    1. [INKOSCIU-L] ALEXANDER and WARREN

    3. Hello Kosciusko County researchers! I thought I would bounce a couple of my "puzzles" off of all of you to see if anyone can help me come up with some answers, PLEASE?! ALEXANDER George M. (W.?) ALEXANDER. George Alexander is buried in Palestine Cemetery, Kosciusko Co., IN, with the following information on his headstone (according to Lester Binnie's Cemetery Records, Vol. V): George M. 1867-1948 (arrows on the stone point to his 2 wives, one buried on each side of him) Inez, wife of George, died 16 Sept.1902, age 34-6-26 Bertha 1871-1933 In the same row, buried right before the Alexander plot are William H. EILER and his wife Ellen. Ellen Eiler's maiden name was ALSPAW (ALSPAUGH), born in Henry Co., IN 1837, she was 1st married to James R. ALEXANDER, also of Henry Co. James and Ellen Alexander are recorded in the 1860 census of Henry Co., IN, residing in the household are the following: Alexander, James, 23, born in IN Alexander, Ellen, 22, born in IN Alexander, Leonadus, 2, born in IN Alexander, William, 4, born in IN James Alexander enlisted in the military during the Civil War and died at the battle of Cedar Creek, VA. In the obituary of Ellen (Alspaugh/Alexander) Eiler, 2 surviving sons are listed (besides her children from her 2nd marriage), Leonadus and a G.W. Alexander. Leonadus Alexander is my line and I have been trying to find ANY clue about the mysterious G.W. Alexander! Is the George M. (W.) Alexander buried after Ellen Eiler (Alspaugh/Alexander) that missing son? Binnie's Records of Palestine Cem. show George's birth as 1867, which would make my assumption WAY off, but is it wrong? The other possibility is also buried in Palestine Cem.: Gilbert W. Alexander 1860-1912 (could the information I have on the 1860 Henry Co. census be incorrect and the William listed was 4 months, not 4 years?) Buried with him are a couple of children and his wife Sarah C. WARREN, died 08/04/1891, age 30-01-06. Which brings me to the 2nd part of my "puzzle." WARREN I am seeking the burial place of William and Sabre (HOLLOWAY) WARREN. I have very little information on these 2 except that William Warren was the oldest son of James (04/18/1792-02/20/1867)and Sophia (Galyean) Warren (07/27/1792-10/25/1874) who came to this county before 1850, via NC, TN, Wayne and then Henry Counties in IN, they are buried in Nichol's Cemetery. We have placed William Warren's birth at around 1815. William Warren married Sabre Holloway in Kosciusko Co. on 02/15/1852 and they had the following children, that I know of: 1.William Harrison Warren, 1853-1921 Palestine Cem.; married Antoinette DREISBACH (my line) 2.Samuel Warren, abt.1857-burial place unknown; married Clara MITCHELL and then Rachel WIDNER 3.Sophia E. Warren, 1856-1857 Old Palestine Cem. 4.Martha J. Warren, abt. 1859-burial place unknown; married Pierce ERNSBURGER 5.George W. Warren, abt. 1860, no further info known 6.Anna Warren, abt.1869-burial place unknown; married James FUDGE I have Lester Binnie's Cemetery Records Volumes I, II, V, VII, VIII, and they are not only not listed in what would be the place you would expect them (Nichol's or Old and New Palestine Cemeteries) but they are not found anywhere in volumes that I have. William Warren is listed in the 1850, 1860, and 1870 census for Kosciusko County, and then he disappears, I assume he died. Sabre (Holloway) Warren is listed in 1860 and 1870 census, in the 1880 census she is residing in her oldest son's home. My final question, for you Warren researchers, is- does ANYONE know who the Sophia E. (Warren) EILER (02/1847-03/1868) belongs to that is buried in Nichol's Cemetery? She was the first wife of William H. Eiler and is buried next to Sophia and James Warren, she is too old to be their grandchild but yet too young to be their child! Thanks to one and all, Kathy
