I am still looking for Asa Bell, born Va. (no date known) who married Phoebe McNamer, born in Va. (no date known) They moved to south western Indiana, maybe Sullivan County or Greene County, before the birth of their son Benjamin Franklin Bell, born 1859. Benjamin Franklin married wife # 1 Sara Morin April 16, 1888. This marriage ended in divorce with one child "Ike" Virgil Bell. No date on birth. I know that Sara moved to Vigo County with her son, Ike. who rode a motorcycle with a side car.. Benjamin Franklin then married # 2 Minnie Ford in Sullivan , Indiana Dec 25, 1894. This marriage lasted until the death of Benjamin FRANK Bell in 1932 in Sullivan County, Indiana. Any one know anything about Asa Bell, Phoebe McNamer, Sara Morin or Ike Bell? Rose
