Hi, Thanks for the map. FYI, Here is one with county names inside the boxes.: http://www.accessgenealogy.com/indiana/incty.gif Many thanks to Lana who believes it says Clinton Co. which is right next to Tippecanoe, which is where they are in 1891, so I will try that and see if I can find Mary's birth record there. Looking at it, I do see how it could be Clinton Co, especially considering the person's handwriting that filled out the form! If anyone else has any other ideas, I am very open to any and all suggestions. I will also let the list know if I do find Mary born in Clinton County. Thanks to everyone who has helped with this. I very much appreciate even the smallest bits of help I have received. I received Mary's obit today hoping it would have where she was born, but it only has what I already knew. Her death certificate is less helpful, as it says she was born in the US. Oh well. Hopefully, Lana is correct with Clinton Co. and I will be able to find her now.

I am a fare judge of handwriting of early times but this leaves me in a quandry to be sure. I hope if someone cyphers this out they will post it to the list so I can know what the writing is supposed to be. I have a friend in OR that I will send this to to see if she can make anything from it. I do wish you luck and that they post the results to the list. Beej-Fireflower I see nothing on the map that resembles the writing on the Page in line 16. However Indiana is ledgable and looks like the last two Letters might possisble be Co. but inbetween that is very suspicious. <A HREF="http://165.138.44.13/citytown/INDMAP.HTM">Location of Indiana Counties on the map</A> http://165.138.44.13/citytown/INDMAP.HTM ==== INDIANA Mailing List ==== Firstmom's Genealogy Resources - Indiana http://khuish.tripod.com/indiana.htm ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
