Additional
Information:
John Limber b
1765, came to Woodcock township in the late 1700s. He married twice in
Crawford county. He sold his farm in Woodcock and taught school in Meadville
after his first wife died in 1816. in census of 1810 he is listed in Meadville
with 2 males under 10 and one female between 16 and 25. one son was Thomas
Jefferson Limber (used T J Limber usually as there were other Thomas
Limber). b 1807, married Angeline Kincade.
The other son I
am not sure of, it may have been Isaac Limber b 1804 in Pa who married Nancy
Kerr had 11children and lived in Talmage co (spelling?), Ohio. His
descendants (sometimes found as Limbers and even Limbert) were and still
are in Crawford and Mercer co., Pa and many more are in Ohio today.
Some
descendants from 1800s are Thomas, Christopher, John C , Charles C, Francis,
William W , Evalynn Bell ,Emma and many others.
My great x 3
grandfather was john limber, he lived in Western VA, although he was born
in Pa. I have not established the exact connection, I am sure they were of
the same family. However, I have collected a lot of information on John
Limber of Crawford co and his descendants in Crawford and Mercer. They are
mentioned in the History of Crawford Co. and can be found in census
after 1810. John died in Meadville in 1852. In the Mercer census they are
in Salem, Sandy Creek, and Sheakleyville. A Susan Limber born about 1800,
I have heard married an early resident of Sheakleyville.
