CALENDINE, DAVIS, HUTCHINS
Rhoda DAVIS b. abt. 1836 OH, father Joshua DAVIS, b. abt. 1801 ME, enumerated
in the 1850 and 1860 Windsor Twp., Morgan Co., OH census' together. In
the 1870 Windsor Twp., Morgan Co., OH Census the Davis household consists
of Joshua, Jane, Rhoda, William and Arzula (b. abt. 1867 and daughter
of Rhoda) and three CALENDINE children of Jane: John, James and Mary.
In the 1880 census Arzula is enumerated as a CALENDINE in the Bartlett
HUTCHINS (b. 1802 ME) household, still in Windsor Twp., Morgan Co., OH.
Later Rhoda DAVIS married a HALL. Bartlett HUTCHINS first wife also happens
to be named Rhoda DAVIS and she is probably the sister of the above Joshua
DAVIS. Bartlett HUTCHINS daughter, Rhoda (b. 1839 Olive Twp., Morgan Co.,
OH), married one of the CALENDINE children, James, in 1871 in Morgan Co.,
OH. I am trying to find out who the father of Arzula is. I would appreciate
any information to help me solve this mystery and exchanging information
on these families.

I acquired a marriage certificate for my stamp collection, I thought if a
Morgan County researchers happen to be looking for proof of their ancestors
marriage I could send them a copy of it. The documentary stamp was initialed
and dated by the minister ( these revenue stamps were required on photos,
newspapers and lots of other paper items by the Federal Gov't to help pay
off debt from Civil War, etc ) The certificate reads: " I do hereby certify
that on the 24th day of dec. A.D. 1867 Mr. Wm.H.H.(?) Smith and Miss Emma
Bars (or Barrs ) were legally joined in marriage by me. (signed) Eld(er) E.W.
