Attached is a copy of a tintype from my family album.  The tintype is of Sarah 
A. Harwood and it was sent to my Great-great grandmother Mary Ward Teter 
Harwood by one of Sarah's brothers (John Harwood) with the notation "to Molly 
Harwood from John Harwood." 
 
Mary was Sarah's step grandmother.  Sarah's father, Nathan Thomas Harwood, was 
the son of Benjamin and Anne Harris Harwood who were early pioneers in Ross 
County, Ohio.  Anne died and Benjamin married, in 1825, Mary Ward Teter, who 
was a widow of Mathias Teter. Mary had four children by her first husband and 
Benjamin and Mary had seven children.  Nathan Thomas and Mary Tower Harwood 
went West between 1845 and 1849 and settled in Washington Twp., Van Buren 
County Iowa.   Later a half brother Benjamin Franklin Harwood also moved from 
Scioto County first to Illinois and then to Sac County, Iowa.
 
I have been looking for descendants of Benjamin Harwood in hopes that one may 
have a clue to his parents.  

I hope this is of interest to you.

This looks like  Mary Oletha Payne, sister of Charles Elfrey Payne.  This copy 
does not have the date of her birth or death.   Also the volunteer who entered 
the information has Beuchler and Beauchler.  The second spelling is probably 
incorrect since Beuchler is entered more than once in the body.  I note that 
you have Bughler in your entry. The second obituary is of Lewis C. Payne's 
second wife, Hannah Pender.   Hope that this is info new to you.
