READERS RESPOND
Dear Sir: The Fall 1996 issue of "Lybarger Linkages" seemed to me to be the best one yet. When I read about the obituary research in Knox County, OH I could only admire all the searchers for doing what must have been dusty drudgery at times. We Lybargers owe them a deep debt of gratitude because what they did will have a ripple effect. The article on anonymous burials, appalled me. What Europe needs is, a true religious, revival. Having two huge wars, fought back and forth across their lands must have made many people, spiritually depleted. Milton and Irene's elopement story is wonderful, and it is so nice to know that she was the spark that led to the organization of the; Lybarger Memorial Association.
Virginia L. Patterson, New Philadelphia, OH
Dear Sir: I read with interest in the Spring, 1996 edition of "Linkages" about a Jeff Lybarger, who has received a calling for a deaf ministry in Indianapolis My daughter ; is a rubella baby of the early 60's, and was born hearing impaired. We have had a church or two m this area with deaf ministries, but they were never strong, and no longer offer this service. While in school in St. Augustine, Fl., she attended a local church with a deaf ministry, and she misses the association. Unfortunately, our particular community does not have a large deaf population that would support a deaf ministry. I pray that Jeff's work will flourish.
Judy Wheatley, Merrit Island, FL
IDEAS FOR NEWSLETTER ARTICLES
Michi and John L. Lybarger of Mansfield, Ohio asked the editor where he got all his ideas for newsletter articles. The editor thought other readers might have the same question. Most important, of course, are the LMA annual meetings and family reunions at Madley, Pa. and elsewhere. The genealogical research and the book that will soon be coming out will form a rich source for articles.
Some of the best material comes from you, the reader, whether they be news clippings, family history stories, etc. That is why the editor is always appealing for material from relations. Please continue to send in reports and newspaper clippings about weddings, obituaries, and human interest stories featuring Lybarger relations. If you would like to remember a relation who has a 100th birth anniversary in 1997 (or 1998, etc.) please let the editor know and provide some biographical information to go along with his or her centennial birthday. It will be mentioned in the newsletter along with the name of the person sending in the information.
Other ideas come from what the editor reads. He is constantly on the lookout for possibilities from the media from books, from chance conversions, etc. He has a special interest in histories that help portray what our Lybarger ancestors went through in coming to America and settling in Pennsylvania., Ohio, and states further west. A recently published book, The Ohio Frontier Crucible of the Old Northwest will likely for the basis of some future articles once the editor gets the book read.
A THOUGHT TO REMEMBER
Like it or not, we all must belong somewhere, or a person's not a person. Nobody makes it alone.
John Updike, In the Beauty of the Lilies
HOW TO SPELL "LYBARGER"
Have you ever stopped to consider the different ways your Lybarger name is misspelled? Probably more times than you care to admit. This was certainly a problem when our immigrant ancestor arrived in Philadelphia in 1739, but then he was a German and the clerk who made the list of passengers for the authorities was English speaking. There were no accepted practices for spelling German names.
In the almost 260 years since that time the spellings of Lyberger and Lybyer have been accepted as derived from the same ancestors as is Lybarger - the most common spelling today. But you can no doubt provide many examples of the way your surname has been misspelled.
Believe it or not, Leonard F. Lybarger of Shaker Heights, OH, has a collection of the many ways his name has appeared on envelopes and address labels be they hand written or typed. So far he has accumulated over 30 different spellings. The most outlandish were those that left off the first two letters or used a different prefix such as Clybarger, Cybarger, or Wybarger. But even some of those starting with an L were pretty wild. Such as those that did not end with an R. Try these on for size: Lybarge, Lybargerrn, Lybangen, Laybargu, or Lybardey. Then there are those which used a different vowel other than Y after the L, such as, Lainberger Larbarger, Laybarger, Leiberger, Leighberger, Leiberger, Libarger, Lieberger, Loybarger, or Lubarger.
Are you having fun yet? If you haven't started laughing maybe these will tickle your funny bone: Lydbrager, Lybanoer, Lybanger, Lyberher, Lyayer, Lybaryer, Lybauger, Lybanger, Lyborger, or Lybaryar (actual spelling used in the Greater Cleveland telephone directory). These spellings seem to have other connections: Lydbrager (Hey, you tellin' me I ain't got no braggin' rights?), Lyburger (Hey Mac, where's the beef?), Lybarfer (is there a doctor in the house?), or Lybarber (do you want a shave with your haircut?). Then there is the case of a psychic astrologer who sent promotional material to a 'Lee Barger", this editor
If we think we have problems with the Americanized spelling of our German name think of the trouble folks must have who have Polish. Slavic, French, Scandinavian, Italian, or Asian names? Maybe the price of having an uncommon name is that it will be misspelled. One way to avoid misspellings is, to automatically spell "Lybarger" to a clerk or order taker without bothering to pronounce it. If you have examples of misspellings of your Lybarger or Lyberger or Lybyer name that you would like to add to the collection, send them to Len Lybarger, 13800 Fairhill Road, #207, Shaker Hts., OH 44120.
POETRY PROJECT PROGRESSES
Thanks to those who have sent in poetry which is to be compiled in a book. You contributions have been carefully filed away. Further progress has had to wait until after the new genealogical history has been published for distribution. However the selections keep dribbling in. The poetry file folder is getting thicker and thicker. So keep sending your selections to the LMA office, P.O. Box 611, Delaware. Ohio 43015
SECOND COUSIN ONCE REMOVED
The following conversation may have been heard on the way home from a family reunion: Son or daughter: "Mom? Uncle Jake said that I am Sandy's second cousin once removed. Isn't she just my cousin?"
Mom: `'Yes. she is just your cousin. But Uncle Jake was explaining exactly how you are related to Sandy. There are different levels of cousin relations. For example, Uncle Jake's son, Kyle, is your first cousin because his father and I are brother and sister. If Kyle has a son and you have a son they are 2nd cousins to each other. OK? Now let's say that Kyle's son gets married and has a daughter (his granddaughter) but your son doesn't have any children. His granddaughter would be a second cousin once removed to your son. But if your son has a daughter than she would be a third cousin to Kyle's granddaughter. The term "removed" is used to describe a relationship to a relative where there is a skip of a generation."
Daughter: 'Uncle Jake said that Kyle and I are kissing cousins. What does that mean?"
Mother: " That just means that you have a personal I relationship to a relative. But don't plan on kissing him at school or else you could be hauled into the principal's office for sexual harassment."
DISEASE AND FAMILY HEREDITY
A growing area of interest to medical science is the role that birth order and hereditary factors play in disease. For example this writer's paternal grandfather died of a heart attack. His father did also. Does that mean he will die of a heart attack too? Not necessarily, but the possibility is there.
MODERN MATURITY, the AARP magazine, reported in their Feb/Mar. 1990 issue that "one way to improve your marksmanship is to rough out a family health tree that will let your zero in on any hereditary disorders that may be lurking in your future. A family health pedigree can serve many purposes. It may alert You to a health condition that runs in your family, which prompt you to watch your diet more or have more screenings by your doctor."
On Nov. 24, 1993 the WALL STREET JOURNAL reported on research being done at Johns Hopkins Hospital at Baltimore into families with histories of manic depression (extreme mood swings). They, together, with genetic experts at Stanford University are hoping to find the manic-depression genes by local a specific kind of family. Manic depression, incidentally, afflicts 2.5 million Americans and 20% of the cases end in suicide. The article illustrated the familiar tree of the poet Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) who suffered from this disease and showed how it was present in one degree or other among his siblings, his father, and his grandfather.
The CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER (Ohio) ran a; story in their Sept. 21, 1975 Sunday Magazine enticed "With Your Ancestors in Mind". It spoke of the new field of personalized psychic genealogy. A leading authority, Dr. Mary Matossian of the University of Maryland, was quoted as saying, "A family is an emotional system, with each member developing a pattern of behavior toward every other member. If one examines these relationships back through many generations, one often finds recurring behavior patterns."
Matossian said that to get an accurate psycho-history; the cooperation of family members is needed. "Look for alliances and counter alliances within the family, for prodigal sons and family scapegoats. Go back, if you , can, past your grandparents and see who was successful and who was a failure in developing family ties. Interview your living relatives for close, positive or ambivalent relationships, distant or withdrawn relationships. Look for separations, divorce, aggressive or violent behavior.
Of course, there's a good side to researching your family. It needn't become a negative hunt for adults. You can not only uncover hidden family lore, but you can also discover many cases of accomplishment and perseverance in the face of disaster. The qualities that led to such deeds are part of your genetic inheritance, too, and they may be the means of bolstering your own ego and giving you an insight into the genetic fiber that would help you to do the same."
Finally. Dr. Matossian concludes with these wise words, "Americans have long prided themselves on being a nation of rugged individualists but the truth is that most of us have derived our strength from our families. The more we know about our forebears, the more we really know about ourselves." The family history data that John L. Lybarger is gathering includes a place for medical history where it is known. Clause of death may be published, but no medical histories will be published in the family history.
PERSONALITY FOCUS
Outstanding teachers, David Lybarger and his colleague David Bender, were recognized in the COURIER TIMES, Bucks County, Pa. newspaper story 3 years ago (Nov. 28, 1994). They are both physics teachers in Neshaminy High School just north of Philadelphia. They make the teaching of physics real to their 11th and 12 grade students. They may launch coke bottles like rockets, or take a field trip to an amusement park to study the physics of roller coasters. "Seeing makes all the difference," Lybarger said. "The more you can get the student involved - doing, seeing, actively creating in physics - the more they're going to learn"
The science department chairwoman said that "Dave Lybarger's strong point is really developing a thought process with the kids." as the newspaper account reported, "Lybarger's practice of answering a question with more questions frustrates some students, he says. But he thinks it's the best way for them to learn. "Instead, I say "How could you find it out? Where could you start? Let's start there, let's see what happens"
His educational philosophy: "Teaching is good mostly at providing an environment and opportunities for students to do physics and to provide motivation. It's not important that I tell them (the answers). It's important that I ask them questions and they feel free to bounce ideas off me."
Best part of teaching: "I love seeing the tables turned. The student who come into my class and have gotten C's in science all the lives... when the lights go on, when they realize they can do it, they have a lot more energy to put into the class than a lot of the kids who are used to getting easy A's. They're hungry for it."
Born on August 25, 1968, David is the son of Earl David Lybarger and the grandson of Alfred Earl Lybarger. He is also a direct descendant of David and Hetty Lybarger who donated the land for the Lybarger Lutheran Church at Madley, Pa. He has two sisters and is married to Jen Magie. David graduated from Penn State University in 1991 and is working on his masters degree. He has been teaching seven years. He lives in Hatboro, Pa., a suburb of Philadelphia and is active in his nondenominational church, Calvary Chapel. With dedicated teachers like David Lybarger and David Bender we can feel confident that public education America is in good hands.
LMA'S PURPOSES
Because there are so many new readers of the LMA newsletter and because of the importance of the genealogical project and what this means financially for the LMA, it might therefore be well to review the articles of incorporation that brought the organization into existence as a legal body in 1985. Article I states the name of the corporation namely The Lybarger Memorial Association. This was chosen to carry forth the name of the organization that had been in existence in the 1920's and 1930's until it became defunct owing to the vicissitudes of the Great Depression.
Article II identifies the boundaries of the area to be served, i.e. the U.S.A. However, we also reach out to Canada and other countries where Lybarger relations may reside. The principal office of the LMA is given as it must be incorporated in a particular state. Originally it was in Trenton, N.J. but since 1995 it was moved to Delaware. OH as the registered agent, Lee H. Lybarger, changed his residence from Trenton to Delaware.
Article III sets forth the purposes of the LMA which shall be:
A. To preserve, maintain and/or support churches, cemeteries and other historic properties of meaning to the Lybarger heritage;
B. To encourage and carry out genealogical and historical research on the Lybargers and their allied families;
C. To bring families together into reunions and other gatherings which serve to enhance relationships among Lybargers and their allied families;
D. To otherwise support those efforts which further the aforementioned purposes of the LMA.
Articles IV and V set forth the legal powers that the LMA may exercise. Article VI stipulates where the assets should be distributed should the organization ever become dissolved, i.e. to organizations furthering genealogical purposes. Article VII provides the name and address of the initial incorporation (Trenton N.J.) and Article VIII identifies those persons who are to serve as the initial trustees until elections for a full term are held.
There then follow the by-laws of the LMA. Copies of the articles and by-laws are available upon request to anyone who requests them. It is only asked that a stamped (55 cents) self-addressed envelope be included with the request.
If anyone would be interested in becoming active in the LMA by serving as a trustee or by working on a project that carries out one of its purposes, they are strongly encouraged to do so. They only need to write to the president, John H. Lybarger, 901 St. Clair Ave., New Lexington, OH 43764.
LYBARGER WEDDING
A wedding on February 22, 1997 united in marriage Lori Jill Roberts and Timothy Todd Lybarger at the Lakeholm Church of the Nazarene in Mt. Vernon, OH. The Rev. E.D. Roberts, grandfather of the bride, officiated. Tim is the son of Jan and Beryl Lybarger. Also attending was Tim's grandmother. Margaret Coe Lybarger, wife of the late Merle Cotton Lybarger.
LYBARGER WEB PAGE
You can now learn about the Lybarger genealogical project and chat with other Lybargers on the new Web page created by John L.

50TH DEATH ANNIVERSARY
Carol Montrose sent in an item that it was 50 years ago on Jan. 29th that Chester A. Lybarger died in Newark, OH. He was born on Nov. 13, 1885, the son of Samuel and Margaret (Orwig) Lybarger. He was married at the time to Bertha M. Lybarger. He had five brothers Clyde, John, Paul Leo, and Ralph.
