From: "Rasmussen, Craig" fourrasmussen@netzero.net I am looking for information on Caleb Sanders and his first wife, Dorothy (Delano) Sanders. The Sanders were originally from Vermont and moved to Shelby County, IN sometime in the early 1830s. Dorothy Sanders reportedly died in Shelby County (possibly in Jackson) on September 11 1843, but I have no information on where she is buried or where her death date came from. Some people say she died in Marietta, but I can't find Marietta in Shelby County. In the census, they are listed as living in Jackson, like Dorothy Sanders' father and brother (Hibbard Delano Sr. & Jr.). Any information on Caleb or Dorothy Sanders would be greatly appreciated. After Dorothy died, Caleb reportedly married Sarah J. Atwood (possibly there in Shelby County) but I have no record of when or where. I am most interested in finding out with documentation, when Dorothy Sanders died and where she is buried. Any help would be wonderful. Thanks in advance. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Internal Virus Database is out-of-date. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

Dear Craig, In 1830, Caleb Sanders is listed in the Vermont, Franklin County, Richford Twp. Census. In the 1840 Census for Shelby County, Jackson Township, Indiana there are listings for both Hubbard Deleno Jr. and Caleb Sanders. They are sprinkled among my relatives who are almost all buried in Patterson Cemetery in Jackson Twp. Marietta is in Hendricks Twp. near the border of Jackson Twp. and wasn't platted until the early 1850s. The other people listed near yours lived just south of what would become Marietta south to Mt. Auburn or "Black Hawk" and east to within a mile from Lewis Creek Village which is in Washington Twp. Besides Patterson Cemetery in 1843, other possible burial sites would include Conover Cem. and Mt. Auburn Cem. Many people who lived in and around Marietta were buried in Second Mt. Pleasant Cem. just across the Shelby Co. border on Sugar Creek in Johnson Co. Needham Twp. Later, most residents of Marietta were buried at Miller Cem. in Hendricks Twp. I'm not sure when the first burial was at Miller. Caleb Saunders married Sarah Jane Atwood 02 March 1843 in Johnson County, IN. Your death date for Dorothy Delano Sanders is after this, so it may not be right unless Caleb divorced her. With all the spellings above, I've spelled them just like the sources. Note: My link to the Delano family is by the marriage of William W. GOFF to Sophiah DELANO 23 May 1837 in Shelby Co. IN.
