He died in Noblesville, IN 09 June 1902 in Noblesville, IN. I am trying to get back to Rhode Island where all census records indicate he was born there in 1822. Can't seem to get any information in that direction. Does anyone have any info or hints as to where to go from here. John was also in the Civil War, Co 1, 26 Indiana infantry. He and Huldah had about 6 children in Indiana. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
