Hey, you found my family. You found the same children as I did for Reuben and Matilda. Joseph may have lived, but I have not found him. It looks like Abe and Margaret, both born in OH, were the only ones who survived. Reuben Corder household is in Mad River Twp., Champaign County, OH in 1840. Reuben married Matilda Shockey in Champaign County, OH in 1839. She was the daughter of Abraham and Nancy (Rector) Shockey. She was the fourth cousin of the Rector who was governor of AR at the outbreak of the Civil War and the Wharton (or Elias) Rector who was the Indian Supervisor of Oklahoma Territory. His office was in Ft. Smitth. Elias Rector m. Catherine in Crawford Co. They owned land near the confluence of the AR River and Frog Bayou. Perhaps Reuben and Matilda moved nearby.
I need to go back to review the records of Franklin County, AR. There may be more records I have not found. Another researcher found Margaret Corder and Ed Hassett's marriage record in Franklin Coounty. I am still attempting to figure out how or why Reuben and Matilda picked Franklin County when they left OH. I did discover that they were living next door to Joseph and Kizzie Ashing in 1850 in Middle Twp. Kizzie (Shockey) Ashing was Matilda's sister. There is also a Bailey family living nearby who has a minor named Nancy Johns. A Mary Ann Corder m. Elza Twigg in Champaign County, OH in 1844. She may have been Reuben's sister. In 1850, she and Elza have a minor named Malcus Johns living with them. So this Bailey family may also be related but I do not know how.
I found a Civil War record for an Abraham Corder who signed up in Greenfield, Clinton Co., OH. He fought with the Union. He stated he was born in Clinton, OH. I just found some Corder marriages that took place in Clinton Co., OH. I plan to find them soon.
In 1870, there is an Eliza Rush living with Reuben and Matilda. My Aunt told me that her grandmother was Eliza June Rush. I found an Eliza A Rush in Mt twp., Crawford Co., AR in 1860. The Louisa A , wife, ,may have been a misspelling of Eliza. They seem to be the same age. In 1894 a Mrs Eliza Corder, widow, m. Anderson Sanders in Crawford Co., AR. There is an obituary in the Van Buren Press that stated Mrs Eliza Sanders, widow of Abraham Corder died in 1894. However, Abe's last child, John, was born in 1881 so, although unlikely, there could have been another marriage. There is an Eliza Rush living with James Rush in the 1880 census, Shepherd Twp., Crawford Co, AR. She was also born at the same time as Louisa A. and Eliza Corder
