Histories 
Tarbert Family History - Tarbert Family News Vol. 1, No. 1, page 1, "A Tarbert Family Newsletter" July 1997
Joseph and Nancy's story begins in Harrison County, Ohio, where Joseph and Nancy were born, grew to adulthood, married and started raising a family. Joseph Tarbert was born there on Christmas eve in 1838, the first child of John Sarah Tarbert. He was raised on the family farm with four brothers and three sisters. Nancy Knox was born the following year on Oct. 11, 1839, to Thomas and Eleanor Knox. She was the fifth of their nine children. Little is known of Nancy's youth except that both of her parents died on the same day when she was ten years old. No record is available to show who raised her. Joseph and Nancy were married Sep, 12, 1860. Their first child, Laura, was born July 12, 1863. A second daughter, Jennie, was born Jan. 13, 1866 and third daughter, Aletia, was born just a year later on Jan. 15. Joseph was a farmer, but it is apparent from subsequent events that he was also learning the carpentry trade during the next few years. By the end of the decade, Joseph had mastered his craft and the family's prospects were brighter elsewhere. It was time to leave Harrison County. Cont. - page2
