Jacob A. Jackson at the Coloniel Eli Lilly Civil War Museum, Monument Circle, Indianapolis. He served in three regiments from Randolph County, IN and I thought anyone who is interested or related might wish to see the photos and information displayed there. This museum is really worth a trip for all of the historical info available. Regards, Marta Jackson Vaillancourt

Old Terrel or Union is on both sides of County Road 1200 West, south of 200 South. Poplar Run is on the south side of County Road 300 South, east of 900 West. Cedar is located East of Windsor on Base road. You can get to it by going out Hwy 32 East, turn right on 1000 then on the Windsor and a large barn, then turn right again, this winds around to the cemetery. Windsor is on the south edge of Windsor, I found a Fairview Cemetery in Delaware County, Monroe Township, but didn't see one listed in my Randolph County Cemetery book, which county is it in? These directions came from a pamphlet on Randolph County cemeteries, I have been to the first few mentioned.

Is anyone working on the surname Reid, Reed or Read? I have found my line spelled each way on various documents. I am trying to piece together information on Jerry and Rebecca Puckett Reid, and their families. Jerry Reid's death record states his father was Dempsey Reed from North Carolina. I have two different marriage records for Dempsey, North Carolina Marriage Bonds, 1741-1868 Bride: Basheba Dolby Groom: Dempsey Reed Bond Date: 02 Mar 1829 County: Northampton Record #: 01 170 Bondsman: Lazarus Cook Witness: Matt Calvert Bond #: 000091786 Indiana Randolph County MARRIAGE: Patterson Reed, Elizabeth Dempsey Spouse: Patterson, Elizabeth Reed, Dempsey Marriage Date: 15 Sep 1836 I have been looking at the census records and there are several Dolby's from North Carolina, I found Dempsey Read on the 1840 White River Township Census, but nothing for 1850. 1840 Randolph County White River Township, Indiana Census Page 8. Dempsey Read Head of Families. Free Colored Persons 2 Males Under 10, 1 Male 24-35, 3 Females Under 10, 1 Female 10-24. Zachariah Dolby and his family is listed on Page 8, One family is between them. The Dolby's are listed as Free Colored Persons also. 1830 Buncombe County, North Carolina Census Page 269. Dempsey Reed Head of Families Free Colored Persons 2 Males Under 10, 1 Male 24--36, 1 Female 55-100. I believe they were Indian, my father remembers seeing a photo of an Indian in his Civil War Uniform when he was little. I am trying to find someone to share info with, on any of these families. Rebecca Reid's parents are listed as Garrett and Mary Puckett, the spelling is different on her death record. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gina in Muncie

Surnames: SMITH, DAVISSON Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Bk.2ADE/1326 Message Board Post: Would someone be so kind to look up JOHN E. SMITH (1827-1865) in the 1850 Randolph County, Indiana census and/or Knox Co. IN. He should be about 23 years old, and his parents were likely born in (West) Virginia. John's Civil War pension papers merely state he was born in "Randolph". There is a Randolph Co, WV - but since many of the Smiths living near John in the 1860 WV census, had lived or were born in Knox County IN, I started wondering about Randolph County, IN. John has been my brick wall for the last 25 years! THANKS!
