His father was the son of Carter Hutchinson, who was a Virginian by birth. His mother, who is still living and now resides in the State of Iowa, can trace her ancestry back to the crew of the Mayflower. When the subject of this sketch was ten years old, his parents removed to Butler County, Ohio, where his youth was spent upon a farm. At nineteen, or in December 1863, he entered the service of the Union Army in Company M, Ninth Indiana Cavalry, with which he served during the remainder of the war. He participated in the battles of Franklin and Nashville, and several other less important engagements, in all of which he discharged his duties in a manner becoming a loyal soldier. On returning from the war he located in Posey Township, this county, where he has ever since pursued the avocation of a fanner and stock-raiser. His first marriage occurred August 20, 1868, when Miss Margaret E. Moore became his wife. She was born in Posey Township, April 15, 1851, being the daughter of Mordecai and Nancy (Gruwell) Moore. She died November 29, 1880, and on the 21st day of December 1882, Mr. Hutchinson and Miss Ridenbaugh were united in marriage. She was born in Rushville, October 8, 1857, being the daughter of John and Rachel (McMannis) Ridenbaugh, the former a native of Pennsylvania, and the latter a native of this county. Mr. Hutchinson’s first marriage resulted in the birth of three children, as follows: Elbert, born April 14, 1870, died October 4, 1882; Leona, born July 21, 1872, died October 8, 1872, and Elmer, born August 30, 1873. He and his present wife have one child, Essie, born July 26, 1885. Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson are members of the Christian Church. The former is a member of the G. A. R. and I. 0. 0. F. lodges, and he is a firm supporter of the principles of the Democratic Party. His farm, which is admirably situated, consists of 160 acres of excellent land, nearly all of which is in a good state of cultivation. It is in other ways well improved and, with its splendid facilities, it is a most desirable location. As a tiller of the soil Mr. Hutchinson has been very successful. He began life a poor boy, but his industry and perseverance have placed him in comfortable circumstances and given him a rank among the well-to-do citizens. He is one of the influential and prosperous farmers of the township, and he and wife are among its best citizens. For the past two years, in addition to farming, Mr. Hutchinson has been engaged in the grain trade, which venture, like all others he has made, has been attended with success.

I am trying to locate information on Fatima C. Newman McFarland, my great-grandmother. I believe she died sometime after the birth of my grandfather on August 21, 1875, and my grandfather's second marriage on October 17, 1878. They lived in the Clayton and Amo areas. Are there any newspapers or other records available from this time period? I would love to know what happened to Fatima. Cemetery records I have been provided do not have her listed. Any help is very much appreciated. My husband is seriously ill and a trip to Indiana is not in the near future. Conni in Ohio

Hi. Does anyone know of a good site that lists the categories for the columns on the 1810 Federal Census. I don't have a reference book handy here and am hoping I don't need to make a trip to the library. Thanks, Jill Arthur Barry <.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.><.> Researching surnames in: INDIANA - Arthur, Murnan, McGahey MICHIGAN - Boboltz, Mitchell, Doezema, WISCONSIN - Barry, Oravez, Hadrian and tons more. . .

The 1810 Census is the same as for the 1800 census: Name of head of family Number of free white males and females in the following age brackets: under 10; 26-45 including head of h/h; over 45, including h/h; Number of all other free persons; number of slaves. Information should reflect living status on the first Monday in August 1810. I did read that on some census', the male and female info. was reversed; but it should have males listed for the first 5 brackets and females for the next 5. Paula

Surname: Greenwood, McCan, Reese, Loder, Ray, Conner History of Rush County Indiana Brant & Fuller 1888 Page 859 WILLIAM R. GREENWOOD was born in Washington Township, Rush Co., Indiana, December 19 1832. He was the only son born to Samuel and Ann (McCan) Greenwood. The former was the son of Bartley Greenwood, of North Carolina, where Samuel was born in January 1804, and was reared in Surry County, that State. At the age of twenty-four he bid adieu to home and friends and started in company with his brother-in-law, Eli Reese, for Indiana, landing in Rush County in the fall of 1828. This was then a wilderness. About 1830 he bought a tract of wild land in the northeast part of the county, paying for it with money earned by working for George Corn at $5 per month. He was married in 1831, to Ann McCan, a native of Montgomery County, Ohio, where she was born, in 1811. He next engaged in work upon a sawmill, which stood one-half mile north of Raleigh on Flat Rock. There he worked eight years. He next turned his attention to farming, locating on the farm owned at present by Alfred Loder. In about 1840 he purchased the farm now owned by our subject, and continued to reside here until his death, which occurred on July 18, 1860. His wife survived him until March 30, 1863. They were two of Rush’s honored pioneers. William has spent his entire life on the farm, and in his boyhood got some schooling, and the first teacher he ever went to is living; he is Dr. John Ray, of Newcastle. On December 29, 1870, he was married to Miss Elizabeth L. Conner, daughter of Alfred and Eliza Conner, natives at that time of Washington Township, but at present reside in Indianapolis. This union has been blessed with live children: Nellie J., Robert J., Effie A., Una Ann and Omer S., of whom Nellie J. is deceased. Mr. and Mrs. Greenwood are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He is a Democrat in politics. Farming has been his chief occupation in life, and he now owns a fine improved farm.
