Elisha Lee Daniels (March 14, 1819-May 1, 1866) and Catherine Morana Hardy (May 5, 1822-September 5, 1910) were originally from New York State and migrated to Ohio in the 1840's, first living near Amherst, Lorain County, and then moving to Berlin Twp, Erie County, after 1850. He was a schoolteacher and was supposedly descended from Richard Henry Lee, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, although the descent is not clear. This couple had 3 sons and 1 daughter - John, Chester, Martin and Susan. Any information on their ancestors would be appreciated.

Susan's will was dated April 21, 1897 and probated September 15, 1908. She was living in Berlin Heights at her death. (Erie County Courthouse Case # 2222)
It is written on a standard form. She directs "that a headstone shall be erected to mark my last resting place." Susan's estate is given "to Adell Anna Cook great granddaughter of my late husband James Driver without restriction, excepting that neither she nor the executor shall dispose of any of the real estate or any part therof consigned by this instrument during the period of two years from the date of my decease." Charles Cook of Berlin Heights was nominated executor.

From Vermillion Views
This is Main Street looking east from the corner of Route 61. More than a few of these buildings are still standing. Many are plainly marked with their construction dates (1880's/90's). Having seen some additional photographs from the Berlin Heights historical group one may rest assured that it was not always a "sleepy" hamlet. It was, like Birmingham, a very busy and prosperous farming community.
The photo seen below was electronically transferred to me from my good friend Dennis LaMont (Birmingham native and electric/interurban train historian) after he saw the pic of the vic house on the hill in last weeks "Views".
Of wider interest as matters pertain to Berlin Heights, Ohio is the curious fact that it was during the 19th century once the home of a Free Love Society.
