EBERSOLE, HARMON posted by Rebecca A. Talkie on Wednesday, March 29, 2000

Mary Ann EBERSOLE I am looking for my Great Grandmother's birth place. It is listed in various places in our information as Annapolis Co. OH but there is no Annapolis Co and I am now assuming that it was just Annapolis, OH. in Jefferson Co. She was born on 24 - Feb -1860 to John P. EBERSOLE and Jemima HARMON. They are from Dauphin Co. PA and the information there does not list her or one of her sisters as being their children - probably because they were born in OH. They were in OH for a period of time before moving to Koscuisko, Co., IN where she got married to William P. Frush on 10 - Jan -1882. I am basically looking for proof that this was where she was born to these parents. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it
