One of the census records on Grace Austin Hern said Grace was born in
Dev.,England. Need to check the Devonshire records to see if I can locate
this Austin family there in the parish records. This could help prove or
disprove the Hern Grace Austin connection.
There is a Thomas Austin in the 1840 federal census in Cuyahoga Co.,Ohio
Said 2 males between 5-10 yrs of age 1 male between 40-50 years of age.
Living in Orange Twp.
There is a Thomas Austin in the 1830 federal census in Cuyahoga Co.,Ohio
Said one male between 20-30 yrs of age One male between 40-50 yrs of age
One female under 5 One male under five One female between 15 - 20 yrs old
Living in Newburgh
It showed two girls and I doubt if the second female would be the wife but
it is possible.
I searched some cemetaries in Cuyahoga Co.Ohio but didn't find any Thomas.

Need research on other marriages
Ed Rogers said Eliza Viola Austin (his grandmother) had a half brother Charles
and a half sister Grace Hern or Ern. There is a William Hern in Chagrin Falls,
page 40 where Eliza Viola said she was born. He has a wife Grace who could be
the daughter of the first marriage of Thomas Austin. This would make Charles a
cousin and Grace the half sister.
There is also a William Martin in the 1870 federal census Chagrin Falls page 14
with a wife Jane 44 and three children. (Check 1880 fed census for both a
William Martin with a wife Jane or a wife Mary Ann)
Unable to locate Mary Ann in 1870 in Chagrin Falls, Cuyahoga,Ohio with
either a Hern or a Wilson. (Mary Ann marries William Martin in 1873)
1860 federal census p.4
family # 152 there is a William and Grace Hern with a daughter Mary Ann Hern
age 15, a son charles Henry Hern age 11. There is also a Charles Wilson age 30
living there with them. Census also said they were both born in Devon,Engl.
There is a marriage for a Mary Ann Hern and a Charles Wilson
in 1861 in Cuyahoga Co.,Ohio. I think this is a marriage for these two and not
our Mary Ann. Thomas was still alive in 1863 when they sold their property in
Cuyahoga Co.,Ohio. From my study of the federal census' I think the Grace Hern
Ed Rogers said was a half sister was the daughter of Thomas Austin and his
first wife. It appears that Charles Hern was the son of Grace. Note Chas. is a
witness on the marriage license of Mariette Austin and Robert Quick.
Ed Rogers said Charles Hern died in Cheybogan, Mi in 1925 but there is no
record of his death there. If we can find a death record on Charles we might
be able to prove or disprove the relationship of Grace to Thomas Austin.
Need to check the property records of Iowa Co.,Wisc. or write to Iowa Co.
Wisc.
to see if Thomas Austin or Mary Ann is listed as buying a house in Mineral Point around 1880 - 1890
Franklin Austin's obit said he hd been in Mineral Point about 40 years and died in 1921.

Respected Woman Called
Mrs Marietta Roether passed from this life Dec 5th, 1917 and her remains
were laid to rest in Graceland last Friday afternoon, after services at the
home of her daughter, conducted by Rev. W.G.C. Bohd.
She was born in Chagrin Falls, Cuyhoga Co., Ohio Dec. 16, 1844 being
therefore nearly 73 years of age at the time of her death.
She was united in marriage to Robert Quick and came to Mineral Point from
Ohio Jan. 11, 1871 and afterward resided for many years on their farm a few
miles from this city.
Of this union there were three surviving children, Henry and Thomas, and a
daughter, Mrs Gus Torgeson. Three brothers and two sisters also remain. viz:
Edward and Frank Austin of Mineral Point, Charles of Atlanta, Mich., Mrs Sarah
Osborne, Kewadin, Mich and Mrs S.O. Rogers of Stickney, S. Dak.
After the death of her husband Mrs Quick remained a widow for several years,
when she was married twenty four years ago last October to Henry Roether who
died in the year 1907. Since that time she has lived with her children
spending the last four years with her daughter, Mrs Torgeson in this city.
This reference to a sister Mrs. S.O. Rogers must be Eliza Viola or Mrs T.V.
Rogers. Sarah and Eliza would have both been alive when Mariette died.

At a late hour of last Thursday afternoon, Feb. 10th, the life of Franklin C. Austin reached its grand finale, the result of his own deliberate act.
Franklin c. Austin was born in Chargin Falls, Ohio, the 3rd of May 1856 . He came to Mineral Point about forty years ago and this city has known him all those years. He never married, but made his home with relatives. In early life he became afflicted with theumatism and this handicapped his activity all throught life, yet he showed a willingness to work at what he could do, and for years was a driver for the Brown Livery. He was of a conservative nature.
Relatives surviving are: two brothers and two sisters - Edward Austin of Kewadin, Michigan-Charles Austin of Atlanta, Michigan, Mrs T.V. Rogers of Stickney, S. Dakota, and Mrs Sarah Osbourne of Kewadin, Michigan.
The funeral took place from the home of Gus Torgeson on Saturday afternoon, Rev. A.H. Schoenfeld officiating. Interment in Graceland Cemetery.
