PARMENTER & French Settler History
I am researching the HESSON family of Darke Co., Ohio.
Within "The HESSON Story" a genealogical study written in 1979, there is a newspaper clipping entitled, "French Settler History Written by Lois Ann Baker"
Some of the paragraphs are transcribed below which include references to the surname this message is posted to:
"A deed to St. Valbert's Cemetary, Versailles, Ohio, is recorded in French on page 105 of Deed Book No. 1, Darke County, Ohio.Following this deed are recorded documents that are relative to the deeding of the St. Valbert's to the Monsignor.This document was dated March 4, 1863, and was written by Father L.
