    • According to Bruce Pottorff (jan 2000): The names and birth dates of the children also came from the EAQG and from the will of Adah (Winder) Beck in Wabash County, IN. I think all the children except Sylvester were born in Columbiana County, Ohio. Sylvester was born in Harrison County, Ohio. I haven't yet determined when John and Adah moved to Harrison County.
      The dates and places of death of John and Adah came from, Obituaries in Wabash Co., IN. abstracted by Ronald L. Woodward.
      The EAQG lists the parents of William and Adah (Bradford) Winder. In a Bradfield genealogy I found Adah's mother's maiden name was Bradfield as was her father's. I have no documentation of that, yet, but it looks very authentic.

      The marriage was performed by Jabez Coulson JP

  • Notes 
    • Bruce Pottorff, 24 Jan 2000
      [snip]
      The marriage information for Adah Winder and John Beck came from the Columbiana County Ohio Marriage Records, Volumes I & II, May 17, 1803 - August 16, 1833 and the Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy, Volume IV.
      I know nothing about a marriage to Mr. Cope. It is unlikely as it was not mentioned in the (above) EAQG.
      The names and birth dates of the children also came from the EAQG and from the will of Adah (Winder) Beck in Wabash County, IN. I think all the children except Sylvester were born in Columbiana County, Ohio. Sylvester was born in Harrison County, Ohio. I haven't yet determined when John and Adah moved to Harrison County.
      The dates and places of death of John and Adah came from, Obituaries in Wabash Co., IN. abstracted by Ronald L. Woodward.
      The EAQG lists the parents of William and Adah (Bradford) Winder. In a Bradfield genealogy I found Adah's mother's maiden name was Bradfield as was her father's. I have no documentation of that, yet, but it looks very authentic.
      Now, here is what I do have. I hope it of use to you. Let me know if something looks questionable or illogical.
