gaskins, b. in 1837 who was living with Uriah Rose and Elizabeth Gaskins Rose in the 1850 census. She is probably Elizabeth's sister and likely granddaughter of Baten Gaskins, niece to this Sarah A. by age and place. Warren Lawrence theorizes that the younger Sarah A. is a daughter of Baten's son Reuben Gaskins.(C-513)

I have corresponded with a Gaskin in Western Australia. Her ancestors went to Australia in 1874 from England. She believes the name originated in France. (CL-309) Another correspondent with Gaskins in his ancestry states the Gaskins he has were from England and before that from Ireland. (CL-423)

Sarah married Jacob DANNER on 1 May 1828 in , Gallia, OH, USA. Jacob (son of Jonathan DANNER and Elizabeth MOYER) was born about 1805 in , Augusta, VA; died after 1874 in Raccoon Twp., Gallia, OH, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

He is in the 1850 and 1860 census for Clermont Co., Ohio. In the 1880 census, he is listed as Abraham and is living with his nephew, Sylvester Gaskins, in Pierce Twp., Clermont Co., Ohio. In it, like in his father's 1850 census, it states that Bartholomew (his father) was born in Maryland.

Family/Spouse: Elizabeth LITTLETON. Elizabeth was born on 27 Aug 1815 in Clermont County, Ohio, USA; died on 12 May 1876 in Pierce Twp., Clermont, OH, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

She could be the Cordelia Gaskins who married James Burnett on Aug 21, 1845 in Gallia Co., OH, the Rhoda J. Gaskins who married Silas Boyers on 11/2/1848 in Gallia Co., OH, the Elizabeth A. who married Uriah Rose on 6/10/1849 in Gallia Co., OH or the Celia Gaskins who married Elijah Parry on Feb. 22/23, 1851 in the Gallipolis Journal. At www.ancestry.com in their "Ohio Marriages" they have listed Celia as Eclia, but I think this was just a typo.

Notes:

In the 1850 census, Overton is listed as being born in VA. He was in the head of household position and Bartholomew, (age 88) his wife and infant son were living with them. This birth place doesn't quite make sense as Bartholomew lived in Gallia Co., OH by the 1820 census.

Overton married Mary UNKNOWN before 1850. Mary was born about 1828 in , Augusta, VA; died after 1850. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Family/Spouse: Margaret BRANFORD. Margaret was born about 1848 in Ohio; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Family/Spouse: Anna PARKINS. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

She was still single and living at home with her mother in 1860.

Nancy married Isaac TOBIN, * on 12 Aug 1869 in , Gallia, OH, USA. Isaac (son of Nathaniel TOBIN, * and Elizabeth JACOBS) was born on 29 Jul 1803 in , Loudoun, VA, USA; died on 9 Oct 1881 in Springfield, Sangamon County, Illinois, United States of America; was buried about 12 Oct 1881 in Springfield, Sangamon, IL, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

She was still single and living at home in the 1860 census. I suspect she is the Mary Jane Gaskins who married Franklin Leach on Apr. 24, 1873 in Gallia Co., Ohio

Notes:

Sarah is living next door to Reuben and Julia Gaskins in the 1850 census with her sister Elizabeth's family who is already married. (CL-294, 462)

He was placed in the asylum in Athens, Ohio in 1877 where he died about 2 years later at the young age of 36. (CL-273)

Family/Spouse: Jane E. WAUGH. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

She is likely to be the Cordelia Gaskins who married James Burnett on 8/21/1845 in Gallia Co., OH marriage records by Trowbridge.

Notes:

Her father lived in the section next to she and her husband in Raccoon Twp. They were in section 34 and Jacob Danner lived in section 33, west of their farm, about 5 farms over.

Mary married Wesley TOBIN on 21 May 1854 in , Gallia, OH, USA. Wesley (son of Isaac TOBIN, * and Matilda Ann(a) BENTON) was born on 3 May 1831 in , Guernsey, OH, USA; died on 13 Aug 1897 in Rio Grande, Gallia, OH; was buried about 16 Aug 1897 in , Gallia, OH, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

James served in the Civil War in the 173rd Ohio Volunteer Infantry Regiment, Company C. He enlisted on Aug 15, 1864 at Centerville, Gallia Co, Ohio. He mustered into the service with the regiment of Sep 17 of that year. Within 3 months, by Dec. 23, 1864 he fell ill and was placed in the U.S. Army General Hospital Number 2 in Nashville, TN. He died in Tennessee on Jan. 21, 1865 from complications of Typhoid fever. He is buried in Nashville National Cemetery where a correspondent, Major Richard Blanton has seen his grave. His wife Nancy signed for his personal effects and was listed as living at Thurman, Ohio at the time. (CL-89, 444, 445, 454)

Family/Spouse: Nancy Jane JINKS. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

In the 1870 Clay Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio Census he is listed at age 32 making his birth date as 1838 instead of 1840 as listed in earlier census records. In 1874 he might be the D. Danner living Section 18 of Perry Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio (CL-383, 590)

Family/Spouse: Sarah Jane BENNET. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Bartholomew A. Danner achieved the rank of Private in Co. D, 179th Regiment of the Ohio Infantry in the American Civil War. He enlisted on August 27, 1864 and was dischaged June 17, 1865. His address given was Wigner, Green Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio. He had the nickname of Bart. (CL-363, 444, 445, 454)

Bartholomew married Margaret Jane BENNET on 20 Feb 1862 in , Gallia, OH, USA. Margaret was born in in , , OH, USA; died on 2 Dec 1902 in , Gallia, OH, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

John died in the Civil War in Tennessee while serving about a year. He was apparently discharged at Camp Pittsburg (Shiloh or Pittsburg Landing) before dying from disease in Tennessee and is buried in Nashville National Cemetery near his brother James Henry Danner. He was in the 31st Ohio Volunteer Infantry Regiment, Co. E or H which formed in Columbus, Ohio (CL-89,444, 445) There is a possibility that his birth date is miscalculated and that he married Margaret Gillen on Oct. 31, 1861. Also in Gallia County marriages, there was a John R. Danner who married Eliza Flowers on Aug. 22, 1864. (CL-190, 369)

Notes:

Abraham J. Daner married Eliza J. Rusk on Nov. 29, 1865 at the bride's home according to a book of birth, marriage and death records for Gallia Co., Ohio.
