Mary Ann's Siblings(cont)




Here is a look at the rest of the brothers and sisters of my Great-Grandmother, Mary Ann Houseworth.

Elizabeth "Libby" Houseworth(1846-1923)

Libby was born in Delaware County, Ohio, in 1846, she married Sam Patton on August 29, 1868, in Waldo. This family moved to Michigan sometime after 1871....Libby lived in Michigan until her death on November 1, 1923. Samuel Patton was born in Marion County, Ohio, on July 19, 1844, he died in Gratiot County, Michigan, on May 25, 1928.


This couple had the following children:

Cora Bell born 1869 in Marion County, Ohio. died 1947 in Michigan
Catherine born 1871 in Marion, County, died 1960 in Michigan
Johnny Patton born 1877 in Michigan, died 2/8/1879 in Carson City, MI
Henry Patton born 1878 in Michigan, died at one day of age, Carson City
William Patton born 2/10/1879 in Carson City, MI, died 1966 in Michigan
Tim Patton born 2/10/1879(twin of William) died on July 4, 1974 in Carson City.

John P. Houseworth(1848-1932)
John Houseworth married Emma Jones in Waldo, they had the following Children:

Flora, Effie, Jay and Ben Houseworth

Maria Houseworth (1857-post 1885)

Maria was married at least twice. First to the infamous Enoch Young(of the Murder in Waldo fame), with whom she had two children, Perry and Daisy Young. After Enoch went to prison for murder in the Israel Bensley, she eventually married Al Anderson, with whom she had four additional children. Jeff Anderson is one, the other 3 I do not have names or dates of. Maria was alive in 1885 when the photo with siblings was taken in Payne, Ohio....I do not know what happened to her after that....however, I do know that Perry Young was killed about 1915 by a train in the city of Kenton.

Frances Houseworth(1863-past 1885)

Frances married Charlie Roads. This family, like many of the other children and relatives of Frederick and Solomon Houseworth moved to Paulding County, Ohio, in the 1870s. The following are the known children of Frances and Charlie.

Blanch, Eve, Fern, Zeff(?) and Cecil...the first 2 were born in Marion County, the youngest 3 in Paulding County.

Amanda Louise Houseworth(1864-1938)

The youngest of Fred and Ursula's children was born in Delaware County, Ohio, in 1864, she died in Marion County, in 1938. Amanda married William C. Luellen on July 2, 1882, in Waldo, Ohio.
William and Amanda Luellen had 2 known children:

Infant Luellen-no other know information(this usually means the child died at or near birth).
Mabel Jane Luellen born in Waldo on 9/14/1904...if this is correct, it means Amanda starter her family late in life, about the age of 40...which may be correct, but does not seem probable for those times.

Mable Luellen and her husband Edwin Jacoby(also born in Waldo) had a son named John Jacoby, who moved his family to Southern California, when members of the family reside today.

HI
Great Web site, I am having a lot of fun loing at the pics etc.
One thing I need to correct is that William and Tim Patton, sons of Libby Houseworth and Samuel Patton, were not twins.
I believe williamn was indeed a twin, but actually his brother died one day after birth, and was not named in Feb of 1879.
"Grandpa Tim" was actually born in 8/12/1888, nine years later.
