Henry F. Warner's obituary appeared in The Times Recorder (Zanesville, OH) newspaper on July 3, 1953. Typographical errors and lack of punctuation makes it difficult to determine the correct names of Henry's sons. SUCCUMBS TO HEART ATTACK CALDWELL, O. -- Henry F. Warner, 72, prominent retired

At the time of the 1850 census, 31 year old farmer Joseph "Hammond" lived in Enoch Twp., Monroe County, Ohio with his 30 year old wife Barbary and their four children: Ann M. (7), Mary A. (6), Sebastian (4), and Morris (2). None of the children attended school. Joseph's farm was valued at $800. The adjacent farms in the census belonged to John Yager and Jacob Schott (Joseph Hohman's brother-in-law).
In 1860, 38 year old farmer Joseph Hohman lived in Enoch Twp., Noble Co., Ohio with his 38 year old wife Barbara. Both were born in Hesse. Living with them were their children Margaret (18), Mary A. (17), Sebastian (14), Morris (13), Louisa (10), Barbara (8) and Frances (4). The children were all born in Ohio, and all except the oldest two attended school. Neighboring farms in the census were those of Joseph Hohman's brother-in-law Nicholas (Michael) Blake and Joseph's brother Maurice Hohman.
At the time of the 1870 census, Joseph Hohman (52) was still living in Enoch Twp. with his wife Mary B. (51) and children Morris (22), Louisa (19), Barbara (17), Frances (13) and Magnus C. (10). Only Magnus attended school. All the children were born in Ohio. Adjacent households in the census were those the widow Mary Schaub Lori (Joseph Hohman's future wife), and (Joseph) William Johanning.

In 1870, Mary Lori (31) lived on a farm in Enoch Twp., Noble County, Ohio with children John J. (13), Henry John (12), George (10), and Joseph (8). The three oldest boys attended school. Mary, who was born in Virginia, could not read or write. Also living in the house was Mary's mother, Mary Schoup (69). Adjacent farms in the census were those of Joseph Hohman and Michael ("John") Blake. Joseph Hohman's wife died in 1873, and Mary Schaub Lori married him four years later.
Records conflict on place of birth:
In the 1860, 1870 and 1880 census, Mary's birthplace is listed as (West) Virginia. According to the 1900 census, Mary Schaub Hohman was born in May 1840 in Germany. She came to America in 1848, when she was about eight years old. This conflicts with Dale Schott's book, which states that Mary's parents arrived in America in July 1838. "St. Mary's -- 150 Years -- Fulda, OH", states that she was born in 1838. The 1910 census entry for Maria's son, John Lorey states that his mother was born at sea, as do the 1900, 1920 and 1930 census entries for her son Joseph Lorey.
The 1900 census also states that Mary had no children. (There is a 0 in the column for "Mother of how many children?") Mary spoke English, but could not read or write.
