    1. [NESALINE] Waldron Drew - Rachael Coates Brown
    2. Mary Louise Townsend
    3. Greetings from Virginia! I've just subscribed to the list and am looking for information on a relative who has been very elusive. I would appreciate any help on this family or advise on sources. Are there death certificates or probate records available for 1893 in Saline Co.? Are there any newspaper obituaries available for this time period? Looking for family of Waldren Drew and his daughter Rachael Coates Brown. Waldron Drew, according to Dorchester Cemetery records online, was born 25 Jan 1819 and died 14 August 1893. He was born in Miami Co., Ohio, eldest child of Abraham W. Drew and Mary Voorhis. His father, Abraham Drew died in 1822 in Miami Co., OH and the family moved to Warren Co., Ohio.. He had two sisters, Margaret Drew (wife of John Clendenin) and Martha Drew (wife of Robert Batcheler). >From the 1850 Clinton Co., IN census, I found that Rachael was born about 1841. By 1860 the family was in Wisconsin and lastly, I found them in Saline Co., NE. I don't know the name of Rachael's husband. Other children of Waldron Drew are Jacob, Mary, Sarah, John and William Henry. Waldron Drew married at least 2 times. First to Sarah Statler 11 May 1840 in Clinton Co., IN and second to Mazy Ann Blake from Dorchester, Saline Co., NE. Sarah Statler Drew died in Wisconsin on 1 May 1855. Would love to find any descendents. Best regards to all, Mary Louise Townsend Potomac Falls, VA
