Surnames: Green Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/gh.2ADI/5551 Message Board Post: The Warren News, Friday, January 31, 1890 Obituary. Mary, wife of Rev. Lot Green, of Van Buren township, died on last Friday morning of pneumonia, aged nearly sixty-two years. She was a member of the Disciple church for over fifty years and was a faithful and devout christian. Palmer, son of Rev. Lot and Mary Green, died on last Thursday night, aged thirty years. He was afflicted with consumption for over thirteen years. At his own request a post mortem examination was held which showed that the right lung was entirely gone and also a large portion of the left lung. The heart had grown fast to the breast bone, and how he lived as long as he did is surprising. An ulcer formed in his right side ten years ago, and after being lanced continued a running sore until he died. Funeral services over the remains of both mother and son were held at the Disciple church in Van Buren last Saturday at 10 o'clock, the sermon being preached by Rev. George W. Henderson before a large congregation. Interment took place at the Lee cemetery.

Gill of Huntington, Indiana was killed July 30, 1945, while serving in the South Pacific during World War II. He was serving on the USS Indianapolis which delivered the first atomic bomb to end the war. The Japanese sunk the ship as she was redirected to Guam and then to Leyte in the Philippines to join the USS Idaho. During the journey about half way the Indianapolis was torpedoed and sunk by the enemy. He is officially listed as missing or buried at sea and his name appears on the “Tablets of the Missing” at the Manila American Cemetery in the Philippines. We are seeking information regarding his military and civilian life and especially to locate family members still living so we can send them the free photographs of the memorial. Remember, if he is missing or buried at sea THERE IS NO GRAVE but we will gladly send photos of the memorial to their families. I am a retired Hoosier from Madison County Indiana residing in the Philippines with my Filipino wife. We are seeking family and military information of nearly a thousand servicemen from Indiana killed in the South Pacific during World War II. There are 17,206 Americans buried here and thousands more that are missing or buried at sea and are honored on the “Tablets of the Missing”. Please visit our website to see the beautiful memorial located in Manila, Philippines. http://fizkid.tripod.com/ We visited the cemetery as visitors and left with a mission in our heart. We have been taking photographs of the graves of the Indiana servicemen buried here and have been uniting them (at no charge) with their family members in Indiana and across the United States. To receive the photo of your family member, neighbor or friend all you need is a working email address. Please help us find the families that might be still living of the men that gave their lives for our freedoms. Our project is only successful because of teamwork and your contributions are noted on our website. If you wish to help us we will be pleased to add your name to our ACKNOWLEDGMENT page. The obituaries usually did not appear till to three months after the death date. These are the most helpful in finding the families. If you are not a genealogist you can help by just picking up the telephone directory and find someone with the same last name and give them a call. It has worked many times.
