Hi Kathy, You are closer related to Lynn's line of the family. I'll send you her address and phone number. Her line: John & Elizabeth (Sickles) (?) Roll John & 1st wife, Rachel (Van Winkle) Roll Matthias & Mary (Rutan) Roll Matthias & 2nd wife, Lucy (Williams) Roll Oscar Boone & Josephine (Cochran) Roll Marion William & Bertha Olive (Farr) Roll Thelma Lynn Roll m. Melvin C. "Red" Kennedy. The 2 Matthias Roll's are buried at Roll, Indiana. I have this notation at the bottom of Matthias & Mary (Rutan) Roll, page. Matthias Roll settled the little town of Roll, Indiana in Blackford Co., on SR. 18. Since there were a few oil wells in the area of Dundee, the little town was rather prosperous. Matthias rode his horse to the near-by county seat, Hartford City, to pick up the mail and deliver it to the residents of the small town. When the mail became too heavy for one horse and rider, the government decided it was time to give Dundee a post office of it's own. However, there was already a Dundee in Indiana, so the name of the town was changed to ROLL in honor of Matthias. On May 21, 1859, Matthias deeded land for the Roll School House (District # 2), Washington, Twp. He also deeded land to William S. Roll on September 30, 1856. Matthias and two other people gave land for the Church and Cemetery where he, Lucy and some of their children are buried. You might want to get in touch with Lynn. It looks like your parents and Lynn are 3rd cousins. Her address is: Mrs. T. Lynn (Roll) Kennedy 1835 Dean Street Huntington, Indiana - 46750 Phone (219) 356-6650 If you call her, Kathy, tell her that I gave you the phone number and address and give her my best. I've been thinking about her a lot lately and intented to call last weekend and I will try to this weekend. She will be thrilled if you write or call her. Have a good day, Martha
