    1. [INOWEN] Researching REDNOUR (various spellings) family of VA.>KY>IN
    2. I'm researching the REDNOUR family of VA and possibly the Alsace area of Germany......My brickwall is Noah Henry RENDOUR Sr. b. ca1805-1812 VA d. ca1864 VA ??.....Family lore says that his parents or grandparents came from the Alsace area of Germany.....He was m. Permelia C. HAYDEN b. 1830 KY. I have no marriage record for them, but their first child was b. 1847 Monroe Co.IN. They later settled in Franklin Twp, Owen Co.IN. Their children were: Noah Henry Jr. b. 1847, Martha Jane b. 1850 IN., William M. 28 Apr 1855 IN, Mary Francis b,. 1856 IN, Caroline b. 14 Oct 1859 IN, & Samuel Elias b. 8 mar 1863 Owen Co.IN. Permelia died 24 Sep 1916 Owen Co.IN and is buried Farmers Station Cemetery Owen Co......Noah Henry is a bit of a puzzle....family lore goes that Noah Henry went to visit his son Noah Henry Jr. , who was wounded at the battle of North Anna ...May 1864 and while there was murdered in a Tavern?? I have no proof of this but would like to find out if there is anyway possible to find out. Noah Jr's paper state North Anna and also mention City Point VA....so I would think it would be in this area somewhere.....If someone in that area would know of any records I could search for this information I would be grateful to them if they would let me know....don't know what kind of newspapers were at that time in the area....or official records , if indeed it was a murder?? Noah Henry Sr. was a Chairmaker by trade as per census records that I have found on him.....If anyone is researching this family line, I would appreciate hearing from you.....have lots of family information to share after the family came to IN to live. Thanks so much, N.J.Skinner White in MI.
