Descendants of David Davis Ebi (December 2008)

Generation No. 2


2. JOHN3 EBI(4) (DAVID DAVIS2 EBI(3), DAVID1 EBY(2)) was born Abt. 1781 in Pennsylvania or Maryland3, and died 23 Mar 1843 in Stark County, Ohio3. He married (1) MARY MAGDALENA DAGUE Abt. 1806, daughter of MICHAEL DAGUE and MARGARET SWINEHART. She was born Abt. 1787 in Pennsylvania, and died Abt. 1824 in Stark Co., Ohio. He married (2) MARY HORRIGAN 13 Jan 1825. She was born Abt. 1800 in Pennsylvania, and died Aft. 1850.

Notes for JOHN EBI(4):
John Eby(4), the eldest son of David Davis Eby(3), settled near Canton, Ohio, in 1807, several years ahead of his father. He was one of the pioneer school masters of that section. He was married a second time and had a family of seventeen children. Of the other members of John Eby(4)'s family there is but little known. They are scattered throughout the Western and Southern States. "The History of the Eby Family" - Ezra E. Eby - 1889 pg.. 53-4

Michael J. Eby has him born in Virginia.
Carole Schetter has him dying in Mottville, Michigan

I have found out that John Ebi DID NOT DIE IN MOTTVILLE nor was he buried there. I asked the sexton AND the county person who is in charge of all of the cemeteries and she sent me to James Culp, one of the "kids" that I went to High School with! I called him and left a message then called him back about a week later and his wife answered the phone. She told me that he had searched the Thompson Cemetery records AND the Mottville Township Cemetery records and could not find anything even close to John. Therefore, I do think that he died in Ohio and was buried there. David M. Eby


Notes for MARY MAGDALENA DAGUE:
There is some question that her name may have been Magdalena Dague, sister of Margaret Dague married to John's brother Henry. Or perhaps Magdalena Tate and Magdalena Dague are two different women.

The name has been spelled TATE before--also TAGUE, DAGE, TAGE,
and the immigrant spelling was DEEG. The T's and D's in German can
cause some real problems. - Carole Schetter
