1. | ![]() Notes: Ira Morgan Barnhouse was born 14 Aug 1848 at Sharon, Noble County, Ohio. His youth was spent on a farm at the place of his birth. He enlisted in Co. B, 66th Ohio Volunteer Infantry* when but 15 years of age and served in the Union Army under Gen. Sherman on his triumphal [and unnecessarily destructive] "March to the Sea" through Georgia from Atlanta to Savannah then north through the Carolinas to Washington DC. He was honorably discharged at Louisville Kentucky July 20, 1865. He taught school in Ohio and Missouri from 1867 to 1873. He was married 3 Aug 1875 to Mary Francis Albin at Laurelville, Hocking County, Ohio to which union three children were born: Perl Travisd, Edna Maude, and Rose Ann Elizabeth. He engaged in various mercantile and industrial pursuits removing to Missouri, Nebraska, and Colorado in turn. He homesteaded February 1887 near Abbott, Washington County, Colorado. He was a Mason, having taken the degrees in Caldwell, Missouri at the age of 21. He was a Presbyterian by faith, having united with that church in 1876. His love of home and family gave him zeal and persistence in the field of human endeavor in their behalf. His wonderful energy but slight physical strength culminated in his enforced retirement from the more arduous labor of farm life in 1904 at which time he came to Akron, Colo. His confidence in its future was manifested in his real estate promotions at a time when many faltered. A nearly fatal accident** on 7 Nov 1907 from which he recovered through his power of will alone, left an imperfect cicatrice*** on his cheek. He was elected County Judge and began service in 1908. The facial problem he received in his accident, however, began to trouble him in 1911. It developed into cancer a year later and he was forced to resign his judgeship in 1912. The unequal struggle ended in his death at the Hahnemann Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., at four o'clock on the fourth day of April, 1914. Ira married Mary Francis Albin on 4 Aug 1875 in Laurelville, Hocking Co, Ohio. Mary (daughter of William Slater Albin and Elizabeth Ann Tribby) was born on 20 Oct 1854 in Laurelville, Hocking Co, Ohio; died on 8 Jan 1924 in Akron, Washington Co, Colorado; was buried on 10 Jan 1924 in Akron Cemetery, Washington Co, Colorado.

[Group Sheet] [Family Chart] |
5. | Notes: From History of Steubenville and Jefferson County, Ohio, the name Susannah Fuchs was Americanized to Susan Fox. From Dodd, Jordan R., et al.. Early American Marriages: Virginia to 1850 her name is Susannah Fox. On her gravestone her given name is spelled "Susannah". Therefore, to be consistent I will retain the Germanic spelling of both given and surname. Notes: Married:

6. | Charles Tarrance McCune was born on 6 Dec 1784 in Ireland; died on 6 Apr 1861 in Noble County, Ohio; was buried in St Michael's Cemetery, Stock Twp, Noble Co, Ohio. Notes: Summary of Carolyn McCune's research on Tarry McCuneA. On October 31, 1811, Charles may have arrived in the Port of Philadelphia aboard the "Harmony", a ship sailing from Londonderry, as there was a Charles McCoun who was listed as being on that ship. The Captain's name was Holkirk. The voyage took 70 days. B. In 1823-24, Charles and his family moved to Morgan County, Ohio where they may have settled near Belle Valley. They were members of St. Michael's Catholic Church built in 1841 at the site of St. Michael's Cemetery until 1900 when it was moved to Berne, Ohio about one mile away. C. From the "History of Noble County, Ohio" (L.H. Watkins and Co., 1887) 'Charles McCune and John Reed were both Irishmen and early settlers...St. Michael's Roman Catholic church was established in 1841. The building, a brick structure, was erected in that year through the efforts of Michael Archer and under the direction of Rev. Father Murphy. Michael Archer and his brothers, Simon and Nathan, with their families, constituted the original membership. Other early members were the Doyles, McCunes, Cullens, Harknesses and others. Prior to 1841 the settlement had been visited by Fathers Reed, McCallion and Finley. D. According to a deed provided by Morgan County Ohio Recorder of Deeds: James Reed sold land for $170 to Tarrance McCune on 1 April 1824, "it being one hundred acres...all that part or parcel...lying and being on west side of Duck Creek of the northeast quarter of Section 29, Township 7, Range 9" of the lands sold at Zanesville by the act of Congress. The deed was signed on 21 April 1824 by James Reed and Rachel Reed. Attest David NcGary and Peter Fogle. E. According to www.glorecords.blm.gov on internet, James Reed had been original purchaser of land in and around Belle Valley, including 80 acres in Twp 7N, Range 9W, Section 29 which is the same section where William McCune and Joseph McCune had their land when the 1876 map of Noble Township, Noble County was printed. F. According to the "Morgan Co, Ohio Common Pleas Minute Book E" Tarrance was naturalized in Morgan County, Ohio under the Act of 1828. It indicates that he was a native of Ireland and had proved that he had resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States, before the 18th day of June 1812. Charles married Sabria (wife of Charles Tarrance McCune) [?] about 1815 in Possibly New Jersey. Sabria was born about 1794 in New Jersey; died about 1870 in Noble County, Ohio.

8. | ![]() Notes: Christoph[1] Bornhaus (14 Oct 1757 in Datterode Hessen-Kassel[2] - 1 May 1833 in Springfield Twp, Jefferson County, Ohio) Christoph married Rosina Roller on 11 Aug 1784 in Lovettsville, Loudoun Co, Virginia. Rosina (daughter of Johann Andreas Roller and Rosina (wife of Johann Andreas Roller) [?]) was born on 9 Jul 1759 in Bucks County Pennsylvania; died on 20 Jul 1825 in Springfield Twp, Jefferson Co, Ohio. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart] |
9. | ![]() Notes: I have settled on "Rosina" as her given name because baptismal records of the New Jerusalem Church, York County, Pennsylvania show this spelling in 1785 when their first child, George was born. Note that "Rosannah" is used on her gravestone. The language of origin of 'Rosina' is Germanic and Latin but Rosannah is not a variant form of the name. Rosina has not been used as a girl's given name since 1934 in the U.S. Notes: Married:
