• Notes

  "STRIEBY Genealogy and History 1726-1967" by Byard B. Strieby, B. Beatrice Strieby, and Irene M. Strieby (MacDonald Letter Services County, Des Moines, Iowa, 1967) John Strieby--"An improved county road, which leads from the little village of Bolivar, OH, in Lawrence Twp., Tuscarawas County, to the slightly larger village of Strasburg, in the neighboring twp. of Franklin, takes one over the beautiful hill country near Stark County line. Crossing this road, about a mile south of Bolivar, is the "Old Strasburg Rd.", a winding gravel trail thru scenic territory, forking to the NW. On the left hand side of the road, about a mile from the junction is an abandoned cemetary almost hidden from view. It is here that the compiler found the graves of John Strieby and wife in a plot with corner posts, indicating it was once enclosed by an iron chain fence. The large tombstones had been laid flush with the ground rather than in upright position and were scarcely visible thru the overgrowth of myrtle...This cemetery is probably located near the old home of John and his wife in Lawrence Twp." "John Strieby also owned land in Salem Tract farther south in Tuscarawas County Several deeds in County records give evidence of his various transactions as also on his estate administration documents and Chancery records." "That the family clung to its German background is evidence by books in that language listed in the sale of property (Probate Bk. 4:396ff) as well as their membership in the Reformed Church. About 1835, Conrad Zutavern and wife, Anna Maria, together with John Strieby and wife Anna Maria, sighed a deed for parts of Lots 16 and 17, Sec.2, Twp. 10, for a "German Presbyterian and Lutheran Church to be known as Paul's Chruch" (Deed Bk. 10:212). John was trustee of this church said to be torn down about 1925. According to Beer' p. 573, Strieby, Fernsells, and others were members of a Lutheran Society formed in 1822. "HISTORY OF KOSCIUSKO COUNTY" "William (brother of Margaret Strieby/Stocker) was born in PA March 23, 1811, a son of John and Maria (Richel) Strieby, also natives of Pa. In the same year that William was born his parents moves to Tuscarawas County OH...." "STREVEY FAMILY HISTORY" by Maxine Strevey Scott, p. 6. " After the death of his father, John Strieby chose John Mosher of Whitehall Twp. for his guardian."
