Ji! I'm VERY interested in any marriages between the MERCER & Calverts &
the BURGESS families. My ancestor was Hannah Mercer Calvert b.1797 PA,
mother was Esther Jones & father John Calvert. I've always figured there
was a MERCER female in my line somewhere! John & Esther both died in
Belmont Co., OH in the 1840's. They moved from Centre Co., PA w/ the Mercer
family, but I don't know of their relationship. John's "pedigree" is
in
dispute, so it could be his mother was a Mercer.
Hannah married 1819 Andrew Wesley Scoles & moved 1820 to Knox Co., OH, where
other Scoles married into the Burgess family . The Scoles were from Ireland
c1750's & obviously Methodists. I think I remember reading in the History
of Belmont Co., OH that John Calvert had been a Baptist but converted to
Methodism after marrying Esther.
Thanks for any help!! Cindy
