Re: Sarah Rupley Esterline/Pennsylvania

Mikederr44 — 2008-02-27 00:06:46Z

Hello, I am also researching a string of Esterlines and I was wondering if Ruben Esterline of Maryland or Pennsylvania or any of his brothers married girls from pennsylvania and then traveled to Ohio. If perhaps any of these women became ill and went home to die. I am trying to figure out how my Elizabeth Esterline in 1860, Maryland, is not associated with any family prior. Any help or thoughts appreciated. Thank- you Mike Derringer

Rupley - WIlliams Co OH/Hillsdale and Lenawee Cos Michigan

JohnLaird91 — 2006-12-30 03:31:25Z

John Rupley married Barbara Ann Kinney, most likely in Williams County, Ohio about 1856. They had at least nine children: Melvin, Melvina, Mary, Jacob, Margaret, John, Bertha, Ida, and Sarah, born between 1857 and 1879. By 1900, most family members were in Hillsdale County, Michigan, and by the 1910/20 period, many moved on to Lenawee County, Michigan. I am interested in this family due to my Kinney connection, and would happily exchange information with anyone interested.

BWalsh9024 — 2006-05-29 19:08:48Z

Samuel Lewis Bear and Mary Rupely are my gg-grandpareents. Trying to find addt'l info about their parents. Not aware of remarriage. Would like to trade info.

Re: Mary Rupley of PA ca1828

clg18057 — 2005-10-30 01:15:31Z

Additionally, my older relatives seem to remember her being from and married in Cumberland County. She lived for a while in Peoria, Illinois before moving to Plano, Iowa. She went to California in the 1860's with Samuel, where he died in 1864. She is then supposed to have moved to Pennsylvania with their children, then back to Plano, Iowa.

She remarried (to Josiah Bowman) at some point. She's listed as Mary Bowman in the 1880 US Census with marital status "Widowed" and "Divorced" in the 1900 US Census.

Just a little reminder. Have you had a chance to ask your friend about this?

I have had someone else request info the the Holverstott/Rupley/Oneil link.

Thanks!

I would like to find out more about Jane Mcneil (or Oneil) and John Rupley. She may be a sister to Elizabeth Holverstott, but I can't figure out how. I have a lot of papers about Holverstott, Morris & Rupley & the big women wagon train & can't fill in the blanks.

RUBLI > RUPLEY

rugeg — 2005-06-24 23:47:03Z

Looking for any information on the children and grandchildren of Johan Jacob Rubli, the swiss mennonite who married Barbara Loughman, daughter of Casper and ? Loughman, Lancaster CO, PA. It appears that J. Jacob Rubli became Jacob Rupley, according to his will probated in E. Pennsboro Twp, Cumberland CO, PA.

Jacob Rubli/Rupley was named in a couple of deeds in Lancaster CO, PA circa 1764/68. He was associated with Jacob Whistler/Wisler in these deeds involving land in Manor and Conestoga Twps, Lancaster CO, PA. These two neighboring townships border on the west with the Susquehanna River. The Conestoga River/Creek divide Manor and Conestoga Twps, these townships located southwest of Lancaster Boro.

Jacob Rupley names 17 children in his will.

I am specifically looking for ERHART RUBELE(Ruply, etc), of Manor Twp, who married Elizabeth MILLER from the same area. Their marriage was May 1770, recorded in Trinity Lutheran Church, Lancaster Boro.

Any information is greatly appreciated.

Hi. I know a descendant of Joseph Morris and Elizabeth Holverstott who may have information on this for you. I'll try to contact her and see what can be done. I'm a Holverstott but I'm not descended from the Rupleys, although my research has crossed over their line a bit.

http://www.tdh.state.tx.us/bvs/registra/pre1903.htm -- says no birth or death records were known to be kept in TX before 1903.

Catholic Church records are good for christenings and burials, but the Rupleys were Protestants. Evangelical Free Church or in its absence, Evangelical Lutheran Church in Victoria might have something.

Hi there! Sorry about the tardy response but I just was surfing the surnames at RootsWeb and came across your query. I have quite a bit of information on JohannJacob Rubli/Rupley. Barbara Loughman was his first wife and they had eight children. He then married a Maria Schoff and they had nine more but I do not have any record of one of them with the name you gave. Do you have any more information? I have been finding that there are a lot of Jacob's, mostly brothers, nephews, sons, etc. Let me know...my home email is miles@dcn.davis.ca.us.

Rupley / Mcneil / Holverstott Ancestry

samareno — 2002-07-26 20:21:07Z

I am hoping someone can help narrow down my search through the scads of Post Revolutionary Days Rupleys.

I have not been able to find the link between My GGGGGF and mother and the rest of the Rupley / Rubli line. I would like any information regarding either parents of John Wesley Rupley and his brother (?) Jacob Rupley or his wife Jane McNeil. I have pretty much all of the info after the following, I just want to know where/who they come from before California.

John was born approx 1815-16 by his obit. Married 6/29/1844 (Marion Co, OH Records) in Marion, OH to Jane McNeil. Went to then moved by wagon train from or via Marion in 1848-52. His obit said he was a native of PA. He died 5/31/1897 in Smith Flats, near Georgetown and Placerville, El Dorado County, CA.

I have no date information on Jane McNeil. She died approx 1873, in Smith Flats, CA. Was 1/2 Indian from Ohio or Oklahoma.

I do have a family history page stating her sister was married to a Joseph Morris and her name was apparently Elizabeth Holverstott. I confess, I am confused as I think I see where it says that John has a sister named Elizabeth as well. Apparently at least one of the women was married before the husbands that I have.

John and Jane's children were Theodore, born before they left for CA, Then, they had Wesley, Jacob, Columbia Ellen, William, George, and Joseph after the move.

Kathieeb — 2002-06-04 21:52:45Z

Just received the death certificate for my gggrandmother. Her mother's maiden name is listed as Rupley. Am having trouble reading first name looks like KaraMarie ... she was married to Peter Nicholas and was the mother of Annie L. Nicholas (my ggrandmother, wife of David W. Eckert) who is buried in Enola, Cumberland County. Many of the people I am researching are from E. Pennsborough, West Fairview, Hummelstown, and Harrisburg. Perhaps there is a connection. I just started looking into the Rupley's today.

Also surviving are two grandsons; three great-granddaughters; a niece; many nephews; and a host of friends. He was preceded in death by his son, James Allen in 1973; and brother, Kindig Rupley. Funeral services will be held Saturday, August 1, 1998, 11:00 a.m., at Christus Victor Lutheran Church in Ocean Springs. The family requests that memorials be sent to Christus Victor, Ocean Springs. Burial will be in Charlestown, West Virginia, at the plot of his parents, John B. Rupley Sr. and Etheleen Rupley (recently of Gautier).
