ANDREW S. STRAUB (1797-1858)

I'm looking for information on my Marion County kin. My GG-grandfather, Andrew S. STRAUB, was born in 1797 in Pennsylvania and first appears in Ohio in 1822 when he purchases land patents in Marlborough Twp., Delaware Co. (now Waldo Twp., Marion Co.). In 1845, Andrew STRAUB was elected Trustee when the Village of Waldo was incorporated. From the 1820s through at least the 1930 census, at least some of Andrew's descendants continued to live in Waldo, OH. My primary questions -- my brick walls! -- are the identity of his parents and those of his wife, Nancy CUPP (b. May 1815, OH).
