William Corsaw vs. Corena Corsaw-Divorce, Box 125, Monroe County Civil Court Records, Monroe County History Center, Bloomington, Indiana. NOTE: The item below was abstracted by Randi Richardson from an original, handwritten document in the file box noted above; it is not necessarily the only document in the file. The two pages of this document were joined vertically and a fairly large rectangle was clipped from between the pages. There is no record of this divorce noted in the Monroe County (IN) Divorce Index. Neither is there a record of the marriage or any evidence of the couple in 1860 or 1870 Monroe County census records. According to the digital collection of Indiana Marriages 1811-1959 available at FamilySearch.org, William Corsaw married Corena Ann Young in Owen County, Indiana, on February 11, 1852. In 1865, William Corsaw, a resident of Monroe County, sued his wife, Corena Corsaw for divorce. They reportedly lived together until 1859 when he went to Michigan to locate a new home. After finding something suitable, he wrote to Corena and asked that she sell his personal property. With the money from the sale of his property, together with money he sent her to defray the expense of her move, he asked that she join him. Instead, she took all of the money, moved to Minnesota without telling him, and abandoned his little son born to a prior marriage.
