I am a little confused on his marriages. I do not know if he married Margaret Faust on 6 May 1853 or Mary Heckathorn. slw

Research on William Flower was done by Beverly Flower, who, unfortunately, passed away before I could correspond with her (some time before Aug 2003). Doris Ault has some, but not all, of Beverly's research. slw

Could not write, so used an X on official documents. For example, deed/probate in Hardin County vol 96, p 81

See Probate Court File # 3907 for heirs: Margaret Flowers, John A. Flowers, Roland Flowers, Lillie Rush, & Deby Flowers. Basement of Hardin County, Ohio Courthouse
