Hello Listers, My Quaker gr gr gr grandparents had 12 children in North Carolina. John Henby died Dec 1832 at 51 before birth of his last son William B (my gr gr) 18 May 1833, Perquimans. According to an 1888 History of Rush County, Indiana found in our local library, in 1835 William B came to Indiana with his mother Mary (Bagley? - it is Bogue in Walnut Ridge MM) Henby and "a large portion of her family." They supposedly stopped in the vicinity of Richmond, Ind. for about one year before locating in Rush County, Indiana. They were charter members of Walnut RIdge MM in 1836. I would like to (1) find the NC records of John & Mary's marriage; (2) birth records of the 12 children; info on their 1835 removal to Indiana (on certificate?); (3) Quaker records of this family in the Richmond area before they settled in Rush County. Any help is gratefully appreciated. Bonnie Lyons Anderson, IN
