Thanks, Jenny, this is what makes it worthwhile for Terry & I. None of the names in the 22nd but some are familiar sounds to me.

Hi Terry, My preference is for 1880. I would also like to contribute to the cost of copying. Enjoy the columns very much. Thanks to you and Antoinette.

Pat, although I didn't notice anything in the 22nd column, the following is a will that I had received quite some months back from a cousin, that I still had here in my InBox so thought I would copy & paste to you as it is the RICKARD surname (although not the spelling you gave me) it might help somewhat.

Hello, Jeanette -- I didn't notice anything in the 22nd for either name but you've been added to the ever growing list. It's a pleasure Jeanette. My roots are deep in Jennings County. I figured as long as I subscribe to the paper, read it, and save the 100 Years Ago Column that I could at least check a name for others.

Sherri, one item in the 22nd mentions, per following: W. S. Lett of Marion Township was overcome by heat yesterday and is still in a precarious condition. Although this is not your John Lett these little tidbits add a bit to their lives. Didn't notice any of your other surnames in this column.

Marianne - I missed an item completely - in the 22nd newspaper under BEECH GROVE was an item as follows: Miss Lizzie OTIS of Cincinnati is visiting relatives in this vicinity. Sorry that I missed it first time around.
