WALTER, GOEBELT, SWIN, SWINN, REIMUND
I am looking for the person or descendant who wrote a Walter/Goebelt family history. No author listed, probably done in the 1970’s. It was distributed among family members.
ALSO I am collecting information (1855+) on Swin/Swinn to put into booklet form. Have many records already but would like to hear from descendants.
Would like to contact descendants of John Nicholas and Mary (Swin) Reimund. I have early records but would like to fill in later generations.
—Helen Hunt Read, Toledo, OH 43623-1638

OWENS
Seeking info Archibald Owens, b ca 1827, perhaps in Clinton Co., later lived in Paulding Co. or Henry Co. Wife Diana, sons George Towne, Elias W., and Isaac. George had sons William, Burt, Samuel, Clinton, and Allen. Does anyone have info on family Bibles from this family?
