Her father was Martin GARHART, I have found him on the 1880 census, Liberty twp. He is 29 yrs old. wife is Nancy, Daughters Clarra M. 7yr. Jeannie C. 5 yrs, Lizzie E. 4 yr. There is an uncle living with them Harrison CONLEY age 67. Wifes maiden name is CONLEY. They were married Mar. 2 1871. I think that Martin's father was also Martin and his mother would have been Eva Elizabeth LEHMAN. I need more information on this couple. They were both from Germany as were Martin's parents. But they were married in Crawford Co. 11-7-1835 The had a daughter named Elizabeth, a male 12 yrs. and another daughter Caroline age 11 . Taken from census 1860. Martin is 53/54.

There were a Samuel HOWARDS listed in the 1830 census for Muskingum, Montgomery, Crawford, Butler and Ross Counties but I do not know if he is the right one for any of these so would appreciate any help . There may be some record of William Henry HOWARD's birth in one of these counties to give a clue which one is the right Samuel. Thank you.
