Did Indiana do a state census like some other states? If so, does anyone have an index or records for Hendricks County for 1875? I am attempting to find out what happened to my great-grandmother, Fatima C. Newman McFarland. My grandfather was born in August 1875 and his father, Tilman McFarland remarried in October 1878. But no one knows what happened to Fatima. I am assuming she died because divorce would have been pretty rare in those days but truthfully don't know. I have search the available cemetery indexes and did not locate her. Any suggestions or ideas is very much appreciated.

Do you by any chance have an Eli McFarland in your family?? His wife is said to be Sophia Renner and they are the parents of Elizabeth McFarland b:1837 in OH. Elizabeth was married to Wm. W. Martin in Boxly, Hamilton Co.,IN in June 1856. Just thought it wouldn't hurt to ask........;0) Janet ----- Original Message ----- From: <CBraun675@aol.com> To: <INDIANA-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, May 20, 2001 9:04 AM Subject: [INDIANA] Indiana Census | Did Indiana do a state census like some other states?
