I am compiling information on 1860-1870. The following was found in the DeKalb Democrat for April 26, 1866. A legal notice stted taht George W. Woodcox and Byron A. Woodcox were appointed aministratiors for the estate of Cornelius Woodcox, late of Concord Township. Since there has been fires at the Court House, I am not sure if there would be probate records or not.

Can anyone tell me if there was a paper published containing obituaries for the St. Joe/Newville area in 1864? I am lookong for information on Cornelius Woodcox who died 20, March, 1864 and is buried in the old Evergreen cemetary in Newville, DeKalb, IN. His wife died sometime in 1882/3 (Mary/Polly Saylor) and is buried there also. I do not know where she lived after her husband died but must have been in the area. Any help would be appreciated.

Well my Fair's crossed the Ohio/Indiana border and headed north a bit. They were in Miami and Montgomery Counties. Peter was one of the original pioneers of DeKalb Co. and was the first Commissioner. The Zerfus/Surfas/Surface family is connected also with mine. I hope to locate more researching theses families. Henry Fair is said to have died along the trail to Oregon from Cholera. Some say he was buried near the fork of the North Platte River. Henry and his half-brother Peter were leading a Wagon Trail, Peter continued and I would like to learn more about these two brothers..

Hi All I am seeking info on these surnames: Baber Barge Shaw Turley Woods Hatchett Hardy Dawson Schrimager Kelly Fleetwood Thank you. Lyne [email protected]

The WPA voters registration index for 1920 lists the place and date of naturalization. Also there is a book Index to Indiana Naturalization Records published in 1981 by the Indiana Historical Society in Indianapolis in which I found a DeKalb ancestor. Cheryl Milukas

The intention and declaration did not need to be filed in the same place, just "in any court of record" usually in the area the person lived. In Ohio, I've found Naturalization papers in Chancery court till mid 1800's then Probate court...after about 1908 they'd be with Immigration & Naturalization District office...(hopefully). They needed to be in the US for 5 years to file intent, then a year longer for final papers. Except: if they served in the military, usually most of the "criteria" was waived I believe.... check the census 1900 and more recent to see if they're listed as naturalized.... Good hunting.

Hi, What information is available on naturalization papers from the 1850's? I have a paper ,that was sent to me, where my gg-grandfather was pledging his allegiance to the United States. (He was from England). There is no title on this paper to tell what it is. It looks like a Declaration of Intent. Would his Petition for Naturalization papers be in DeKalb County as this other paper was? How much information did the Petition for Naturalization give back then? I'm hoping to find the ships name, and if he came with any siblings or other family. I would surely appreciate some help. Thanks! Yours in Christ, Debbie

I'll second that and add to it...is there an index of naturalizations for DeKalb county? I've always wondered if our LUMM and Bassa/Bassie/Basse/Massey?(spelled all different ways in dekalb birth records) families were naturalized there. Originally from Kassel Germany areas...so I kinda wonder if Henry Lumm et al are buried in the Hessen cemetery in Dekalb too. Kathy
