But this post took my eye because I am looking for more information on my husband's Ford family. The reference to Indiana caught my attention. His great grandfather Joseph Shields Ford was born in Brainbridge, Indiana, in 1858 (married Carrie Kallmeyer, b. 1865). They settled in Missouri, Franklin County. Does this ring a bell with anyone's Ford line?
