My ggg-grandmother, Polly Hamilton Baker Wilson, came to Washington Co. IN from Lincoln Co. NC in 1817. Soon after her death in 1905, her daughter, Susannah Baker Boss, decided to write down the stories her mother told about her life in NC, the trip to Indiana and their first months in the newly created state of Indiana. I have transcribed her notes on my webpage at http://home.swbell.net/kayarm/PollyHamilton.htm. Some of the surnames mentioned are Hamilton, Bridges, Hayden, Litton, Knotts, and Wyman. It gives a very good idea of what the everyday life of the pioneers was like. I'm know that many Washington Co. researchers can trace their roots to NC. I hope you enjoy the stories as much as I did.
