Message Board Post:
I may descend from a sister of Lewis. Benjamin C. Keller lists that he stayed with his
uncle when he first moved to Blackford County. Benjamin's mother was named Rodebaugh
or variant there of as was his step mother. His mother though was born in NY as was his
aunt, wife of David K. Keller, also with Rodebaugh as a maiden name. Both women were NY
born and married brothers, Martin and David K. Keller in Fairfield County, OH. While I
have no sister listed for Martin, I do have indications of uncles named Keller some of
whom may have come west about the same time. There are also apparently unrelated Keller
families in Fairfield County, OH at that time. I have one other possible connection,
Martin Keller administers the estate of a Rodebaugh in the 1840's but there was only
inventory and sale records in the package according to an index I found. This remains to
be tracked down further.
Please respond if you are still working this line. I would like to compare notes.
