McGinnis in Ohio early to late 1800's
Any information or possible connection with the following McGinnis family members from the early to late 1800's in
Hardin County, Ohio.
William McGinnis and his son Benjamin Franklin McGinnis both served in the Civil War. William is buried at the Sandusky Military Cemetary while his son Benjamin is buried in Hardin County, Ohio. Mary Catherine, John, Emily, James, William, Susan Belinda and Margaret S. were Benjamin Franklin McGinnis brothers and sisters. It is believed that some moved to Oregon, Iowa and Colorado in the 1800's.
Brief family line is: Paul McGinnis (born 1804)son is William McGinnis son is Benjamin Franklin McGinnis son is John McGinnis son is Carl McGinnis son is Harold McGinnis son is James McGinnis (me). Quick recap from 1804 to present of my direct line. Lots of brothers and sisters but I am trying to keep this brief.
We know that members of our family are buried in Ohio, Colorado, Oregon and California. Oldest living family member is 92 with excellent memory and good health.
Kind Regards,
James McGinnis
