This site is focused broadly on all descendants of John Denboe, an indentured servant who came to the Crown Colony of Maryland in about the year 1664. Also, it maintains a special emphasis on the descendants of John Denbow (1797-1862) and his brother Bazeleel (1795-1857), early pioneers in the hills of Southeastern Ohio, as well as the descendants of Jón Jónsson (1841-1934) of Dalasýsla, Iceland, who was an Icelandic immigrant to Canada and now has progeny throughout North America.

432	Death Certificate says he died of prostatic cancer; however, my personal memory is that he had been climbing an oil derrick at age 80 and slipped and broke his back. I personally saw him on his death bed, laying on a couch, with his back supposedly broken. I was told that he contracted pneumonia and died from pneumonia about a week or so after I last saw him. His sister Cora was taking care of him. I have no way to reconcile this contradictory information.	Denbow, James Ira (I1201)

A man who for 38 yearsmanned the throttles of the giant steel and steam behemoths ondistrict railroads, took 'a turn' on a diesel locomotive hereyesterday- at the age of 93! Robert Reed, of Greenwood Avenue,Punxsutawney, was given the opportunity to operate a modern dieselengine as part of a 'birthday present' from friends on the B & ORailroad.
