FamilySearch database of the 1880 Census, Newton, Licking, OH, has Abner G. BELT, 66, carpenter, OH MD MD; wf. Larna A. {Laura?}, 50 [!], OH OH VA; dau. Ellen, 13, & {son or other?} Charles VORIS, 23.

I haven't checked primary records for Abner & his parents, but I think it's this branch of the family of Humphrey BELT, b. ca. 1615; to VA 1635; to MD by 1663:

John BELT (16 Oct. 1769, MD - 1855, OH; s/o John BELT & Dinah LANE) m. ca. 1796, PA, Elizabeth BAUMGARDNER, b. ca. 1775. John BELT & Eliz. had

Abner, b. ca. 1814
Jeremiah, b. ca. 1815+

Jeremiah may be the one that d. 15 Apr. 1884, Columbus, OH; m. 28 S 1841, Joanna BROWN, who d. 1852.

Raymond may be the one of Logan, Hocking Co., OH, 1880, aged 61, OH MD MD; wf. Susan, 54, MD, near Frank, 24, OH, who may be a son.

John BELT (27 Apr. 1729- 23 Dec. 1814, Licking Co., OH) m. Dinah LANE (19 S 1739 - 12 N 1799, d/o Dutton & Diana). John, b. 1729, was son of another John (ca. 1703 - 1 Dec. 1788, will pr. 18 F 1789, Balto. Co., MD), who was s/o John BELT (1678 - 1745?) who m. 10 Feb. 1701/2, West R., AA, MD, Lucy LAWRENCE. John BELT, b. 1678, was s/o John BELT (ca. 1650 - will pr. Nov. 1698, AA, MD), & Elizabeth [probably TYDINGS] (ca. 1660 - will pr. 1737, AA, MD).

If the line is as I think it is, then Abner was of John BELT 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, of Humphrey BELT (1) & Margery CRAGGES.
