My apologies to those who have left comments over the last few months; I wasn't getting notifications that comments were awaiting approval. I also haven't worked on family tree stuff recently, and don't have a lot to offer in addition to the photos here that isn't already available on the internet. All the same, I hope you enjoy the photos!
Thanks for visiting.

According to the Book Abraham and Mary Pitman Clevenger by Sarah Clevenger - Abraham and Lydia Mellot Clevenger had a daughter named Eva/Eve who married David Mumma. Eve was born in 1845 and died in 1898. David was the son of Jacob and Sarah Mumma. Hope this is correct.

I am a great-great grandson of Lydia Mellott and Abraham Clevenger. I know that they had 13 children. I am descended from Jacob Clevenger and Jane (Jennie) Morton Clevenger. They had 4 children, 2 of whom died in infancy. I am descended from their daughter Florida Clevenger (Nettleton). I am in possession of Jacob Clevenger's civil war discharge certificate and I also have his (and Jennie's)family bible. According to my mother, Lydia Mellott Clevenger died shortly after the 13th child was born and that her grandmother (Jennie Morton Clevenger) raised a number of the younger children. Jacob Clevenger was a general contractor who moved about the country from project to project. He later moved to Washington D.C. where he died in 1915, about one year after my grandparents were married.
