I took a quick look at the www.usgenweb.com entry for Ohio, Guernsey county and didn't see much. I did find this http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi Looks like there are a couple of people working on this line.
oops, the link didn't completely come through. I entered
Clements, James death: Ohio
The entry also covers Robert Brown.

The Ohio Historical Society, located in Columbus, Ohio, has an entire section of books from Guernsey County. Have you tried the court house? Ancestry.com? I believe that the Archives at OHS has a service that will look up information for you. Their phone number is: 1-800-686-1545 or 614-297-2332. Their website is: www.ohiohistory.org. Hope this helps!

Ancestry.com has a lot of the early Guernsey Co. newpapers scanned, and Guernsey Co. has it's own genealogical library that has been a great help to me. I've got death records, marriage records, wills, and obits from them for my husband's great, great, great grandfather's family.
if you Google Guernsey Ohio (genealogy) several good links will come up, including the library and a lady who's posting Guernsey Co. data to her website-I don't have that link any more because I had to get a new computer, but it's easy to google.

This is my family. Martin Bigger Maharry was my great grandfather. His grandmother, isabella clements, lived with him after her husband died in Illinois. She is buried in Lenox, Taylor, IA and I have a picture of her headstone but I don't have any info about their immigration or when. I don't know how to post the picture on here. Sorry

FIND A GRAVE shows Isabella Clements Maharry/Martin Bigger Maharry 1853 - 1938/
and Sarah Isabel Maharry Muncy 1855 - 1932

Sadly there are very few passenger lists showing early immigration unfortunately.

They may not have travelled directly from Ireland to America. Could have left from port in Scotland or England and/or arrived in Canada first.

there is something funny here. and I cant get to the bottom of it at all. I have Robert brown & wife Esther.who where both born in Ireland married in Ireland and moved to gurnsey ohio. and Robert died there before 1823. and I have one of there daughters getting married in gurnsey ohio in 1815. so I think they must have moved there sometime early 1800. now here is the bit I cant get I have one of there sons born in Ireland 1821 married in Girvan 1851. so how could this be it is all the same family. and I still have Esther staying in gurnsey ohio. and she died there as well. I have never been able to find any information about there immigration to America at all or if any of the family came back to Ireland
