Karen I don't think any Kosciusko Cemeteries are online but I'd be glad to help. I have the Binnie books (Lester H. Binnie read all the cemeteries of the county in the 70's). Mr. Binnie died some years ago and I don't know if any of the books are still for sale by the Historical Society. Marguerite
I want the one in Kosciusko County. Had specified Indiana when I did the Google search so don't know why that one came up, nor did I notice that it said NE. Sorry. Thanks for the heads up, though. And while we're at it, does OUR Milford have transcriptions online?

Karen Those websites refer to a Milford Cemetery in Nebraska, Seward County, I think. Marguerite
I just found these sites which are supposed to be transcriptions for the Milford Cemetery. However I find no Gregg or Groves listed which I know are there--photographed their stones in 1990. Does anyone else know of stones that do not appear? It was supposed to be read in 1993 and updated in 1995. Why are some ommitted?

Hello, everyone--- The Kosciusko Co. page on USGenwweb is just about the best I've seen, and I've researched family from all over! (St. Joseph Co. is also great). You Hoosiers do quite a job; you leave places like New York, Massachusetts and California in the veritable dust! My question is really in two parts; two families I'm researching (my uncle's family, which comprises both): CHARLES HAROLD TUCKER, b. 1879 (according to later censes) in Seward or Franklin Twp., I believe. Who were his parents? I have exhausted all of your online data, which is fabulous. I know that the "patriarchs" of Kosciusko Co. Tuckers were Horace Tucker, and his son, Albert, who came from Ohio in the earliest days (pre-1850). However, I can find no evidence that my Charles Harold Tucker was from this line. There's a Charles M. Tucker who figures prominently in the data, but he's not the same. There is also an Alexander Tucker, who bought a half-section land grant in this county on 23 Sept. 1837. I don't see his name anywhere subsequently in the censes, but he may have had a son who would have been of the age to father Charles H. Tucker in 1879. Another pioneer was John Tucker, age 26, b. Ohio, in the 1850 census. His wife was from New Hampshire, and the 1870 Census lists both as from New Hampshire. A son of theirs may have fathered Charles H. Tucker. Other Tuckers, some from Ohio and some from Kentucky, I believe, moved in after 1850. The 1870 census shows Calvin Tucker, 37, b. Ohio and a shoemaker, as a possibility, and Joshua Tucker (perhaps of the Horace Tucker line), b. abt. 1845 and a Civil War veteran, as another strong possibility. However, there are no birth records for Charles Harold Tucker from this county. I haven't ruled out Fulton County (the family was from near Beaver Dam), but the Genweb resources are not as complete there. Does somebody have access to microfilm WPA births from 1879 for Fulton County? Miami County? CHARLES HAROLD TUCKER married one MERCY FLENAR[d] in Fulton County on 24 August 1902. They resided near Beaver Dam, in Seward Twp. My uncle, Harold Charles Tucker (names reversed), was born there in 1909 (he lived most of his life in Logansport, and died in 1996. I'm doing this research for the benefit of his grandchildren). The FLENAR[d] name is rather odd, because there have been so many spelling variants in the local records. They also didn't appear to have been landowners; only farm workers and tradesmen. First there was JACOB FLENARD, b. Pennsylvania about 1812, who shows in the 1880 Census as a geezer, widowed father-in-law to Harvey Robinson, in Seward Twp. The children dropped the last "d" in the surname and descendants are known to this day by the surnames FLENAR or FLENNER. After long research, I was only able last night to connect all the Flenners, Flenars, Flennars, and even "Fliner"s as all related to old man Jacob. In the 19th century, you only find this name in 3 or 4 other places in the US: Miami Co., Indiana; Buchanan Co., Michigan; and Burlington Co., New Jersey. However, I think the origins were German/Pennsylvania Dutch, from Berks Co., Pennsylvania. However, there's an off-chance that FLENARD is Canadian French, because of the obvious spelling: it "looks" French. Any clues here? TUCKER especially "bugs" me at the moment, because it's one of the most common surnames in the US. If I can establish a clear line back from 1860s Kosciusko County, Indiana, namely Charles H. Tucker's parentage, I have at least some hope of cutting through the storm of static of those prolific Tuckers! You may find Charles Harold Tucker in my post to Ancestry.com World Family Trees. My findings of the Flenars are also there. Thanks in advance; I've hit a brick wall, and I'll be grateful for a few clues! ---Bob Robertson Napa Valley, California
Elmer GLAFKE (20 Jan 1895 - 28 Nov 1988) married Nellie E. BRADLEY (born Jan 1885), dau. of John L. Bradley and Susan Lois Carr. Elmer was reportedly a TV repairman. They had grandchildren Roger and Gerald WALBERT/WOLLERT living at LaPorte County, IN, in 1945. I am seeking any further information on this family. Justin Long justinlng1918@mindspring.com
Jerome B. FRUSH, b. abt 1845, son of William and Ann FRUSH, m. Alice BRADLEY 24 Dec 1883. Kosciusko County birth records shows a daughter, name unknown, b. 4 Mar 1887.
