This is my husband's great-great-grandmother, so Barb's transcription is quite a treat for me: This is the MURPHY family that lived in northeastern Hendricks Twp. (There was another Samuel Murphy family in Shelby Co at the same time, but they lived -- I think! -- in the Hanover/Marion Twp area.) Sophia Emaline VAUGH Murphy was born in Preble Co OH in 1821 and died here in Shelby Co IN in 1891, buried in Snyder Cem. http://www.rootsweb.com/~inshelby/courthouse/estate_records/est_murphysophia.htm

I'm researching Frederick Kuntz (1824-1910) and the family of Jeanette Cross (1881-1960), wife of George W. Kuntz who resided outside of Manilla in Rush County. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

William D. BERRY estate, 1840-1844. Another full estate transcription from Barb. I know from experience that it takes hours and hours to transcribe these old scraps of paper and odd spellings, but the information is priceless. This gentleman lived in Jackson Twp, which is southwestern Shelby Co. Thanks to notes he held against some neighbors and the Sale Bill, we have quite a list of citizens living in the same area. The inventory will give you some idea of his physical surroundings and daily lifestyle. http://www.rootsweb.com/~inshelby/courthouse/estate_records/est_berryw.htm

One of the participants in the fracas at Kate Hoyt's "resort" was Joseph M Ballard (Sep 1965 - Feb 1909), son of Elijah M (obituary online) and Martha McBride, who was a builder and contractor in Shelbyville and never married. He also appears in the Arrest Journal a few months earlier, on 28 Oct 1905, but was found not guilty of "provoking". John

Sure sounds like it, doesn't it. Don't you love the way they used words sometimes to get the meaning across but not offend doing it. We could use some of that these days.

Shelbers, I'm passing this on to any of you that might be interested in attending. Melinda -------Original Message------- From: Meredith Thompson Date: 05/30/05 10:53:32 To: mmweaver1864@sbcglobal.net Subject: Midwestern Roots genealogy conference Melinda, I thought you might want to pass this on to the Shelby County list (my apologies if you've already seen this). Meredith ========================================= Meredith Thompson mere@augustmoondesign.com alternate e-mail: mere_thom@runbox.com Indiana Genealogical Society Newsletter editor & website manager http://www.indgensoc.org ========================================= Midwestern Roots 2005: Family History and Genealogy Conference Indianapolis Some of the nations leading genealogy professionals will present at Midwestern Roots 2005: Family History and Genealogy Conference, August 18-20 in Indianapolis. Midwestern Roots, co-sponsored by the Indiana Historical Society and the Indiana Genealogical Society, will feature over 30 presentations covering topics ranging from finding female ancestors, census substitutes, family food traditions and German SS records to baptismal records, preserving family papers, genetics and more. Optional pre-conference activities on Thursday, August 18, range from tours of the William Henry Smith Memorial Library, the Indiana State Library and the Indiana State Archives to writing workshops on preparing family histories for publication, computer labs on genealogy resources available on the internet and a workshop designed for library staff and volunteers who answer questions from genealogy patrons. The Genealogy Division of the Indiana State Library and the Indiana History Center Smith Library also will stay open late for extended research hours. Other activities include a lively panel discussion bringing together genealogists and historians to answer the question, History and Genealogy: Why Not Both? The evening will begin with a dessert reception at the Indiana History Center followed by a discussion with nationally-renowned historical genealogists Elizabeth Shown Mills and Curt B. Witcher, Indiana historian James H. Madison and migration historian Marianne S. Wokeck, who will explore how these fields can enrich each other, from uncovering the slightest detail of one life to seeing human history more clearly because of that life. On Friday, August 19, the conference will begin with the opening session by Mills. Mills will explain the standards and processes all researchers need to apply when using family history and genealogical sources. Friday will conclude with a banquet and Mills will give a presentation that encourages taking what is learned about ancestors and conveying it to descendants. On Saturday morning, Madison will begin the day by considering the various migration streams that settled the Midwest and show how their origins, timing and cultural features helped make the region a distinctive part of the nation. Other notable national speakers include genealogists John S. Humphrey, Diane Gagel, Elizabeth Kelley Kerstens, Tony Burroughs and Kandie Adkinson. The Indiana Historical Society and the Indiana Genealogical Society will offer six scholarships for individuals to attend the conference.
