BALL, LINE, LINES, LYON, LYONS
I am looking for information on my great-great-great grandfather, Joseph H. Line, born about 1817 in Ohio in either Shelby Co. or Logan Co. His son (my gg grandfather), John William Line, was born in Shelby Co., Ohio on 3/26/1852 and was the third child of the family (at least 7 are known, Jacob L., Andrew J., Harrison J., Susan E., Joseph, and Mary L.). Joseph was married to Elizabeth Ball on 10/3/1847 in Shelby Co., from what we know, and she was born about 1824 in Ohio, possibly Shelby Co. or Logan Co., as well. My gg grandfather, John W., was married to Caroline Strausburg. Joseph and family appear in the 1860 and 1870 Censuses for Logan County that we have as Lyons in 1860 and Line in 1870. Any info on his parents, birth date and place, death date and place, etc. would be great! Also, any info on any Line, Lines, Lyon, Lyons families would be great too. My cousin, Greg Line, and I are doing research in hopes of writing a book on the Line Family. I can be reached at jline@e-mail.com or 31230 Country Way, Farmington Hills, MI 4833. Thank you!!!
