Hi, nice to hear from you :)
Valentine (1783, MD) and Elizabeth (1787, MD) were married 1807 in MD. They emigrated to Ohio--here's a bit of information from them from a county history:
"Valentine and Elizabeth Barns (sic) emigrated from Maryland to Holmes County, Ohio, in 1817, and in the fall of 1836 came to Cass Township and settled on Section 10. Four sons and three daughters came with them, some of whom were full grown. The parents died on the old homestead. Ezra is perhaps the best remembered of the family. He was born in Maryland in 1815. In 1839 he married Elizabeth Albertson, of Cass Township, who bore him eight children, and died in 1880. Mr. Karns survived his wife about two years. He was a very enterprising citizen, and assisted in organizing the Hancock County Agricultural Society, in the success of which he always took the deepest interest. Mr. Karns was long recognized as one of the solid, substantial farmers of the county." from A History of Hancock Co. OH-Cass Twp
They had 12 children--Magdalena was my ancestress, David your ancestor. A total of 8 sons and 4 daughters.
David, as you no doubt know, was b. 1828 in Holmes Co., OH and married Margaret Hine (b. c. 1832, OH) 1853 in Holmes Co. Their child Emily or Emma (1867 IN) married Thomas G. Haviland 1891 in Owen Co., IN, and here I lose track--but I am sure you have good record. In the 1900 census they have 4 children.
If you would like a family group sheet with more detail for any of these folks, please feel free to contact me by email--my address should be available on my profile, if not, leave me another note here.
Happy Thanksgiving,
George
