Jerry died: 1873 (11-11-1873) in Cleveland Ohio. He made his will out July 16th, 1873.It had George, Mary & Lousia in it, so the other two daughters must have been dead already.

Children

* ( JC1) Margaret ( Cross ) Greenhalgh-( 1822-?)

* ( JC2) Emily ( CROSS ) Kaneen-(25 Aug 1824-?)

* ( JC3) Lousia ( Cross) Barkwell---( 26 Jan 1828-?) Marriage #1 to George Barkwill & marriage #2 to Isaac Asplin.
See Photo in her old age. Lousia in chair in 1915

* ( JC 4) George Cross--(1832-?)  No IGI record of birth in Eng or US ?

* ( JC5) Mary Ann ( Cross ) Black ( 4 Mar1833-?) ---Married John Batty FOSTER &later Jeremiah BLACK

(JC?) Elain  Cross ( b. 1839 ?)

* (JC6) Lucy Cross -(1845-?) in OH

* (JC7) Albert Cross-(b. 1848-? ) in OH

* ( JC8) Thomas Cross-(after 1850 ?--died in Cleveland in Sept 1858 ) No real data yet, only probate records.

(1) Male 30-40- likely Jerry? Therefore born 1800-1810! (Fits 1805 date on 1840 census)

(2) Male 10-15- poss. Jerry Jr.? " " 1825-1830! Not George ! Not Thomas ?

(3) Male 5-10- Likely George? 1830-1835

(4) Female 0-5 , 1835-1840 Likely Mary Ann !

(5) Female 5-10 (b.1830-1835)- Could this be the to-be Gramma Palmer. If so, and the Louisa over to US at 5, would leave Gramma Palmer able to have a sister over at age 1, on boat, and still make this castegory! Gramma Palmer is: Mary C. Cross who married John N. Palmer 8 Sept. 1868 in DeWitt, Ill. from LDS IGI records.

(6) Female 10-15 (1825-1830)- likely Louisa as she would have been 12. Likely of my line!

(7) Female 30-40 (b.1800-1810)- Likely Jerry's wife?

(8) ???

• 1850 FEDERAL CENSUS INDEX CUYAHOGA COUNTY, OHIO
• CROSS, J. ; East Cleveland Page 298---Assume this was a Jerry Jr. as Jerry Sr. was already dead.

J Cross, age 48, male, grocer, value of property owned: $2000, place of birth England
  Ann, age 48, female, place of birth England
  George, 18, male, place of birth England
  Mary A., age 15, place of birth England

  Albert, 2, male, place of birth Ohio

There is a "Jeremiah Cross" listed on page 462, 10th Ward in the 1870 census for Cuyahoga County.  I only own the rolls for Wards 4-7, so I can't look him up for you.
I own wards 4-12 of the 1880 census, but there was no Jeremiah listed in the index.

* Poss birth records of children under 7 at 1840 period? See female 0-5 years.

Q- See Jeremiah Cross married to Martha Dyson, 1847 in Hocking, Ohio! Could this be Jerry Jr.? Not Sr. unless remarried. Sr. had young children in 1840!

* Father & Mother were: Francis Barkwill / Balkwill & Catherine Lemon.

o His wife was Louisa Elizabeth (Cross) Barkwill who will later married Mr. Asplin and was referred to Gramma Asplin by my dads family. o US
census of 1850 lists George as being 26 (This would make his birth date 1824?)

* George had 2 sisters and a brother: (1) Elizabeth Jane (b.12/4/1825 m. 10/26/1846 & became Mrs. John Palmer)

(2) Mary Jane (b. ? m.2/15/1888 d. 8/16/1907& also married John Palmer after her sister died); & son . Had a son ???????????? Son or

3) George Franklin Barkwill, b.12/16/1857 & d.1/13/1919. He was married to Emma L. Jones. His son and wife had children: Ruth, Eva, Florance
Frank. This son Franklin was born in Ohio and moved to Sewickley, Pa. Frank & wife Zella had daughter who is/was Mrs. David Clark of Rochester,
Mich & Detroit. She likely had two children as it was reported there were two grandchildren. May run this line and report under new sheet for George
Franklin. G.F. Barkwill was listed as clerk auditors office, C&PRR, bds. 130 Croton.; Cleveland. This must have been the RR job promised to
George's son.

* Eva listed here in 1900 was age 21, born Nov. 1878 and living at 91 Belle Ave.! _

* Josephs notes indicate his son was Ernest ??

o Being in Census of 1850 indicates George was here in US at least 10 years before becoming a US citizen

o Listed in 1861-62 as Barkwill

o Nov. 5, 1860 became a citizen of USA from England. We have state of Ohio, Cuyahoga County document still in family. Document has both
Barkwill & Barkwell on it? o Home was 51 scoville (4th Ward ) in Cleveland. o Buried in Old Woodland Cemetary which is proported to be in a very
bad neighborhood now.

o George had daugthter Ella Louisa (Barkwill) Bolt born 1862. Was this before his death or after. Existing info says Ella was born in Dec.1862 and he
died in Oct. ! The death notice says two children at home also??? Only know of two children?? Was an extra one in the hopper? oo See attached
News paper articles here. To copy on reader and input! o Where in England did he come from? Family info says he was a blacksmith by trade in
England. o When and how did he come to the US?

Here's the text, from The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Monday, October 13, 1862: Fatal Accident in the Pittsburgh Railroad Yard

George Barkwill, a car repairer, in the employ of the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad Company was almost instantly killed about nine o'clock this
morning, in the yard of the latter company, under the following circumstances: Mr. Barkwill was at work between a couple of cars near the Pittsburgh
Freight Depot, repairing the brake. While engaged in this task, a locomotive suddenly backed up against the car upon which he was at work, and
pushed the train to which it was attached, (consisting of three cars) suddenly together, catching Mr. B.'s neck between the "bumpers" of the car upon
which he was engaged, and the one at his back. The unfortunate man had sufficient strength left, after being struck, to crawl off from the track, when he
sank upon the ground and almost instantly expired.

This sad accident is owing entirely to the deceased's carelessness, in commencing to work between the cars, before he had displayed a red flag from
the end of the train - a rule which is universally observed among car repairers in the Pittsburgh yard.

Mr. Barkwill was about forty years of age, and had been in the employ of the Pittsburgh Company about two months and a half. He resided at corner
of Scoville and Perry street, and leaves a wife and two children. * Census data seen: 1850, see 1860, and poss. 1840?

* Look for English info on Work in England?

Frank Hall m. Elizabeth Asplin 10/10/1888 and they had four children,
Arthur, Robert, Russell, and Stella.

George Hall m. Anna Asplin (not Elizabeth Asplin) 2/9/1893 and had six
children, Warren, Gordon, Harold, Alfred, Ethel and Evelyn.

There is a great resource for information on the history of Olmsted Falls,
Ohio that has extensive information on all of the families that lived there
since the founding of the township.  I have the book at home and will email
you the name of it tomorrow.

My great grandfather was Francis Peter Hickey who married Mabel Mary
Millicent Hall sister of Frank and George.

The book I told you about is Historical Story Olmsted Township: Villages of
Olmsted Falls, North Olmsted, West View by Walter F. Holzworth, written in
1966.  There are no specific Asplin pages, but they are mentioned in
conjunction with the Hall family, specifically on page 51.

"Elizabeth Hall, a daughter of Joel and Millicent, was born October 4, 1863
and married Jacob Bauer December 25, 1888.  After Bauer's death she married
Charles Asplin.  They had no children."

"George Hall, son of Joel and Millicent, was born April 18, 1871 and married
Anna Asplin February 9,1893.  They had 6 children:  Warren, Gordon, Harold,
Alfred, Mrs. Ethel Warner, and Mrs. Evelyn Faber.  He was identified as
"Greenhouse George".  Along with his sons, Warren, Gordon, and Harold, he
engaged ina greenhouse business.  George Hall died while visiting in
Jeromesville, Ohio September 12, 1950 at the age of 79.  Mrs. George Hall
died May 22, 1928."

on page 50

"Donald Hall, a son of John and Minnie Robb Hall, married Flora Asplin.  He
was known as "Kink Hall" a truck gardener at the big bend on Kennedy Ridge.
His children were Dorothy and Donald."

The slaughter house was actually owned by Arthur Hall and burned down in
1952.

Sorry for the delay in returning this information to you.

Oops, also forgot to include this paragraph on page 51

"Frank Hall, son of Joel and Millicent, was born October 2, 1864 and married
Elizabeth Asplin October 10, 1888.  They had 4 children:  Arthur, who
married Martha Surman, Robert married Berth Cook, Russell married Beatrice
Terrell, and Stella married Dean Webster.  Frank Hall's farm was on Cook
Road where he farmed and raised cattle, and started a slaughter house.  His
son, Arthur, who married Martha Surman, was identified as Art Hall, the
Butcher.  He built the business of raising and feeding of steers, sheep,
hogs, and ths laughter house into a highly successful wholesale meat
processing and distributing business.  His sons, Florian and Irving, carried
on the business after his death.  Arthur Hall had one daughter, Josephine
who married Mr. Madak."

So as you can see, the Hall's and Asplin's had a lot of fun at family
reunions, considering that 3/4 of the family was married to each other.
