Hi, Marylou,
I'm in Columbus, OH at a conference right now (and might get up to the state archives later today if there's a bus). I really don't know much about the other branchs of the family beyond what's on the web and what's in the Satterthwaite book (which is at home). Suicide has occurred more than once, which makes me wonder whether there was a streak of depression in the family. Alvah committed suicide and there was at least one Keneipp who died in a state hospital (per my 3rd cousin) and one who died of acute alcoholism.
According to my notes, a copy of the will has been published (it may be reprodced in the Satterthwaite book)--I can see if there's a copy of the will in the archives if I get up there today, but my impression is that those are kept at the county level.
I'll try to get back to your message when I get back from Columbus next week and see if the Satterthwaite book (which has some inaccuracies as all of these do) has more on the lines you're interested in.
