Then there is the 1910 census of Marion Ward 1, Grant, IN where she is divorced. The 1920 and 1930 census show her in Marion, Grant, IN. Are these two Armildas the same person? What happened to her other children? I show Sylvester D, Evert J, Ethyl, John J, Cecil J, Martha, and Elizabeth. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Author: LoriLittle63 Surnames: BEDTHIJA SMITH HURST YORK Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.randolph/3269/mb.ashx Message Board Post: BEDTHIJA BEDTHIJA BEDTHIJA BEDTHIJA BEDTHIJA BEDTHIJA I am posting my info through out different states and counties in hopes that this name has surfaced elsewhere. If anyone out there has any knowledge of this name I would love to hear about it and suggestions are welcome. I am looking for any info on my GGgrandfather whose, I believe due to the info that I have found and has been sent to me, last name is BEDTHIJA. His son, my Ggrandfather Charles Bedthija Smith, was born in Indiana and died in Illinois and Charles daughter-Zetta Ann SMITH YORK, my grandmother, was born in Illinois and died in Illinois. I believe his last name is BEDTHIJA and that he came from Germany and possibly returned to Germany. I am listing all info, and a couple of stories, that I have on his child/children. I have nothing on him. It seems that my Ggrandfather-Charles was kept at a distance with his grandchildren, my mother and aunt does not remember much about him and they were not allowed to visit him even though he lived within visiting range. My mother and aunt said that there mother-Zetta was never told anything about her grandparents-Charles parents. So whats the Hush-Hush all about? 1st Story: My sister remembers our grandmother, Zetta Ann SMITH YORK, telling her about a grandfather, she does not remember if she specified which grandfather, that came from Germany married a Native American (this part I question but she swears that is how she remembers the story) had child/children wife died and the grandfather not being able to speak much English returned to Germany. Marriage Record in Vermillion Co., Indiana: Book 7 page 119 list groom-BERTHIJA, Chalres (exact spelling probably a typo) bride-HURST, Minnie A. date-April 5, 1896. (If this is correct they probably lied on the 1900 census about being married 8 years) Book 7 page 49 list groom-STURM, Harry (probably Minnies first husband and probably Ross (Ross from 1900 census) father) bride-HURST, Minnie A. date-none listed. 1900 U.S. Federal Census, Edgar Co., IL: Line 24/BEDTHIJA, Charles/Head/W M/b. Oct. 1873/age 26/married 8yrs/birth pl. Indiana/fathers birth pl. Germany/mothers birth pl. Ohio. Line 25/BEDTHIJA, Minnie/Wife/W F/b. Mar. 1875/age 25/married 8yrs/birth pl. Illinois/fathers birth pl. Illinois/mothers birth pl. Illinois. Line 26/BEDTHIJA, Ross/Son/W M/b. Feb. 1893/age 7/birth pl. Illinois/fathers birth pl. Indiana/mothers birth pl. Illinois. Line 27/BEDTHIJA, Jack/Son/W M/b. Feb. 1897/age 3/birth pl. Illinois/fathers birth pl. Indiana/mothers birth pl. Illinois. Line 28/BEDTHIJA, Zeta/Daughter/W F/b. Jan. 1899/age 1/birth pl. Illinois/fathers birth pl. Indiana/mothers birth pl. Illinois. Changes name to SMITH after 1900 census. (or was using his middle name as last name in 1900 census) 2nd Story: My aunt remembered her mother, Zetta Ann SMITH YORK, my grandmother, telling her that when she was a little girl one day the mailman was questioning her parents about the name/names on the mail and when her parents explained to the mailman he said Just change your name. Divorced after 1900 Census. (I am assuming that he is divorced before he signed the WWI Draft even though it doesnt ask for marital statis he states his closest living is his daughter not spouse.) WWI Draft Registration Card: Signed-Charles Bedthija Smith on Sept. 12, 1918 in Terre Haute, Indiana. Residence-Terre Haute, Vigo, Indiana. Birth Date-Oct. 10, 1873, Closest living relative-Zetta York in Edgar Co., Illinois. The only other BEDTHIJA that I have found: WWI Draft Registration Card: Allen Co., Indiana is Henry J BEDTHIJA, born Feb. 3 1895 in Scotland, Illinois (Edgar Co.) Single with no next of kin and states that he has no one solely dependent on him. Death Certificate: Name-Charles Bedthija Smith Place of Death-Paris Hospital, Edgar Co. Illinois Date of Death-May 9, 1944 Birth Date-Oct. 12, 1870(this date is different from the 1900 Census and the WWI Draft, not sure which is correct) Father & Mother-unknown Informant-Jack Smith Place of Burial-Mt. Carmel, Brouiletts Creek Twp., Edgar Co. Illinois It has been suggested to me that this name could possibly be Latvian spelled Bettija. Any info surrounding this name would be appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my query and an enormous THANK YOU to everyone at Rootsweb for helping me find the info that I have.

Dear Andrea, I wish that I lived nearby so that I could ask to tag along. It sounds like rewarding work. It sounds like fun work to me... Have a great trip.

Remember the farmers will be in the fields planting the second week of April, they are already chomping at the bit with todays weather. 75*, maybe those last remaining snowdrifts will be gone by the time I get home from work today. Dates to look at: March 24 March 31 April 7 (Easter Weekend) April 14 We will be going through wet fields, some swampy areas, and woods thick with fallen limbs from the ice storm 2 years ago. There will be no nearby facilities, water or food. Plan ahead and bring needed items. If you have never done something like this, please wear boots or heavy shoes and have an extra pair to change into when we are done and back to the vehicles. Wear jeans to protect you from the thorns from the roses and blackraspberries. Bring your cameras ready to go. The later we go the more beautiful wood flowers we will be able to see as well. The wood floor will be covered with Spring Beauties by April. Wear Gloves, leather ones if you have them. Bring with you a small nylon hand broom or paint brush. I will bring a pressure sprayer with distilled water in it. No chaulk, no foams, we will only use dirt if needed to highlight the lettering. We can all go together afterwards and warm up and I will bring my laptop and down load everyone's pictures of that day and burn CDs and everyone will get copy that very day. Different cameras and different angles can really help us to better document this cemetery in its present condition. I also plan to give a copy of our pictures to the cememtery commission, Gina, and the museum. I will also be inviting Jesse Monroe to go with us. He went back there in the 1980s and did some restoration then himself and his sons from what I understand. He took pictures and laid a grid for location purposes. Jesse has ancestors in this cemetery and I am sure he will want to go as well. Time to go play outside.

Look at your mapping software or look on a map on-line. Find IN 32 running between Farmland and Winchester. The cemetery is about in the middle of the area boardered between 400 East and 300 East, IN 32 and 50 South. Once upon a time Base Road ran through this area, and it would be half way between 32 and 50 and would of taken you to this community. You can see that in the old map Gina has on the site.

I just upgraded my Acrobat Reader and it came with a free Photo Manager. It looks like a nice one so far. I know that there are some who I have e-mailed pictures to that could not see them because they could not find their viewer. This may help.

Hi Colleen. I looked at the worldconnect project at rootsweb and found several submissions for Temple SMITH md to Martha Ann SCOTT. You can email the contact or use the 'post-em' to make contact, and perhaps they might be of some help. However, out of the 4 submitted trees I noticed there are 4 different places of marriage for this couple. http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=gwydionleu&id=I076792 ID: I076792 Name: Temple Calhoun Smith Sex: M Birth: 1843 in Indiana Death: 5 JUN 1894 in North Platte, Lincoln County, Nebraska Census: 1860 Randolph County, Indiana Father: Temple Calhoun Smith b: 26 JUL 1806 in Adair County, Kentucky Mother: Prescilla Crossley b: 5 MAR 1809 in Kentucky Marriage 1 Martha Ann Scott b: 4 FEB 1849 in Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana Married: 7 SEP 1864 in Osceola, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania Children Charlotte Jane Smith b: 16 SEP 1866 in Melbourn, Boone County, Iowa Allas G.

Scott b: 4 FEB 1849 in Vigo Co., IN Married: 27 JUL 1865 in Appanoose Co., IA Note: Ancestry.com's database of Iowa Marriages shows a Joseph L. Smith marrying a Martha A. Scott on 27 JUL 1865 in Appanoose Co., IA. This is definately the right time, place, and bride's name, so the name "Joseph L." might be a transcription error of either the county clerk or the author of the book. Another researcher has Temple and Martha's marriage as 7 Sept 1864 in Osceola, Clearfield Co., PA.
