Hi Charlene, Iroquois Co. Ind. sort of threw me... Is there really such a place or did you mean Iroquois Co. Ill.? Gina, hope you are dryer now! Take Care, --Jane -----Original Message----- From: Don Sidwell [mailto:dons@xit.net] Sent: Tuesday, September 02, 2003 12:53 PM To: INRANDOL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [INRANDOL] Re: Randolph Co. for Clear & Smiddy family Thanks so much Gina for the offer to check out the records for Isaac Clear & etc. in Huntsville. I live in the Texas panhandle. Would love to visit your state someday. I still don't know if Robert Smiddy & Urana Sallee Clear had any children together. I am checking counties now in Ind. for census bet. 1850 & 1880. I do know that Robert & Urana were still alive in 1903, living near Lincoln according to a bio. I have of my Gr. Grandparents in Kansas. I have no idea if it meant Lincoln Twsp or near the town of Lincoln, Ind. I am checking out both possibilities. Isaac Clear is my gr grandmother Elizabeth N. {Clear} Sallee's brother & Urana is my gr grandad, Samuel Sallee, II's sister. Brother & sister marrying brother & sister! My brother & I have checked for several years looking for a Robert Smeddy as it was spelled Smeddy in the Bio. & presto, I have just found him as Smiddy this past month in the 1850 & 1880 Ind. census. I have found Urana & Isaac Clear's sons marriages, on census & ect. They semmed to have stayed put in Cass & Miami counties. Samuel & Urana's sister , Lucinda Jane {Sallee} Cox lived all of her married life in Iroquois Co. Ind.

Duh, I did put that! L. Jane Sallee Cox & bro. Wm. Sallee lived in Newton Co. Ind. near Morroco both buried in Newton Co. INDIANA. Some of the offspring wandered over the line & lived in Iroquois Co. ILLINOIS. Thanks for keeping me straight, Jane. Our prayers go out to all of you in Indiana. Pray your waters have receded & the rain has stopped. We've forgotten what water & mud look like here!
