I find a Jane Bradford age 69 born in OHIO with a William Bradford age 56 (could this be a stepson instead of husband?) born in Virginia and Alice L. Bradfor age 22 born in OH (I would think that she would be William's daughter, or granddaughter depending on how old he was when he married himself). And they are in West River township not White River township. http://www.ingenweb.org/inrandolph/County/Westrivermap.html West River would cover areas like Huntsville, Buena Vista, Union Port, Carlo City, and Modoc. Luckly, they are in household #4 of this year and between a bunch of Starbucks, I would think that looking for them in the 1865 Wall map of the county, we should be able to find which corner of the township they lived. That might give a better indication of which cemetery to focus on for a search. Did you ever get any of those two packages from the Museum? Contact Monisa about looking at the map, it will be a whi! le before I get in there to look myself. Looking at the 1880 map that Gina has (see link above) that they were probably in the NE corner of the township, so are very close to Buena Vista. A current map would show the Buena Vista road as 300S, Union Port is at 625W, Buena Vista would be close to 500W. There is a very large cemetery there. The museum has a very nice map for this cemetery. http://maps.live.com/default.aspx?cp=40.119950|-85.077838&style=h&lvl=16&v=1# I don't know if the church that is there now would have kept copies of memebership for there, somewhere else besides the church building, which burnt about 3 years ago. A new church has finally been built. It is a Methodist Church. I have been told that it was origianlly a Friends Meeting, but I don't know for sure.
