Having confirmed from this end (over the pond) that my
great-great-grandmother was named Martha FOREHEAD (not sure about the
Harris) who had a daughter named Hannah Harris, I'd like to see if I can
find a census entry for the family. Hannah Harris's death certificate
(Hannah Harris ROBERTS) states her maiden name as Harris but it's not
real clear.
My mother, deceased, said that Hannah Harris was 'adopted.' Don't know
if she was born out of wedlock and then adopted by Mr. Forehead, or if
something else occurred. The family thinks Glamorgan but can't prove or
discount that.
Both are apparently buried in Tallmadge, Ohio, USA according to the
following note:
Martha Forehead, Late Resident of Akron, Ohio, Born in Wales, 9/6/1817,
Died 6/13/1900 of Apoplexy, Buried 6/15/1900, Lot #68 (looks like) in
Tallmadge.
83 years, 9 months, 7 days. There was info on Henry Forehead born
2/5/1857 in Wales too, also buried in Tallmadge.
Thanks for any help and may your holidays and the new year be blessed and
happy.
