There are bunches of Mikesell buried there, and in Union City Cemetery and the (Peter) Hoover Cemetery south of Union City, and there are some in Bartonia as well. Probably in Fountain Park as well.

Karleen, I do not know the Smith Family line, have only looked things up here and there. So I have no idea who the minister would be or who he would be related to. You as being a member of the public do have access to the microfilm available as anyone else in the United States, as long as you have a valid public library card, you can do an inter library loan, and borrow any microfilm from the Indiana State Library. I was just trying to get on, but the library's web-site seems to be down at the moment. So try later to search for microfilm. www.statelib.lib.in.us www.statelib.lib.in.us/www/isl/whatwehave/dbindex.htm I have never borrowed a microfilm or book from another library, but I imagine that you look for what you are wanting and get the details of that and go to your local library and request to borrow it through your library. Billy Baker maybe able to answer this particular question better, as he borrows film all the time for us to benefit from. Andrea

No longer looking to Randolph Co Smiths' my Smith's were in Owen Co IN and my Scott's were in Sullivan Co IN. Due to a connection to a Shamblen Family line. Elizabeth Scott dau of James & Mary (Unk) Scott, married an AUL/ALL,. their daughter married a Shamblen who in turn had a son who had a daughter Gladys Pearl Shamblen cousin to my Gertrude Smith daughter of Temple & Martha (Scott) Smith. Actually a 1st cousin. Martha it turns out is the sister to the Elizabeth Scott. She met up with Temple Smith son of John A. & Hannah (Gibson) Smith of Owen Co IN. Good luck in your search it only took me the last 5 years of my 29 years of doing Genealogy to find this connection.

Lynn is a town in Washington Township, in southern Randolph County. The Mississnewa and the little Mississinewa are in the northern part of Randolph County, Running through Jackson, Ward, Franklin (Ridgeville) and Green Townships before heading north into other counties. I'll e-mail more when I get home, time to go. Andrea

Andrea, I know I have probably done this wrong, you will have to "enlighten" me again. Per the following message which was posted, I need to know who the "Lynn" is that you are referring to so I might contact her. And, what is the proper way to respond to the list? I am looking for obituaries for a Zebulon Cantrell d. 14 Feb, 1888; his wife Elizabeth Borders Cantrell d. 2 July 1872; daughter Rebecca Jane (m. Elias Phillips d. 26 May 1876), d. 26 May 1876; George W. Cantrell, d. 30 Nov 1872; and Mary Cantrell (m. Peter Hall) d. 14 Nov 1877. All buried Randolph Co. and probably Green Twp. I am guessing they could have been Methodist because an article written in Oct. of 1840 on Zebulon's father, Zebulon (Zebedee) Cantrell, Sr. tells of Zeb inviting the Rev. Methodist Minster, J. L. Smith, to his home. He said: "Now, my son, anything I've got is yours. I want you to come to my house up on the Mississinewa and see me. You know I am no Christian; I'm a poor wicked old man, but I have a big family of boys and girls, and maybe you can do them some good. (Zebulon's wife Hannah?) died sometime during that time period and he married Abigail Orcutt Patterson in Oct. of 1845). I'm a hardened old sinner, but I want you to come and see me." (The Reverend Smith, when a young man, had pulled Zeb out of the mud and defended him once in Caesar Creek, Greene, Ohio when Zeb was drunk and prone to constant inebriation.) "Poor old Zeb! All through the upper Mississinewa country he heralded the name of the young preacher, preparing a way for the gospel messenger to the cabins of the people, nor did he fail to give of his substance for the support of the church. His wife and several of his children made a profession of religion. The old gentleman became serious but I do not know whether he ever overcame his appetite or how he finally left the world." Any help anyone could give me in locating obituaries which might shed further light on this family would be greatly appreciated. I have tried to locate church info on this family and have not been successful. I live in Oregon and am unable to access many of the fine records you have in the county. Thanks, Karleen L.

Coleen, I went to the Winchester Library to look for an obit for Temple Smith Sr., and his wife Priscilla who died in early 1890. The library does not have those two years in micro film. Librarian said she thought that those years and a few others during that time, were destroyed either by fire or water, at the court house and did not get microfilmed. Now, that's not a dead end just yet for you. I have a suggestion for you to follow. 1. There were 3 newspapers during the turn of the century in Winchester alone (the library does not have them all), not to mention there were several other papers in Randolph County during the this time era. Lynn had one, Farmland, Modoc/Losantville, Ridgeville, Union City. There were probably others as well. Now, the only other microfilm in county is the Union City Times at the Union City Library and the Ridgeville/Randolph County at Ridgeville (Ridgeville was not in print in 1885 and 1890, but the Union City Times was). I can check the Union City Times. But I suggest that you go to the Indiana State Library, and look at what microfilm that they have (they do have the others that are not within the county) and borrow them through your local library interchange system. I would suggest looking for newspapers published near the Carlos City Area, like Lynn and Modoc/Losantville. 2. Since the church and cemetery in question are Methodist, you might try for borrowing the microfilm for the "Western Christian Advocate". This publication, from Cincinnati, Ohio, would have death notices and may have Temple and Pricilla's death and even Temple's father Samuel. I have never seen this publication, but if it is anything like what I have seen of the Quaker one similar to it, then there may be a notice of death/obit/story of their life type of thing, but it would have been up to someone to submit it to the publication. This may be available at the Indiana State Library but you will have to do an internet search for it one way or the other.
