>From Barb Huff: Sarah Ann House vs Samuel Hoover, 1845 http://www.shelbycountyindiana.org/courthouse/civil_records/civ_HouseS.htm Glenn Snider P

Thanks for providing this item from the court records. Is there anything further on this record? I am wondering if the Samuel Hoover in this court record is Samuel Hoover who married Eliza J. (Jennie) Sluss in Monroe County IN 25 Sep 1855? I believe I found the Samuel Hoover of this court case listed with his parents in the 1850 census in Shelby County, apparently unmarried. I know that the Samuel Hoover who married Jennie Sluss in 1855 was divorced from Jennie before 1880 after having one child, a son, Fred I. Hoover born in 1862. I have not been able to locate Samuel and Eliza J. (Jennie) Sluss Hoover in either the 1860 or 1870 census records. His name for the marriage record is listed as Samuel A. Hoover. Thanks for any information or suggestions anyone may have.

This is a little too early for any newspaper coverage in Shelby County. You could check the newspaper in Johnson County. The only good lead would be the male child born in Johnson County around 1845. I don't know if his last name was House or Hoover, but he would probably be on the census records in the household of Sarah Ann House, her parents or one of her siblings. Perhaps Sarah married before the 1850 census. But my aim would be to follow the male child and see if his death certificate lists his father's name. Following Samuel Hoover's "friends" might give some clues. Did Samuel Hoover's family live near the families of Robert Glenn or Hiram Snider? Shelby County does not have any major connections with Monroe County but maybe the Hoover family was from that area. Can you find the birth name of Samuel's mother? The roads between here and Monroe County still are not great and I am sure they were horrible in 1850. If Shelby County Samuel traveled to Monroe County, he had to have had a reason. What do you know about the Sluss family? Did they have Shelby County connections? The search would be fun, but I wouldn't count on finding an answer in this world. Do you want me to check for other Hoover court records? If so , what time period? I don't see any Hoover probate records. I don't see any burial for Samuel Hoover or Sarah House. What about Samuel's parents? Maybe their obituaries would say something about where their son Samuel was living.
