Hello, I have gotten several responses to my query about politicians, and mostly questions, Perhaps I should clarify my request. I recently had a family member send me some information on a soldier from the 49th Indiana, and they thought that this soldier may have become a politician in the Indianapolis area post-bellum, and I'm trying to find out. His name is Lt. Colonel Arthur J. Hawhe.

Hello, Benjamin and Charles HAYDEN are buried at St. Theresa Catholic Church in Meade Co. KY. Benjamin died 8/15/1841 and Charles died 8/14/1838. I am looking for any information about the spouses, children, and parents of these two men. Thanks Paul Hayden McKinney, TX

Just want to reinforce what Mickey posted regarding the use of city directories. I have several, and our local library has a number of them. They are most useful in helping people with their genealogy in this area. They were a great help when I was trying to locate someone who lived in this area a number of years ago, for an Army reunion group. I was able to contact neighbors shown in the directory, and they were able to direct me as to where the family might have moved. Mission successful.

Here is a very good source of information. It is city directories. So many people overlook the valuable source. You could evan find some of your elusive ancestors, here. Mother found the name of her grandfather on her mother's side. she looked up her grandmother and foun Wife of the man's name. I've been to the library and was waiting for an attendant to help me and heard her tell some one information, that could only be found in the directory. VERY good, interesting and accurate place to find info. Most libraries have them and they go back a few years. some older than others. these are done every year (locally) and it is required to tell them the info they seek to print one. Happy Hunting! Mickey

For all interested I have an 1860 list of ward boundries for Louisville. Probably taken from a city directory (back in the days when I didnt document so well) I also have two maps. (sorry no scanner) Hope this helps. Pam Kirkland 1st Ward: All of the city lying East of Hancock St. to city limits and from River South to city limits. 2nd Ward: All that part of the city between Hancock and Floyd Streets from River South to city limits. 3rd Ward: All of the city between Floyd and First Streets from River South to city limits. 4th Ward: All of the city between First and Third Streets from River South to city limits. 5th Ward: All of the city between Third and Fifth Streets from River South to city limits. 6th Ward: All of the city between Fifth and Seventh Streets from River South to city limits. 7th Ward: All of the city between Seventh and Tenth Streets from River South to city limits. 8th Ward: All of the city lying West of Tenth Street from River South to city limits. The lines go straight up to the edge of the river.

I have several families I'm researching that lived in Louisville, KY during 1860, etc. Unfortunately, I have no idea what ward/district of Louisville they were in and the city census is two full microfilm rolls! The FHC I was at didn't know of any index for this census. If I can come up with an address in Louisville, is there a map of the census districts to make my search easier? If you know of a surname index for Louisville, please let me know! Thanks for any research help! Nancy Prouty

I have been off the list for awhile. Still looking for Louisville connections: Michael SCHMITT married Rosalie VETTER in Louisville in 1848. Michael was listed by the name SMITH in census records and city directories. I can't seem to locate his parents and his naturalization seems to be in a book that is missing. Does anyone have a connection or an idea? Thanks, Mary

I have in my possession, five typed pages, plus footnotes, from a book that I am searching . Title and author unknown, but I believe it was written before the 1950's. The portion that I have is titled The Sons of Silas and Rebecca Peck Smith. The oldest son was Jonas Gray SMITH I (known as Uncle Jote). Jonas was named for his paternal g-grandfather, Jonas GRAY whose wife Hannah SWANK was d/o Revolutionary John SWANK. ...............William Gray m Ann Marlow ...........................William M GRAY b 1837 m 1861 Louisia B MILLER ......................................Mary A(Mollie) GRAY m 1883 Jonas Gray ........................................SMITH ......................................William B GRAY m 1885 Philena CRAIG ......................................Sally GRAY m Doc SMITH ......................................James GRAY 1867-1943 ......................................Iva Ellen GRAY m Jonas Gray SMITH ......................................Lella Alice GRAY b 1887 ......................................Curtis C GRAY b 1873 ......................................Jonas GRAY b 1875 ......................................Frank GRAY b 1878 Footnote 1, "see chapter 2 for the history of the Gray family" If anyone knows the title and how I can find this source I will be very greatful. It also mentions Christopher MILLER and his decendants. This family was in Hardin co KY very early before coming to KS 1870-1880. Hope this is familiar to someone out there!
