Familysearch.org (if you can believe it) DOES show him married to all three of those women. But, is there another Austin s/o George & Sarah (whoever they are) and not just THIS one s/o John Hyde Wert? ----- Original Message ----- From: <Limequilla@aol.com> To: <INMONTGO@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, January 01, 2009 2:42 PM Subject: [InMontgo] OBIT: Austin E.

At one time, maybe not now, the Indiana State Lib. recorded the parents' names for whichever spouse you entered first. Might be worth checking. Ancestry.com shows all three marriages (to Hattie Miller, to Julia Osborne, to Nellie Rogers ) as marriages to Austin E. Wert. Suzy, have you checked census records to see who he's living with in 1900, etc? I can check if you wish.
