Ah thank you!  I have many who emigrated to Ohio (Gilmore's, Sherman's, McGravey/McGreevey, Foley) and can't wait to get more info.  It is so hard to find info. on ancestors in their own countries, who left Ireland or Scotland (for the states) Ohio/midwest and even Virginia.

The YouTube Video used would be very helpful in the WT -US- OHIO profiles to help explain OHIO history. Also in the Youtube comments should be added if u want to know about YOUR OHIO FAMILY HISTORY GO TO WIKITREE. ITS FREE TO SEE OTHERS LOOKING FOR THEIR FAMILY IN THE BUCKEYE STATE that I LOVE. Great for LINK Builders.
