Hi Alan. The best I can do is the index to the 1840 census. No William Doty in Madison Co IN William Doty Clinton Co p. 710, Randolph Co p. 78, Warren Co p. 143.

Received this from a Lady that is from a Genealogy group from a retirement area where I work. >From Leigh Cowing! Recognize anything here? GRANDMA AND THE FAMILY TREE There's been a change in Grandma, we've noticed her of late, She's always reading history or jotting down some date. She's tracking back the family, we'll all have pedigrees. Oh, Grandma's got a hobby, she's climbing Family Trees. Poor Grandpa does the cooking and now, or so he states, That worst of all, he has to wash the cups and dinner plates. Grandma can't be bothered, she's busy as a bee Compiling genealogy - for the Family Tree. She has no time to baby-sit, the curtains are a fright, No buttons left on Granddad's shirt, the flower bed's a sight. She's given up her club work, the serials on TV, The only thing she does nowadays is climb the Family Tree. She goes down to the courthouse and studies ancient lore, We know more about our forebears than we ever knew before. The books are old and dusty, they make poor Grandma sneeze, A minor irritation when you're climbing Family Trees. The mail is all for Grandma, it comes from near and far, Last week she got the proof she needs to join the DAR. A worthwhile avocation, to that we all agree, A monumental project, to climb the Family Tree. Now some folks came from Scotland and some from Galway Bay, Some were French as pastry, some German, all the way. Some went on west to stake their claim, some stayed near by the sea, Grandma hopes to find them all as she climbs the Family Tree. She wanders through the graveyard in search of date or name, The rich, the poor, the in-between, all sleeping there the same. She pauses now and then to rest, fanned by a gentle breeze That blows above the Fathers of all our Family Trees. There were pioneers and patriots mixed in our kith and kin Who blazed the paths of wilderness and fought through thick and thin. But none more staunch than Grandma, whose eyes light up with glee Each time she finds a missing branch for the Family Tree. Their skills were wide and varied, from carpenter to cook And one (Alas!) the record shows was hopelessly a crook. Blacksmith, weaver, farmer, judge, some tutored for a fee, Long lost in time, now all recorded on the Family Tree. To some it's just a hobby, to Grandma it's much more, She knows the joys and heartaches of those who went before. They loved, they lost, they laughed, they wept, and now for you and me They live again in spirit, around the Family Tree. At last she's nearly finished and we are each exposed. Life will be the same again, this we all supposed! Grandma will cook and sew, serve cookies with our tea. We'll all be fat, just as before that wretched Family Tree. Sad to relate, the Preacher called and visited for a spell, We talked about the Gospel, and other things as well, The heathen folk, the poor and then - 'twas fate, it had to be, Somehow the conversation turned to Grandma and the Family Tree. We tried to change the subject, we talked of everything But then in Grandma's voice we heard that old familiar ring. She told him all about the past and soon was plain to see The preacher, too, was nearly snared by Grandma and the Family Tree. He never knew his Grandpa, his mother's name was ... Clark? He and Grandma talked and talked, outside it grew quite dark. We'd hoped our fears were groundless, but just like some disease, Grandma's become an addict - she's hooked on Family Trees! Our souls were filled with sorrow, our hearts sank with dismay, Our ears could scarce believe the words we heard our Grandma say, "It sure is a lucky thing that you have come to me, I know exactly how it's done, I'll climb your Family Tree!"

While NARA is considering a change to the fee structure for these documents, the information that has been posted is both premature and somewhat inaccurate. The Records Preservation and Access Committee, a joint endeavor of the National Genealogical Society and the Federation of Genealogical Societies, has contacted NARA officials for clarification. The following is the "official NARA statement" issued in response to our inquiry: *Begin NARA Statement: The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) will be issuing a proposed rule within the next few weeks that will revise fees for reproduction, including the "fixed-fee" orders in the NATF 80 series. The proposed rule will have a 60-day public comment period, during which time we will actively seek the comments of the user commwnity. The proposed rule is presently undergoing internal government review. When it is released for publication in the Federal Register, NARA will notify the national genealogical organizations and post a copy of the proposed rule on its web site. The message will include the exact URL and the address for sending comments. End NARA Statement* The Records Preservation and Access Committee will continue to monitor this proposal, and will post relevant information on the News and Events page on the NGS web site (www.ngsgenealogy.org) and Records Preservation and Access pages of the Federation of Genealogical Societies' Web site (http:www.fgs.org) when it is available.

Hi-Can someone tell me if it is possible to obtain a copy of the entire Estate file on an individual who died in the 1960's in Madison County? If so, do I need to state my relationship to the individual or that it is for genealogical purposes only. Thanks. Carol K.

Sandy, thanks for the information of the glo records, I've already found land records of twelve different ancestors. Don Cliff

Can someone who has access to the 1840 Federal or State Census for this particular area, please do a look-up for me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1850 Federal Census ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William Doty b. abt. 1789 from PA m. Margaret b. abt. 1795 from VA Children I have listed are: Margaret Doty b. abt. 1826 OH Robert W. Doty b. abt. 1829 OH Joseph Doty b. abt. 1831 OH Eunice Doty b. abt. 1835 IN ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The 1850 Census has them as you see above, but I believe there are more children of this marriage. If at all possible, please list the entire family if available. This confirmation is crucial to establishing a link, (this is MY brick wall). The person I am trying to link with this ancestor is as follows. He is listed on the Census in a household in very close proximity, with the same name and the above listed individual is the right age to be his father. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1860 Federal Census ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William S. Doty b. 1849 OH m. 2-14-1842 Caroline Yount b. abt. 1825 OH Children: Mary E. Doty b. abt. 1844 IN Amanda R. Doty b. abt. 1845 IN George S. Doty b. abt. 1846 IN Robert H.

That's OK. I was just responding to an e-mail from you that I received months ago. You asked me to check for the name Hodson, among others. It was the only one I could find.

Would someone in your area see what they can find on any relation that Thomas Andrew Hendricks, VP (Grover Cleveland) might have had by the name of Emanuel (sp?) Burns Hendricks? I have been told for many years that T A was a first cousin to the above mentioned Hendricks, who was my grgrandfather. Just haven't been able to find any connection. Thank you for any help.
