Hello listers I am new to the list and am looking for information that would
verify the below couples childrens names. You see the family bible and who is
buried and when they were buried does not match. Below is the family.
1 Moses McCARTY
----------------------------------------
Birth: 30 Jan 1820, Cheshire twp. Gallia county, OH
Death: 6 Jun 1911, Furnas county, Beaver City, NE
Occ: Farmer
Father: Jonas McCARTY (1791-1851)
Mother: Esther S RIFE (1791-1884)
Eight children from union to Elizabeth Cummins?
1850 Gallia County Cheshire Twp #0947, 9/2/1850
McCarty, Moses, 30, farmer, $0, OH
Mary, 27, OH
Esther E, 6, OH
Mary E, 4, OH
Moses W, 2, OH
Sarah J, 6 mo, OH
.Moses first wife and most of his children died in some sort of outbreak.
This is taken from the cemetery record for Pleasant Hill Cemetery, located
in Randolph Co., Jackson Twp. INdiana. This cemetery is located next the
the Jay/Randolph county line (Madison Twp. of Jay County.)
page 24
McCarty, Ester Evaline, daughter of Moses and Mary McCarty, died November
16, 1855, 5y 9m 15d. "Remember me you pass by . As you are now, so once
was I, As I am now, you soon must be, Prepare for death and follow me."
McCarty, Jonas W. November 24, 1859 Aged 3y 8m 13d.
McCarty, S.J. died November 28, 1859, aged 9y 8m 10d. "Weep not for me dear
mother. All is well, All is well."
McCarty, Fasta R. died November 25, 1859, aged 12 years 5 days. "Weep not
for me dear mother. All is well. All is well."
McCarty, Nissordrie, 1859, aged 1y 9m 20d.
McCarty, John e. December 26, 1859, aged 3y, 6m, 25d
McCarty, Mary, Born December 26, 1822, died June 3, 1901, aged 78y 5m 7d.
They certainly lost a lot of children at one time. All of this may only
muddy the waters for you as this Mary did not die until 1901. Does that
mean that this Mary and Moses were divorced?
pg. 25.
McCarty, Infant, daughter of M. and E. McCarty.
died February 7, 1867.
McCarty, U.S. Grant, Son of M. & E. McCarty. Died April 16, 1866, aged 12
years, 4 months, 14days.
These appear to be Moses and Elizabeth. From the birthdates of these
children, Moses and Elizabeth would have had to be married before 1852.
It is interesting to note that these people are all buried in a line with a
Nathan Darst, 8 year of son of Wm, and Barbara who died in 1860 buried
between John E. and Mary.
In the next row behind these is Wm and Barbara Darst., Mary Elizabe Ault and
then the two children of M.& E, McCarty.
Checking the 1870 census I found
In Madison Twp., page 14, household 106 family 106.
