Less Notes The McGinness Family, pages 98-99, paragraph 1, "FAMILY OF ELIZABETH (McGINNESS) GELVIN, OF NEVILLE, CLERMONT COUNTY, OHIO.

ELIZABETH McGINNESS, the youngest daughter of William and Martha (Wilson) McGinness, was born, I as near as can be estimated, about the year 1793,

in Staunton Augusta county, Virginia, and was but a child when her parents removed to Allegheny county, Pa., and thence to Shenango township, Crawford county, Pa., where her girlhood days were spent.

She was married, when quite young, about the year 1810, to Jeremiah Gelvin, who was born May 2, 1788, in Pennsylvania, though of Irish descent — son of James and Nancy Gelvin. Several years after marriage, they located in Neville, Clermont county, Ohio, where Mr. Gelvin pur- chased, from Morgan Neville, one hundred acres of land. He was engaged in farming, carpentering, and hewing timber.

Elizabeth Gelvin died in Neville, Ohio, some time between the years 1822 and 1826, but the exact date has not been ascertained. She was buried in a neighboring burying ground, about two miles from Neville. The graveyard has long since been abandoned.

Mr. Gelvin was afterwards married, Nov. 20, 1826, to Temperance Liggett, by whom he had five children — Kate, now Mrs. McKee ; James H., now living in Augusta, Ky.; Mary Ann, now Mrs. Massy ; Joseph and Washing- ton. Temperance Gelvin died in the year 1858. Mr. Gelvin continued to reside in Neville until his death, which

occurred in the spring of 1861. He was buried in the vicinity of Neville. For many years before his death he was a member of the Baptist church.

Jeremiah and Elizabeth (McGinness) Gelvin had six children born to them, viz., Emily, William, Martha, Mar- garet, Elizabeth, and John."
