Sharon, have I written to you on the Collins line before? Do you have any in Clay? My Rebecca Collins married in Harrison, lived in Orange Co, and I am wondering if she had Clay Co. connections too? Dottie

Sorry, no, I married a Collins; he was from California and his family immigrated from Ireland to Iowa and Nebraska and then California. Met him after I left Indiana.

To American. (also shows Jacob's brother Heinrich, his wife Eva Christina Holzle and their six children). I believe this to be the Jacob Sinder who came to Clay Co., IN in 1850 and married Mary Jane McGinnis 2 Feb 1860 in Clay Co. They had the following children that I know of: George b 6 April 1863, d Oct 1864; Malissa d 1869; Charles M. d 1861 all buried in Old Bowling Green Cemetery; Annie b Abt 1870; John b Abt 1873; and Susan b abt 1875. Susan married Samuel Tilford abt 1898 and appears with her husband and father in the 1900 census of Harrison Twp., Clay Co., Indiana.

You can just type in Otto Frenzel and get a lot of info. The name is spelled differently from ours. It's unusual you should have an Otto. I don't think they are related in any way to the Fernsel's. They are a large family and so close to Clay County. Well, Indiana anyway.

Who were these women? My Bird family were miners in the Diamond and Fontanet areas.

Your 2G GF was a neighbor of my 2G GF, George McCullough. I offer as speculation that your Thomas S. Roberts came to Clay County IN from tthe Montgomery County (Mount Sterling) KY area with a group of KY families including the Yocums, Wools, Stewarts and McCulloughs. I searched the Government Land Office Rercords Web Site ( <A HREF="http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/PatentSearch/Default.asp?">Click here: Land Patent Search - BLM GLO Records</A> ) (http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/PatentSearch) and found that he bought land that was next to Jacob Yocum's parcel of land. Going by written history and the land purchases by the families listed above, I am theorizing that they all came over together from Montgomery County KY in 1830 or 1831. These pioneers would frequently buy land from the Government Land Office in Vincennes, IN (which is located across the width of the state from Clay County IN - requiring probably a two or three day ride by horseback) on the same day. The location of the lots in respect to each other makes them all neighbors. There was a cholera epedemic in the Mt. Sterling area in 1830-31, but I believe the decision to come to Clay County IN was already made before the cholera broke out. Your ancestor had land (13N 6W Sec 35) that was next to a 160 acre parcel owned by John S. Yocum and John Downing (13N 6W Sec 34) in Van Buren Township and two sections down from my 2G GF, George McCullough (13N 7W Sec 33) and his wife, Rachel Yocum McCullough. His first purchase in 1839 was of 12N 6W Sec 18 for 40 acres in Dick Johnson Township. I would say that it is a pretty safe bet to believe that your 2G GF was with that group of pioneers that came to Clay County from KY in 1830 or 1831. Perhaps you and I can exchange information on our families. Alan McCullough

I've been searching for my 3rd ggf Thomas Shockley Roberts for many years now with very little luck. Thomas Roberts was born 1792 in KY, maybe Henry County. He died in Clay Co IN. His wife was Nancy Ann Kelly, b. 3 Aug 1797 in KY (maybe Henry County), a dau of Samuel Kelley; they m. c. 1819. The children that I have listed are: Jeremiah Roberts (b. 16 Jan 1820); Joseph Roberts (b. 22 Apr 1821); Martha Roberts (b. 23 Dec 1822); Nancy Ann Roberts (b. 27 May 1824 KY-d. 17 Feb 1875 - m1. Wm King Matkins c 1845 & m2. Almanzo Hapenny); Sarah Roberts (b. 1 Jan 1826 KY in 1850 living w parents in Van Buren Twp Clay Co IN); Asa Roberts (b. 27 Apr 1828); William T. Roberts (c. 1831 IN in 1850 living w parents in Van Buren Twp Clay Co IN); Eleanor Roberts (b. 20 Jan 1832); and Louise Elizabeth Roberts (b. c 1834 IN in 1850 living w parents in Van Buren Twp Clay Co IN). Interested in contacting others with information on this family. Bob Matkins Butte MT

I do have this information, I couldn't find them in the 1860 either, In 1860 parents would be Warren Presho and Rachel Ann Vananda or Vanander, they were married in Van Wert Ohio January 30, 1859, children were born starting in 1860, maybe one in Ohio, the rest in Indiana. I have heard in saline City, Clay Co, Indiana. but have not found them yet in that Census, it is 360 pages and not searchable yet. I have done the township for Saline city and they were not there. They later lived in Ossian Indiana according to Warren Preshos Civil war muster in Adams county. Thanks for your help, hope we can find something new. Especailly for Nelson Fernanda Presho or Warren Presho.
