I was going through my letter from Rootsweb this morning and found that
there are some Ohio cemetery transcriptions available. I have ancestors
that were in Meigs County, Ohio so I was going through the cemetery
listings and found the following:
This is found in Meigs County, Lebanon township, Middleswart Cemetery.
Sellers,Wanda F.: 1941-1996
Darrell L.: 1939
Harold O.: 1919-1995
Ruth A.: 1921-
James E.: 1886-1977
Mabel A.: 1890-1973
James E.: 1910-1982
I hope this is helpful to someone on the list.
