Less detail
Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Frank Sherman Coy was born on 14 Mar 1891 (son of Kennett Knox Coy and Hannah Amelia Stambaugh); died before 1900.

    Notes:

    The only record of a child named Frank Coy in the Columbiana County, Ohio vital records between 1867 and 1900 is for the death record of Frank Coy who died at age 6 on 25 June 1889 in Leetonia having also been born in Leetonia. This does not equate with the birth date for Frank Sherman Coy which Mrs. Bush Packey identified, however, though there is no record of the source from which she obtained that birthdate.


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Kennett Knox Coy was born in 23 Jun 1859 or 1861 in Pennsylvania, United States; died in 1945 in Columbania, Ohio, United States; was buried in Grove Hill Cemetery, Hanoverton, Columbiana, Ohio, United States.

    Notes:

    In the 1910 Columbiana County, Ohio Census, "Kennet" is residing with his son, Harvey, and Harvey's family.

    From a letter written by Louise (Mrs. Russell) Stokey Coy on 6 June 1981:

    "At the age of 3, Ken Coy left his [Russell's] mother
    with seven kids to bring up, feed, and clothe. He was
    raised in poverty and grew up with a deep sense of
    hatred for his father so he was never curious about the
    Coy background. The only father he ever knew was his
    stepfather, Frank Drake, who was truly a good man but
    was crippled so he didn't earn enough money to support
    a large family, if it hadn't been for Joe Faloon whose
    home they lived in they would have gone hungry."

    Ken and his first wife, though they both had remarried, are buried next to each other.

    In the 1930 Columbiana County, Ohio Census, Kenn resides in Hanover Twp. and lives alone as the Head of Household. He provides his age as 68 years, born in Pennsylvania to parents born in Ohio (his mother was born in Indiana), and states that he is widowed. His occupation is identified as a farmer on a "general farm".

    His father's Pension File states that Ken was born in 1861 though his tombstone states 1859. However, the fact that he is not listed as born in the 1860 Pennsylvania Census suggests that the Pension File provides the correct year.

    Kennett married Hannah Amelia Stambaugh. Hannah (daughter of John C. Stambaugh and Harriet Eidenire) was born on 1 Nov 1860; died on 30 Mar 1927 in Hanover, Columbiana, Ohio, United States; was buried in Grove Hill Cemetery, Hanoverton, Columbiana, Ohio, United States.

  2. 3.  Hannah Amelia Stambaugh was born on 1 Nov 1860 (daughter of John C. Stambaugh and Harriet Eidenire); died on 30 Mar 1927 in Hanover, Columbiana, Ohio, United States; was buried in Grove Hill Cemetery, Hanoverton, Columbiana, Ohio, United States.

    Notes:

    Jackie Woodring, a granddaughter of George Diezman and his first wife, Annie Long, in a September 1990 letter remarked that her Aunt Ethel remembered Hannah and that she was a singer or that she "sang a lot".

    According to her death certificate, Hannah died due to indigestion with influenza being a secondary cause. In spite the fact that both she and her first husband, Kennett, remarried following their divorce, they are buried next to each other.

    Notes:

    Ken and Hannah were divorced between 1901 and 1907, probably in Columbiana County, Ohio.

He was awarded an honorable discharge on 22 June 1865 in Murfreesboro, Tennessee having been "...disabled by chronic diarrhea resulting in disease of stomach kidneys and piles contracted also in the winter of 1865 at Murfreesboro, Tennessee."

    His widow's Declaration of a Widow for original Pension states that John died of Chronic gastritis due to his military service.

    On his Pension Application which John signed on 20 Dec 1897, he spelled his surname STOMBAUGH.

    John's obituary in a local Columbiana County newspaper published in December 1917 and kept on file at Lepper Library in Lisbon, Ohio states the following:

    "AGED MAN DIES AT HANOVERTON"

    "John Stambaugh, aged 84 years, one of the oldest and most widely known residents of Hanoverton, died at his home there a few days ago, death being due to old age. There are surviving three daughters, Mrs Stackhouse, of Salem, Mrs. Geisman of Ravenna [actually Diezman] and Mrs. Hannah Drake of Hanoverton. A son lives in Youngstown. Two brothers also survive: Strawn Stambaugh, of Alliance and Jacob Stambaugh of Salineville."

    "The decesaed was for many years engaged in the manufacture of pumps in Hanoverton, and the old town pump, which has stood in the village for more than 25 years was made by him and is still in use."
