The oldest known Ancestor was JOHN M. ARMSTRONG, b. 14 Apr 1790 in VA (Fairfax County?). He married Elizabeth PARRETT ON 25 Mar, 1817 in Fayette Co, OH. She was born 11 Jan 1799 in Tom's Brook, Shenandoah Co, VA (some researchers have this date as Nov 11, 1798).

They raised their family of 9 children in Fayette Co, Ohio. Elizabeth died 10 Aug 1843 and John died 09 Feb 1865, both in Fayette Co.

Refer to the Generation report of John M. ARMSTRONG on this page (right)for additional information on his descendants.

Pictures are posted below.

NOTE: Picture descriptions PRECEDE each Photo.

Mahala was the eldest child of John & Elizabeth PARRETT ARMSTRONG.  She was born 25 Aug 1819, married Milan Lewis SMITH on 13 Mar 1838 in Fayette Co, Ohio. She died 17 July 1885. They had 7 children. See the Smith Pages for addition info on their family.

NOTE: The dates for Mahala above came from the family bible record recorded in Mahala's handwriting. They differ from Probate records obtained in Fayette Co, OH, however, I believe the bible dates to be the correct dates. Mahala would certainly have known her own birthdate and marriage date.

Mahala's siblings - brother, Abel Armstrong b. 11 Mar 1830 and sister, Rebecca Armstrong b. 27 Jun 1832. Abel married Emily Creamer. Rebecca married (1) Jacob Wright, (2) Jesse B. Thompson.

Hayes Cemetery on Prairie Pike 3 miles from Washington Court House, Fayette Co., Ohio. The tombstone of John Armstrong and two children, were found here. This photo sent to me by another Armstrong researcher, descendant of George Armstong, Mahala's brother. She said of this and the following tombstone photos:

"These pictures were taken by Laura Armstrong and Mary Daniels. They said that the cemetery was now located in the middle of a hog pen. It looks to me like a field area where hogs are turned loose. Also it appeared that someone had removed all of the markers and put them in a central location and built a fence around them to keep the hogs out. Laura had to get in there and turn stones over until she found John Armstrong's. She wasn't going to leave there until she found it. And she did..."
