And I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have, although I was fortunate to get my 2nd great grandparents written up in it, so naturally purchased the book at that time, but it seems like every time I look through it I find another name that connects to mine <grin>. It even has a picture of my great grandfathers brother's daughter. We just don't how fortunate we can get sometimes <grin>. Enjoy!

I tried to find what I could on Butlerville. It was established in 1840 and reads like it became a thriving community and possibly still is. There is a mention of an A.S. Conner that owned a general store. There appeared to be several stores and a couple of hotels. Also under Jennings County Churches and schools there is a write-up on Butlerville United Methodist Church. The orginal church was built in 1859. Among the pastors is a T. W. Conner. Could these be your relatives. Under the schools, there evidently was a high school until 1950 when it was consolidate with North Vernon High School. There is also a writeup on the Butlerville Masonic Lodge which was organized in 1856 and is still there. > > Hope this helps some.

According to the Jennings County History(a very informative book) , Butlerville was named by a man named John Morris who came to Jennings County in 1840. Morris had lived in Butlerville, Ohio before coming to Jennings County-therefore the name. He was a peddler who carried his goods on his back. Morris founded Campbell Township without a store or a town. Bryant Trickey lived in Butlerville, Ohio and was a friend of Morris. He followed him to that area and platted the town of Butlerville recording 41 lots on June 8, 1853. There were apparently a couple of very active sawmills and even some gold mining there. After the platting there was a general store and post office. More lots were later added and there is mention of a four mill and apparently a rail line(always a reason for development). If you would care for the complete write-up from this book, I will be happy to copy it and sent it snail-mail It's a little long to do all e-mail. Oh yes-my interest lies in the fact that Bryant Trickey was my great-grandfather. My grandfather, Mark Trickey, and my father ,Guy Trickey, were both born in Butlerville although the family of my father moved to Franklin County when my father was small(1890s). Hope this helps you. Jan Vogt

Butlerville is pretty small. My address is Butlerville, but I actually live about 10 miles away, in the boonies. It does have a post office, and a couple of churches and a combination gas station / grocery store. Of course, there are houses there too. It's pretty small. Don't blink you might miss it! -Cindy ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less!

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: SULLIVAN AND FOSTER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Hi.2ADE/1065 Message Board Post: Hi, I hope someone can help me. I have a copy of the marriage certificate for ALBERT R. FOSTER and MARY SULLIVAN, married October 26, 1880. I am looking for Mary's parents names, but cannot acquire the marriage application. I thought maybe there was a marriage announcement placed in the newspaper shortly after the marriage. If anyone has access to the old papers, could you please do a look-up for me. Thank you for any help you may be able to give me, it will be greatly appreciated. Thank you , Carol Foster

Looking for the burial site of Mary Ann Dean. I believe her husband was William. Her maiden name was Manhart. She is listed in the 1850 Jennings Co. Indiana census as being 62 Born in 1788 in New York. Any news of this person appreciated. Patri317@aol.com

Thank you so much for the time you've given to the Jennings County site. From the experience that I've had searching for my ancestors I would consider you one of the "most" helpful people I have been in contact with. Thanks to Denise for filling your position. I have been impressed with the genealogy information at the Jennings County Library while searching for my McClellan, Clerkin, and McCaslin ancestors and I have no doubt that Denise will do a great job. Michelle Riley

Could someone please tell me who I can e-mail for subject information. Wayne Pickett

Dear Terry, I have been away for a while, as I posted earlier, but was surprised to see your name gone from the Jennings County page. I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you SO much for your hard work on this project. Not only have you obviously given hours and hours of your time preparing materials that would not otherwise be available, but you have done so with great grace. I know that I am not the only one to say that your kindness and responsiveness have been a delight. I wish you brightest blessings!

Hi Terry, I met Denise when she first started in the library and know she will be a good replacement for you. I was down from MI doing research and she had just took over the genealogy room after the retirement of Mrs. Horseman. We will still miss you but wish you luck in your new home. I was recently in Indianapolis and went through Fishers on my way home and it looked like a lovely area to settle in. I'm just curious Terry. What are the counties that you are researching in IN? Might be one of mine also. The best of luck.

Terry, I have a feeling that the George that you mentioned is not related to me. However, I am keeping the information; at a later time I may lay it all out and maybe he is related in some way. The death of Mary Huber is George's wife; they lived in Seymour. I thank you so much for all the time you put in on this for me. I truly appreciate it. Have a great life! Enjoy! Thanks again, Carlene

Bye Terry, I think I can safely speak for the group and say that we will all miss you. I know that I will---You have really done a terrific job with the Jennings county webpage. and Hello Denise, I know you will be a super coordinator also, because you have always been so helpful when I have contacted you about my relatives...Thanks for taking over. Sherri Abromavage (a person with enough Jennings county ancestors to keep everyone confused !)

I didn't have a lot of luck on the Huber family last night at the library. Here's what I found: There was no obituary for Elizabeth Huber in the North Vernon Sun or the Vernon Banner. By the way, the listing at the library says that Elizabeth is buried in St. Joseph's cemetery (not St. James) and that Jno. Huber, civil war veteran, Co B, 82nd Ind Inf. is buried in St. James cemetery. I found an obituary for a George Huber (although this is probably not yours) as follows in the Vernon Times Fri., Mar. 30, 1917 George F. Huber, age 45 years, died at his home near here Tuesday morning at 6 o'clock after a brief illness of plural pneumonia. Mr. Huber was one of our progresseive and enterprising farmers, and his sudden death came as a great shock to his numerous friends here and over the county. The deceased is survived by his wife, and four small children, who have the sympathy of the entire community. The remains were shipped Thursday morning to Warren, Indiana, for funeral services and interrment. I also found in the Jackson county death index the following: Mary Huber, Jackson twp, age 65, died 10-17-1919, Seymour, CH3 pp 17 George Huber, Pershing twp, age 56, 4-18-1905, Freetown, H24, pp7. There seemed to be alot of Hubers in Jackson county. Hope this helps. Terry

Hi everyone, Denise Shafer has agreed to take over the maintenance of the Jennings county INGen web page. For those of you who don't know her, Denise works in the genealogy room of the Jennings county library. She will be working on changing, updating and adding new data to the page as she gets time. I've enjoyed working with all of you and will be around for a little while yet while Denise is getting her feet wet, but then I'll be moving on since I don't have any Jennings county ancestors. Happy Hunting to all of you! Terry

Dear fellow researchers, I have been gone from the list for some time due to several reasons, not the least of which was switching providers. For those of you whom I have made contacts with my new e-mail is jlopp@kscable.com . Also, I am still maintaining the online cemetery lists for Coffee Creek Baptist, Coffee Creek Christian and the Keith cemeteries at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~jlopp/ Sincerely, Jonathan Loppnow Topeka KS

Terry, I forgot to mention this; but it probably has nothing to do with anything. Fr Brown said that there was another grave for a Huber, but there was no stone or information on it either. Don't know if it could be a husband or something completely different. Just wanted to mention it. Carlene
