The Migration Project is compiled information from
members of the Dobbs, Greene, and Lenoir County ROOTS L Lists.
-
- With reference to migrations from Old Dobbs, our Bogue
family (Quakers) had many members who went to Preble County,
Ohio and thence to Indiana and so on. They were out of the
Contentnea Monthly Meeting of Quakers. I believe this migration
around 1839 and later was due to the Quakers not wanting tobe in
slave-holding states. So my husband's GGGrandfather served in the
confederate forces and his first cousin (from Indiana)served in
the USArmy during the "late unpleasantness".
- There were other families from Wayne Co who went to Ohio at
about the sametime as the Bogues.
