Although I have found no verification, a couple of years ago another
DELONG researcher had included the father of this family, Joel Delong,
as a child of George Washington DELONG (b. 1799 in Marion Co, VA; married
4 Mar 1827 in Miami Co, OH; d. 5 Jan 1855 in Allen Co, IN) and Rebecca
YORK (b. 1809 in OH; d. 2 Jan 1851 in Allen Co, IN). Several of their
other stated children were also found on the Federal Censuses as being in
Allen County during the same time period as my Joel and Mehetable.
I would like to be able to fill in a few blanks on this family, as well
as to find the parents of both Joel DELONG and Mehetable SMITH.
