Surnames: FURLONG, ROSS Classification: Death Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GZX.2ACEB/200 Message Board Post: Hi, I just posted an old newspaper report on the coroner's inquest n the body of Nicholas FURLONG, who drowned in the Ohio River near Perryville Township, Indiana, in 1851. He had fallen off a flatboat while working, and it mentions some of the contents of his pockets! This was scanned from an original issue of the Evansville Weekly Journal dated April 10, 1851, and you can see it online here: http://theoldentimes.com/nfurl51ind.html I hope it's helpful!
