I have requested photos of the headstones and that htey be transferred so that I can add to their info on FAG. I do have obits from back then in other places- do you know of any nearby newspapers? Does Ripley Co have an active genealogical society, or anyone who can research? I would love to see the info you have about George Salyers- he could be a brother to Jane. I believe her father's name was Jonathan SALYERS. Thanks! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

There is a list on the Ripley County site of names buried in the cemetery. This cemetery is not that close to Otter Creek. My great uncle owned the farm for many years, we lived on the next farm. I did send Michael pix and still have copys but those names are not among them. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I believe that Carolin's maiden name was Hall. They would have married after the 1860 census but probably before 1861 or 1862 in Ripley county. I can find the online marriages for Indiana county but it only goes up to 1860. Thank you. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Very cool! Most of what I have has been scanned, so I can email you copies. Joseph's pension file is huge, though--about 250MB at full resolution. I'll either have to put that on a CD and mail it to you, or post it online somewhere. Let me know what you'd prefer. Also, if you'll tell me what you already know about Peter's and Mary's families, I'll try to fill in any gaps that I can.

There are some papers of a Hammond, I am unaware of who he is at the moment. I'll try to find someone to safely make copies for me :) While some are still in pretty good shape I'm very careful with them.

Do you have paper copies or scans? Unfortunately, I don't have anything on Margaret--my line descends through her brother Joseph, and that's the only sibling I've looked at so far. I have his military pension file, if you'd like to see that--it's quite extensive. I have a few other documents that mention Peter and his family from Cabell Co., WV, but frankly, a lot of what I have is not well organized at the moment. I've traced Margaret's mother's line--hers is very interesting. I have Peter's father Robert in Stokes Co., NC, but that's as far back as I've gotten with him. I have some info on the related Scales line, though. Please email me and we'll trade documents! I'd be very interested to see Margaret's side of the family. My email is rmuckerheide _at_ yahoo.
