I have been a member of the Ewing Family Association since 1990 when the bi-annual gathering was held in Cecil County, Maryland. My father was Rev. Dewey Ewing born in Ashland County, Ohio, while my mother, Edith Merrill, was from Westerville, Ohio. They met while students at Otterbein College in Westerville. My father served in the ministry for 48 years and he passed away just a few years after he retired. He was called on to preach at many family funerals and officiate at family weddings. He knew many of his ancestors and had kept a large collection of hand-written records. Since 1950, I have extended our family records. I have thousands of records and documents in my library on both sides of my family. My mother's ancestors include some of the early-settler Ewing's in New Jersey. I have worked many years from military records, birth records, cemetery inventories, and many courts records from several states. Our first Ewings - who came from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in 1814 - were John and Anna Maria (Heichold) Ewing. John and his brother, William, were the sons of James Ewing who died in 1776 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

I retired, after 32 years, as Payroll Manager and Supervisor of a large company and live in Arkansas. From January until April I work for H and R Block.

I am working with the DAR on its Historical Preservation Project and preserving old bible records. My Patriot was from New York. I volunteer at the Jacksonville Museum of Military History. This is a great pleasure; every day is a new adventure in my genealogy research as I continue to find more and more interesting information.
