Thanks for posting this obit! It gives me some information I didn't have
before. While Nannie lived and died in Hancock Co., WVA, she was a native
of Beaver Co., PA, daughter of William Young Calvin and A. Matilda Hartford.
William moved to Columbiana Co., OH just before the 1880 census. His family
in 1880 included:
Maud Calvin age 9 b. PA
Nannie Calvin age 6 b. PA <------------ [m. Daniel Marker]
Jane Calvin age 2 PA [Jennie/Jean; mentioned in the obit]
Harry T. Calvin age 10 mos. PA
The 1900 census includes Maud A., Jennie and Harry Calvin, and adds these
children:
Chester Calvin b. Aug 1881 OH [mentioned in the obit]
Martha Calvin b. Jan 1884 OH [mentioned in the obit as Martha Todd]
Anna Calvin b. Oct 1887 OH [mentioned in the obit]
Everett Calvin b. Oct 1889 OH [mentioned in the obit as E. Y.]
The date of Nannie [Calvin] Marker's death would be around 1950. Beaver
Falls is in Beaver Co., PA. East Palestine is in Columbia Co., OH.
Again, thanks!
