Dear Lottie,
Your Queries in this thread cover 1/4th of the county, over a 90 year span. This is ...ambitious.
Can you be more specific? Full names, perhaps? Dates within a decade? Locations within one township? Were the five surnames you ask about co-located? Members of the same religious denomination? Farmers or townsmen? Civil War veterans? Landowners? Anything?
Better information provided will catch the attention of researchers in the area or time, and increase the chance of a meaningful response.
I've been County Coordinator for two and a half years, now... Five surnames, in any of four or five townships, over a 90-year span? Hopeless...
On those rare occasions when I have nothing better to do, I'll go fishing on your behalf... but you oughtn't hold your breath - it could be a real long time 'til the next one!
-Don Wherry
