  - ** See marriage notes for list of children ** ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- found at http://genforum.genealogy.com/melvin/messages/57.html Hi, All, Today I recieved the marriage papers for Aaron MELVIN and Sarah TAYLOR, dated 26 Aug, 1812. Aaron was born about 1796. They lived in the state of Delaware until about 1820, when they moved to Fayette County, OH. My 3rd grt grndfather, Eli MELVIN, 'bought' land in IL in 1840, which was paid for by Aaron, according to the deed. Does anyone have more information on Aaron: names of his children, his parents, etc? Please contact me if you are working on this line? Maybe we can compare notes.
