Julia Ann Tatman was born ca 1839 in OH (according to the census).
Her parents are unknown. I have been unable to locate her on an 1850
census when she should have been living with her parents.
She married Ezra HOUSE on 14 Sep 1856 in Perry Co, OH. They resided in
Fairfield Co, OH in 1860. Living very nearby are Benjamin and Joshua
TATMAN. Joshua was the surety for Julia Ann and Ezra's marriage so I am
assuming he is Julia's brother. Since Bartholomew TATMAN is living with him,
I am assuming he is Julia and Joshua's father. I have no proof to back this up.
If anyone can prove or disprove this theory, please, please let me know.

Ezra House moved to Iowa Township, Washington Co, IA before 1870.
He is listed on that census with wife Julia A. and children:
Mary age13
Joshua age 11
Henry L. age 9
William age 7
Maggie age 5
Other Tatmans living in Washington Co, IA are:
Elias Tatman
J. W. Tatman
All of these Tatmans are related somehow but there are so many of them, it
is difficult to decide who is who. If anyone can help sort these out, please let me know. I will be happy to share the various
documents and information I have collected on this family.
Julia and Ezra HOUSE moved to Webster Co, NE before 1880 but are
enumerated on the Smith Co, KS census with the following children:
Joshua A. House age 20
Maggie age 14
Eva age 8
Annie age 6
Jewel age 3
Pricilla age 11mo
Living next door to them on this census are George THRAP with wife
Sarah Tatman. This couple married in OH in 1842. How are they related to Julia Ann?
According to Ezra House's obituary, Julia Ann Tatman House died ca 1888.
This would place her death in either Smith Co, KS or Webster Co, NE. Her
obituary is needed to clear up some of these mysteries. Before 1900 Ezra
House moved to Webster Co, NE and died there in 1919. He is buried in Red Cloud Cemetery.
I have many documents and census on this family.
If you are descended from this family, please contact
me so we can exchange data.
I love meeting new cousins!
