Thanks for all the advice. Since I sent the original post, I believe I may have found out what happened to the marriage of John Adair and Mary Alice Pattee (married 12/36/1876 Jasper Co. Indiana). I have found a family tree listing him as John "F" Adair not John "P" Adair. That might make the difference. I will need to pull my copy of their marriage registration from Indiana. "P's" and "F's" cane look similar on old manuscripts. If that's the case, John F. Adair died in 1878. How, I don't know yet, I'll keep looking.

Some useful information from Don that he asked me to pass along.... Re: [IN-OLD-NEWSPAPERS] 1850-1885 newspapers Friday, May 7, 2010 6:33 AM From: "Don" <dbemus@roadrunner.com> There were two or three different newspaper printed in Jasper county, Indiana during the mid-late 1800's. The Indiana State Library has a very good genealogy section with some on-line inquireable materials, i.e. early Indiana marriages. They also have microfilm copies of most older newspapers printed in Indiana that they will loan to other libraries participating in the Inter-Library Loan Program. There is a minimal fee for shipping and handling, usually about $5. You have to get your local library to request the microfilms. The other option with the Indiana State Library is their "Ask a Librarian" program where you can send questions through their internet site to their staff. Sometimes they'll actually do a look up. The easiest way to get their internet address is by doing a simple inquiry for "Indiana State Library" and use the link that appears in the resulting list. Once you're on their internet site you should find a link for their "Ask a Librarian" which should provide you with a blank space for entering your question. A couple other places that have copies of the old microfilms are the Indiana Historical Society and the Indiana Genealogical Society. While the process described above is specific to Indiana, it works very well for other localities. I've used the same process to obtain old newspaper microfilms from State or University libraries in New York, South Dakota, California, and Ohio. Another thing I've had good luck with that you may want to consider is local libraries in your area of interest. Many have a historical section with volunteer staffing that may be willing to do a lookup for you. Good Luck

It's unlikely that you would find information in the newspaper that far back. The only newspaper I know of from Jasper County is the Rensselaer paper and since they didn't live in Rensselaer I'm guessing it wouldn't have made the paper unless they were really sensational divorces. One place that you might find records though is at the courthouse. There would be records from the divorce proceedings and often they were very detailed. > Date: Tue, 4 May 2010 09:13:39 -0700 (PDT) > From: Robin Helt <rdhelt@yahoo.com> > Subject: [IN-OLD-NEWSPAPERS] 1850-1885 newspapers > To: IN-OLD-NEWSPAPERS@rootsweb.com > > Where would I find copies of Indiana newspapers between > 1850 and 1885.  I'm looking for any article that > references the marriage/divorce between John P.

Where would I find copies of Indiana newspapers between 1850 and 1885. I'm looking for any article that references the marriage/divorce between John P. Adair and Mary Alice Pattee (married 12/26/1876 Jasper Co. Indiana) or the marriage/divorce between Sylvester B. Jenkins and Mary Alice Pattee (Adair) (married 10/16/1879 Jasper Co. Indiana). In 1880 Mary Alice Pattee Adair Jenkins was living in Barkley, Jasper Co., Indiana. February 21, 1882 she married my Great-Grandfather Chester M. Helt. He died sometime after 1887 in Kansas. I do have marriage certificates/licenses issued for all of the above, but I don't know what dissolved the first 2 marriages. Thanks Robin

Palladium-Item, Final Edition, Saturday, September 30, 1939 Carl William SPALDING Driver Badly Hurt as Car Hits Truck [picture caption] Deputy Sheriff Ora WILSON is pictured standing in the open door (right) of the automobile that crashed Friday night into a truck on U. S.-40 about a half mile west of the city limits, injuring both of its occupants. Carl SPALDING, 34 years old, 112 North Easthaven avenue [now NW 18th Street], is in a serious condition at Reid Memorial hospital, suffering a fractured skull and other injuries received about 7:30 p. m. Friday when the car he was driving crashed into the rear of a parked truck on U. S.-40, about a half mile west of the city. SPAULDING was driving a car owned by Frank MCCONKEY, 36 years old, 606 Sheridan street, who also was in the vehicle. MCCONKEY suffered only minor injuries, and after being treated at the hospital, was released. The truck was operated by Herman COMBRON, 24 years old, of Indianapolis. He had parked it alongside U. S.-40 about 4 o'clock Friday afternoon, following an accident in which his truck overturned. It was loaded with general merchandise. According to investigating officers, the north half of the highway along that section is blocked off, and is in the process of being resurfaced. This necessitates two way traffic on one half of the road. Fred VOSMETER, fluffing down traffic at the west end of the detour, told Deputy Sheriff Ora WILSON that Spaulding failed to slow down when he signaled him. The automobile, he said, continued into the blocked off section at a rapid rate of speed. The car apparently went out of control, WILSON explained, and smashed into the rear of the parked truck, which is owned by the Transamerican Transport company. MCCONKEY 's car was wrecked badly. An ambulance was sent from the Richmond Police headquarters, and removed the two victims to the hospital. Transcribed by Michelle Kennedy Byrd exactly as it was written in newspaper. Surnames are capitalized by the transcriber for ease in locating surnames. Additions by the transcriber are in brackets.

Hello All, I just 'discovered' this resource. My apologies to those who are already aware of it but for those of you who are not, it might save you time and money. http://www.rootsweb.com/~bwo/index.html It is a list of book owner's who are willing to do look-ups for anyone that asks. They also are looking for volunteers but that portion will not be operable again until July according to the website. I think this can be a great resource to many of you. Good luck in your searches.

========================================= Meredith Thompson mere@augustmoondesign.com alternate e-mail: mere_thom@runbox.com Indiana Genealogical Society Newsletter editor & website manager http://www.indgensoc.org ========================================= Midwestern Roots 2005: Family History and Genealogy Conference Indianapolis - Some of the nation's leading genealogy professionals will present at Midwestern Roots 2005: Family History and Genealogy Conference, August 18-20 in Indianapolis. Midwestern Roots, co-sponsored by the Indiana Historical Society and the Indiana Genealogical Society, will feature over 30 presentations covering topics ranging from finding female ancestors, census substitutes, family food traditions and German SS records to baptismal records, preserving family papers, genetics and more. Optional pre-conference activities on Thursday, August 18, range from tours of the William Henry Smith Memorial Library, the Indiana State Library and the Indiana State Archives to writing workshops on preparing family histories for publication, computer labs on genealogy resources available on the internet and a workshop designed for library staff and volunteers who answer questions from genealogy patrons. The Genealogy Division of the Indiana State Library and the Indiana History Center Smith Library also will stay open late for extended research hours. Other activities include a lively panel discussion bringing together genealogists and historians to answer the question, "History and Genealogy: Why Not Both?" The evening will begin with a dessert reception at the Indiana History Center followed by a discussion with nationally-renowned historical genealogists Elizabeth Shown Mills and Curt B. Witcher, Indiana historian James H. Madison and migration historian Marianne S. Wokeck, who will explore how these fields can enrich each other, from uncovering the slightest detail of one life to seeing human history more clearly because of that life. On Friday, August 19, the conference will begin with the opening session by Mills. Mills will explain the standards and processes all researchers need to apply when using family history and genealogical sources. Friday will conclude with a banquet and Mills will give a presentation that encourages taking what is learned about ancestors and conveying it to descendants. On Saturday morning, Madison will begin the day by considering the various migration streams that settled the Midwest and show how their origins, timing and cultural features helped make the region a distinctive part of the nation. Other notable national speakers include genealogists John S. Humphrey, Diane Gagel, Elizabeth Kelley Kerstens, Tony Burroughs and Kandie Adkinson. The Indiana Historical Society and the Indiana Genealogical Society will offer six scholarships for individuals to attend the conference. The scholarship application can be found at www.indianahistory.org/midwesternroots.
