I am looking for information on my grandfather William James MARSHALL whose daughter Winifred May/Mae married a Floyd MORRIS sometime after 1900 and then both families moved from the Lima - Allen County, Ohio area to California. Floyd may have been a veteran of the Spanish-American War. Thank you for your time.

BOOP, FLAHIE, GORMAN, LAWLOR, LEARY, MCCANNA posted by Genie Flahie on Monday, February 26, 2001

FLAHIE; BOOP; LAWLOR; O'LEARY; GORMAN; MCCANNA; Patrick, Michael, and Thomas FLAHIE all worked in the Lima oilfields in the late 1880's. They married a Lawlor, McCanna, and Boop, respectively. O'Leary was another wife, although I'm not sure she was from Lima. Gorman is the name to which a cemetery plot was given by Patrick. Wondering if there is a relationship there. Thank you.

He moved with his brother Elmer COOK born in 1861 and died in Lima, Ohio in 1902 or 1903. My grandmother Lillian COOK was in 1891 I believe in Hancock County Ohio.

Am looking for relatives of Charles Harris (Sandy) SANDIFER born 22 May, 1895, died 29 July, 1974. He was married to Mary L. GARDNER and they lived in Lima for over 40 years. He worked for Standard Oil, was a member of Lima Baptist Church and they had 3 daughters: Mrs. Joseph MAXWELL, Mrs. Zachery (Harriett) PEARSON and Mrs. Shelley CHARLES. At the time of his death, his obituary states that in addition to the above daughters, he had 4 grandchildren. No names were given. He was the older brother to my grandmother - Ada Pauline SANDIFER HIGHTOWER (Mrs. R.E.L.) and like her, grew up in Denmark, Bamberg Co., SC. Would love to find members of this family as I have a great deal of information to share with them.
