In early Ohio around 1810 when my John TIMMONS family was in southern Ohio, a Methodist Minister the Reverend Stephen TIMMONS was actively preaching in the area. Quite likely related, the better documented Stephen TIMMONS family has yet to connect with my John TIMMONS.
- My great-grandfather Thomas Jefferson FOLLIS' funeral was at a Methodist Church. His mother Catherine EIKENBERRY was Church of the Brethren so I assume his wife Matilda TIMMONS was Methodist.
- The George ESSIG family in Whitley County, Indiana is buried in the Oak Grove Methodist Cemetery. His parents are buried in a Lutheran Cemetery his brother John is in a Church of the Brethren Cemetery.

Genealogy research is never complete, important details might be missing, and often contains errors, so let me know if your research contradicts mine. My Indiana and Ohio family research comes from conversations with relatives, scrapbooks, library research, online records, visits to courthouses, final resting places on family farms and cemeteries. Families in other states rely mostly on the research of others. Links to other web sites often change then won't work, so if you find broken links, have additional information on any families, corrections, photos, or anything to add to the history of our families, please leave a Comment in my Guest book, join my Follis Families on Facebook page for updates and new discoveries, or send an Email. The Wayback Machine archives most old web pages so copy and paste the broken URL address to find the missing 404 pages that disappeared.
