I am searching for info on David Means (Mains) father of John Bower Means. John was born in Ohio and he and his parents and 1 or 2 other siblings moved to MO and settled there.
Do you have a time frame? I have family with the last name of Means here in Missouri. My great-aunt Katie married an Otho Delos Means b. 1912.I don't have any information beyond Otho, but I have information on decendents from he and Auntie Katie.
Hi I hope this is the same family. My David Means was born about 1806 in PA and moved his family to Ohio. Moved to MO between 1850 and 1860, died in Madison County, 13 Mar 1886. His son John Bower Means is my great grandfather, born 1844, Tuscarawas, Ohio. David's wife was Margaret Bowers, also died in MO>
