Mabelle WHITE born in Atlanta, GA

by jmaize 13 years, 10 months ago

She was Mabelle born Nov. 29, 1874 in Atlanta, GA. She married Harry Marshall Powell LEACH. They moved to Tennessee. I believe they were married in GA. Their children were Edward (Harry), Marion (Francis), Adelaide and Lewis (my grandfather). Both Mabelle and Harry died in Tennessee and are buried in Chattanooga Memorial Cemetery. I am looking for any information on Mabelle WHITE's ancestors.

Looking for George BENDER born in Lucas County, OH

by jmaize 13 years, 10 months ago

I am looking for information on George BENDER born in Lucas County, OH (maybe in Toledo)about 1868. He was my great-grandfather. He may have been born 2/18/1868 but some family members believe he may have been older. His father was also George and they both seem to have used the middle name Andrew.
George Jr's, mother may have been Christina (maybe Christiana). I have no maiden name. Apparently she died when George was young. George Sr., may have remarried Mary ROUNDS. Besides George Jr. the other children were Mary: b ~ 1862; Kate b ~ 1865; John b ~ 1867; Elizabeth b ~ 1870. The info about his siblings was obtained from the 1870 census.
George, the elder, migrated from Prussia and he was 28 at the time of the 1870 census. Christina was also from Prussia and she was 27 at the time of the census. We do not know which province they were from.
George ran away from home at about age 13 and settled in TN. He married Martha Delia GREEN in Roane County, TN on 6/15/1891 (confirmed).
I seek to verify that this George Bender was indeed my ancestor or obtain corrections and additional information. Thanks for any help provided!
