Beryl, Re: the Ribelins connected with the Boling/Barnett lines of Washington Co IN: I have the draft registration card (from Ancestry) for Fred Ribelin, who shows he was b. in Salem 1893. I am assuming he is a son of Mary Elma Barnett & Wm. Franklin Ribelin, though might not be. I would suggest checking around the Shattuck OK area for other Ribelin families.
