I am seeking information on the above families plus a few more.
Daniel FOUST, son of Jacob FOUST and Catherine LADY, was born in
Pennsylvania (Westmoreland Co.) and he married Fannie STROUP. I don't
have any information on her. They moved to Highland Co. Ohio and by 1860
they had moved to Wells Co. Indiana. One of his sons was Joseph FOUST
born in Highland Co. Ohio in 1827. Joseph married Margaret GRAY on
2-16-1855 in Wells Co. Indiana. Their children were Abraham 1857, Jacob
1859. Charles 4-1862 and Nancy Elizabeth dob is unknown. Nancy married
Joseph Henry FOREMAN (also seen as FORMAN) 8-30-1892. Nancy died on
9-3-1929. Joseph Henry (he went by Henry) FOREMAN was the son of Leonard
FOREMAN and Julia Ann BOWEN. He was born in Chester township, Wells Co.
Indiana, on 12-29-1867. The other children in this family were Margaret
(married name GRAY), Ona (married name PENROD), Ida (married to Alonzo
CARNEY), William, never married, and Bert who married Stella Anne JULIAN.
I have no information further back than Leonard FOREMAN, Julia Ann BOWEN,
Margaret GRAY, Fannie STROUP, Jacob FOUST or Catherine LADY. I know
there is a book on the FOUSTfamily, but I have not been able to locate
this book. If anyone knows where I could buy this book please, please,
please write.
The children of Henry and Nancy FOREMAN were Elvira Mae dob 1-08-1901,
William, Vaughn, Ines and Guy Lester dob 4-11-1907. Elvira Mae married
Dorse (Dorris) Julian on 8-18-1919 in Wells Co. Indiana.
The JULIAN (JULIEN) side of my family is more than a little confusing. I
am able to go back to James William JULIEN dob 1810 in Ohio. He married
Martha KNOTT dob 1807 in Ohio. Their children were Alexander dob 1846,
Charles dob 1848, Mary Eliza dob 1849, David Wilson dob 3-31-1853,
Clarrissa, Tiffin R. (male) 1851, Martha and Jimmy. It is my belief that
James was related to RENE de ST JULIEN. I don't have any proof but many
clues seem to point that way. If any one knows who the parents of James
and Martha were you would earn my eternal thanks. David Wilson JULIEN
married Amanda Jane JOHNSON dob 1-18-1858 in Ohio. Amanda was the child
of Erastus JOHNSON and Phoebe SILLS. Phoebe dob 1838 was the daughter of
David SILLS and Elizabeth SILLS (they were cousins). I have absolutely
no information about Erastus JOHNSON. Another little mystery is the
CARNEY family. At one time the father of Alonzo CARNEY, Calvin CARNEY,
along with who I assume was his brother, lived with James and Martha
JULIEN in Ohio. Also there is a CARNEY/SILLS marriage. Also you might
have noticed that the GRAY surname appears in the FOUST, FOREMAN and
JULIAN families. The JULIAN name turns up in the FOREMAN and CARNEY
family.
David and Amanda moved to Wells Co. Indiana. Their children were Mary
Florence 12-07-1877 (died in infancy), Eli 3-29-1880 (died in infancy),
Charley (Charles) 11-11-1881, married Mary GRAY, John Franklin 7-27-1884,
married Blanche HUNNICUTT, Della Mae 7-06-1886, married Carl KEMMEL,
Stella Anne 10-5-1887, married Bert FOREMAN, Cynthia Ellen 1-27-1889,
died in infancy, Dorris(Dorse) 12-17-1890, married Elvira Mae FOREMAN,
Alonzo 12-18-1892, married Emily Cecile BLANCHARD, and James William
12-05-1894, married Mary WOODRUFF.
I will stop at this point as I know how confusing a long letter can be. I
would appreciate information on any of these surnames.
