In Hart Township was James Armstrong age 20 and America age 18 both born in NC. In Ohio Township was the household of Bolden Palmer 66 VA, Marian Palmer 12 IN, James Campbell 20 IN and Almira Campbell 18 IN. None of these people appeared in a book of 1860 census rolls. There was no will listed for a Palmer or Campbell in a book of Warrick Co. wills for 1831-1859.

I wrote to the Warrick Co courthouse and asked for guardianship papers for Henry Philips, born 1826, orphan of John Philips who died abt 1826-1833. I received this response. "TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Due to the lack of manpower and the time it take to research, we are sorry but we are unable to comply with your request. We regret any inconvenience this may cause you. Sincerely yours, Lisa A. Feldbusch Clerk, Warrick Circuit/Superior Courts" Is there someone who is available to research the archives? Thanks, Wanda

On Thursday the quiet city of Evansville was startled by the report that the body of Francis M Murphy who died on last Saturday the 14th and was buried on Sunday had been taken from the grave and was in the dissecting room of the Evansville Medical College.The manner in which the discovery was made is told by Evansville Journal.

For the person who ask abt the Indian Tribes in Early Warrick Co. I LOST YOU EMAIL ADDIE.. I found a article that states in early times and until abt 1815 the Shawnee Indian Tribe settled in Warrick Co . They set up Indian Camps near what is now Boonville,Newburgh and Yankeetown all near the Ohio River. They in 1815 or abt then a group of shawnee killed a peaceful white man named Athe Meeks. This apparently outrage many Warrick Co Residents who formed what we would now call a posse led by Ratliff Boon and Mr Bailey Anderson. The Indians led by Chief Settledown packed the women and children and tried to flee the county leaving behind cattle and horses by way of White River. Its is stated that few lived to cross the river because the women and children had slowed them down in comparison to the well sped and well mounted soldiers organized by Boon and Anderson. One other note the Shawnee settled in Warrick 's neighbor county of Vanderburgh . There was an a large settlement near Shawneetown just west of the Vanderburgh Co line near the White River in Ill. This is abt all I did find in relation to settled tribes in Warrick County. There may have been other tribes . I am not an expert on this kinda of thing so I hope it helps you.
