OOPS! I goofed. This was in the Bloomington (IN) Weekly Courer, October 31, 1911, and NOT the November date noted previously. SHOOTING AT SPENCER Henry Baldwin, a farmer living about four miles north of Spencer, was shot twice and probably fatally injured yesterday afternoon by his brother-in-law, Homer Gantz. The shooting occured at the Baldwin home, Gantz apparently having gone there to settle a former difficulty. Both shots penetrated the breast and the physician gives small hope for Baldwin's recovery. Some time ago Gantz and his wife separated, the trouble between the two arising out of Baldwin's association with Gantz's wife. Baldwin is now under a surety of peace bond, the result of a suit Gantz filed against him some time ago. Public sympathy is with Gantz. Both men have several children. Gantz has not yet been placed under arrest, and thus far no move has been made by the authorities to do so. Gantz has never been in trouble before.

The information below may not be new to other researchers but it is new to me. I have listed these families in order of their listing. While each surname may not be significant on it's own, taken as a group and as neighbors, they appear to be related to early Owen County residents. Many of the children of Stephen Barns are either married to men with the same names as those listed below or married to children of men with the same surnames. If you are researching these families, I would like to exchange information.
