Message Board Post:
Hey, cousins,
I have heard so much about this genealogical work but have never seen it for myself (I
lived in Missouri for 5 years <g>) and it appears that the publication is
out-of-print so I'm unable to procure a copy for myself (is there an online .PDF?) Is
there sufficient documentation to support its claims?
No offense to the author who I'm sure did his/her research but I've seen so much
conflicting information about CASTs (I have listed LDS as a "Questionable"
Source) that I'm seeking documentation to try to help me sort them out. I've done
most of the census work but still have a few more families (the early ones that aren't
*in* the census) and am looking for Sources.
I've found Sewell's (Beers) History of Clinton Co., OH - but some of the bios are
sketchy - and Clinton Co., OH GenWeb. Any other suggestions on where I can find CAST
references? (Anyone have access to "The Descendants of Ephraim Smith
1691-1996", "Marriage Records of Clinton County, Ohio 1810-1900" or
"Cemetery Records of Clinton County, Ohio 1798-1999" ?)
Happy to share what I've found in Ancestry.com's census records.
Thanks for your time,
Melinda K. Green
