I believe you would have to have a calendar for that year and year before. You may be able to go to the University Library nearest you. As the calendars all have changed since this time period. Also which country would you be referring to? The University Library has researcher's that are senior student's. Tell them what you are needing and they will be happy to help you. Judy

I am fairly new to the genealogy scene, and have never claimed to be all that smart. I'm hoping that someone can help me with this. I have a stone that only has a death date of September 12, 1862, age 15 years, 11 months, 25 days. I have come up with two or three birthdates.

It is my understanding that my Grandmother a sister and a brother Charles Stewart were placed in an orphanage. Her brother Charles Stewart died 22 November 1963 I believe in a Nursing Home there in Logansport. If it help's Mr. Stewart the Grandfather had worked for then President Lincoln Administration. When Mr. Stewart left I believe because of deactivation of the unit? he opened a dry good store. One day when walking to his business or, home he was shot and killed. The male subject was hidding behind a billboard. I do not know if this was in Logansport or not. Or, out close to Logansport. My Grandmother was very small and other thing's happened also which caused her to be placed with the other children in an orphanage. At age 8 the Zellars adopted her and it is also my understanding that Mr. Jesse Zellars was a barber.

Fisher Funeral Chapel www.fisherfuneralchapel.com of Logansport is producing a video of pictures of Cass County WWII Veterans. Local vets and/or their survivors who have photographs from the WWII era are asked to individually label the pictures and include as much info as possible especially the name of the veteran, branch of service and place served. Photos will be returned once the video is made and copies of the video will be available for purchase with proceeds going to the WWII Memorial being built on the Mall in Washington DC. Copies of the video will be given to area libraries and schools for use in their Veteran's Day programs. Copies will be made of the pictures and given to the Cass County Historical Society for possible use in their new "History of Cass County" book that they are beginning to work on. For questions, contact Fisher Funeral Chapel 219-753-6301. Deadline for submission of pictures is Sept. 15th. The video will premiere at the "Night at the USO" fund raiser dance to be held Sept. 28th at the American Legion Post 60, 828 Burlington Ave., Logansport. Tickets $10 single $15 couple available at WSAL, Fisher's, Amelio's and the Legion. All money raised will go to the WWII Memorial.

It is my understanding that Mr. Jesse Zellars was a barber in Logansport in the 1800's some time. He and his wife adopted my Grandmother FlorenceGertrude Stewart at the age of 8 but I do not recall having ever met them. If anyone has any information on them I would appreciate it. She was at an orphanage there close. She was born in Hoover. Thank you.

Most all of Logansport is in Eel Township. A small portion may be in Miami Twp. since an area east of Logan was annexed. Some of the city to the northeast is in Clay Township and Northwest is Noble Township. Only a small part on the southside near the new Hoosier Heartland corridor would be Washington Twp.

Service: Civil War, Private, 87th Regiment, Company E William was born 1846 to 1848 in Fulton county Indiana, the son of Andrew Eslinger Dukes and Mary Troutman. He claimed to be eighteen years of age February 23, 1864 when he enlisted into Company E 87th Indiana Volunteer Infantry, following his father Andrew and uncle James Dukes footsteps, as well as his maternal uncles James H., John Greenup, and Darius Troutman. According to his enlistment he was 5ft 7in tall, with grey eyes and black hair. He enlisted from Pleasant Grove (Kewanna), and by March 8, 1864 was leaving Indianapolis to join the regiment. On or about May 24, 1864 while on duty at Snake Gap, Georgia, William was disabled by diarrhea and taken to the hospitol at Lookout Mountain, Georgia. Chronic diarrhea as they called it, lasted until June 28, 1864. He was ordered for medical examination July 7, 1864 resulting in ³no diagnosis² and returned to duty. December 28, 1864 William was again stricken with diarrhea and this time accompanied with fever, and did not return to duty until February 4, 1865. While in the hospitol the 87th reported William as asbent without leave Jan/Feb 1865. April 22, 1865 William came down with tonsilitis and was transferred from Lookout Mountain, Georgia to the hospitol in Louisville, Kentucky. From the hospitol in Louisville he was able to secure a thirty day convalescent furlough to return to his home in Fulton county, Indiana. During this time he is listed ³in charge of Sgt. Bragdon Co. E 17th Regt. V.R.C.². At the expiration of his furlough, he reported to the goverment hospitol in Indianapolis and from there was sent to the soldiers home. He then made application to General Carrington for transportation to join his regiment. Transportation was granted but was cutoff at Chattanooga, Tennessee. He was then put on detail service as a guard on the train from Chattanooga to Knoxville. He fell from the train and claimed injury to both shoulders ³without any fault or improper conduct on his part and said injury not due to any vicious habits². William worked (or walked) through his injury. June 1865 he was transferred to Company E 42nd Regiment Indiana Volunterr Infantry and honarably discharged in Indianapolis August 1865. William E. Dukes married Francis Anne Burns of Missouri February 23, 1881 in the city of Decatur, Macon county, Illinois by S.W. Needermeyer. Francis Burns of unknown parts Missouri, was born June 10, 1861. September 6, 1890 William made application for pension. On this application, he says since leaving service has resided in Indiana, California, and currently the state of Illinois. Had never recieved or applied for pension. Was previously married to Mary J. Robinson in Iowa, and Mary died January 22, 1869. He was then married to Adelia Philbert of Logansport, Indiana, which ended in divorce proceedings. At this time was 43 years old and resident of Easton, Mason county, Illinois. It seems that he tried very hard to obtain pension, starting September 6, 1890 and not receiving any payment until August 11, 1896. Pension was ten dollars per month, paid quarterly. Several affidavit filed by William¹s friends and neighbors claim that he suffered severe pain or rheumatism to the shoulders and was only able to do 1/4 the work of an able bodied man with said disability increasing each year. William E. Dukes died March 3, 1902 near Easton, Mason county Illinois. Francis¹ Declaration for Widow¹s Pension April 1902 lists three children. Andrew Edward Dukes born July 20, 1886. Mary E. Dukes born November 9, 1887. Sadie B. Dukes born November 8, 1890. Sadie said to be ³ mentally and physically helpless². Family tradition is that Sadie may have been struck by lightening as a young girl. Francis Dukes (Burns) married Joshua Griffith, June 1904, in Mason City, Illinois. bdukes@mac.com Brian L. Dukes, P.O.Box 427, Rock Falls, IL 61071-0427 Source of information was William's Service Record and Pension File Any additional information greatly appreciated.

Hi, Has anyone heard of the Marion Apple Insurance. I know for a fact that it was around in 1928. I would assume Logansport, Cass County, because that is where Caroline Grusenemeyer Miller died. It states in her will that she had to paid a premium to the Marion Apple Insurance. Maybe some has a telephone directory, where they could look up and see how long and where this Marion Apple Insurance was in Logansport around 1928. Charlotte E. Flock
