Jean Fulton McQuiston

• General Notes
  • My information lists Jane McQuiston Fulton as a widow. She was born on 26
    Dec 1794 in PA and died 02 May 1849 in Guernsey Co., OH. Thomas was born
    in 1796 in Fayette Co., PA married 07 Feb 1822 in Westmoreland Co., PA
    and died about 1821 in Fayette Co., PA. I have not written for his estate
    records as of yet. Also, I have not checked my information with your
    information and I can not prove this is correct at this time. I can only
    assume that Thomas and Janeeloped, as they picked Westmoreland Co., to
    be married in, and for a number of years it seems that everyone eloped to
    Westmoreland Co.
    OBIT
    Obit for Violet Wynn:
    (The Miami Republican, Paola, Kansas, October 15, 1909)
    Mrs. WynnDead.
    Mrs. Violet M. Wynn died Monday evening, Oct 11, at the home of her
    daughter, Mrs. Geo. D. Voglesong at Iola, Kas. She had been in ill health
    for six months and her death is attributed to pneumonia and general
    decline.
    Mrs. Wynn was born in Guernsey Co., OH, and was in her 76th year at her

    they locatedin this county, on a farm south of Paola, where they lived
    until Mr. Wynn's death about twelve years ago. Soon after her husband's
    
    
    
    
    
    
    death Mrs. Wynn and son George removed to a farm near Lone Elm and about
    six years ago she removed to Iola. Mrs. Wynn was a member of the
    Methodist church since girlhood, liveda devoted Christian life and spoke
    only good of people. She managed her business affairs with rare capacity
    and before her death provided for a division of her property among her
    children, so that it will not be necessary to have an administrator. She
    is survived by seven children, Bert and George in Pawnee co., John and
    Mrs. Thos. Kinzey in Allen-co, Mrs John Huddleson at Humboldt., Mrs. Geo.
    D. Voglesong and Mrs. Harry Cott in Iola. All her children were with her

    [Alexander Grant his son, Alexander Grant administered will of Warner
    Wynn in Butler Co OH] This from Naomi Emmich 2/28/99
    Have Isabella and Margaret Mequeston/Miqueston marriages 1835 and 1842 in
    western OH,  some of them "went that a way"  They may be a second wave of
    emigration.
    Alexander Grant moved his army of sons-in-law to Mercer Co OH 1838 and
    the land records show one Edward McQuiston took up the last parcel of
    land in the township.  The land record 1844 shows McQuiston of Licking co
    at that time.  He later patented land one or two counties north in
    Paulding.
    ran a search for McQ's I find one in Darke (alittle south of Alexander
    Grant) and Henry McQuiston in 1840 says he was of Pennsylvania.  The
    zinger is one of HIS neighbors. I thought Alexander Grant was hot stuff,
    patenting four hundred acres and setting up a mill in the wilderness, 
    but now looks like he may have been acting as a foreman or some such...
    
    
    
    
    
    
    he located near the nearly one thousand acres patented by Samuel D.
    Hardin (of Hamilton Co OH). I'll spend some time in the Hamilton Co web
    
    
    
    
    
    
    page andsee if I can learn of money bags Sam...    this land was on the
    
    
    
    
    
    
    Indiana line, very little north of the Wynns who married Abrahams who
    married Hardins... records may be scattered, but I'll bet money bags was
    a city slicker and stayed down somewhere around Cincinnati...As above, 
    
    
    
    
    
    
    McQuistons from PA to OH (Mercer) as late as 1840-    and there are some
    unexplained WYNNs from PA about that period appearing in the Mercer
    census,  I'll dig them out,  maybe some of your PA emigrants from that
    period? Naomi Emmich Later
