I am looking for information on John W. Williams (my grandfather) who married Ella Russell In Tipton, Indiana (Tipton County) on 15 July 1883. I believe he was born in 1862 in Boone County, Indiana. His parents I believe may have been William and Martha Carpenter Williams. In 1930 he and Ella, daughter Cora Edith (my mother) and son Herschell lived at 1620 south A Street in Elwood, Indiana From sometime after 1900 until early 1927 John, who had abandoned his family, was places unknown. He was found in Ohio in 1927 and was returned to Elwood and his family. He passed away on June 27, 1927. He is allegedly buried in the Elwood Cemetery. I can't find my grandmother Ella Russell Williams. She was last known (1941) to be living in Anderson, Indiana with her son Herschell Williams. Herschell eventually lived in Middletown (Henry County, Indiana) and passed away 29 July 1962. Does any of this info reflect any part of your research of the Williams family?
