LATTA/WORKMAN William Franklin Latta, b. PA about 1810, was in OH before 1837 when he married Eliza Workman, daughter of Joseph  Workman. William Franklin Latta was probably the son of Ephraim Latta (Br. 1, family 9), whose farm was within a mile of the farm of Wliza Workman's parents in Ashland Co., OH.  I'm searching for positive proof of William's parentage.
