I am searching for a Burch (Birch) Reed. ON the 1820 Census he
was in Sullivan County. By the time he passed away in 1849 he
was living in Vermillion County. According to his will he had
a wife called Sebre (?) or Sebrey. He also mentioned a grandson
William Sanders Reed. The will was made in August of 1844.
It was proved 10 October 1849. I am trying to find out if he
maybe related to my Jacob Reed in Rush County, Indiana. Jacob's
grand daughter Elizabeth named her oldest son Burch Clark. I am
trying to see if they could be tied in. Jacob was born in South
Carolina. Can anyone please help me?! Many thanks. Stacy

Hi, I'm trying to search for my Elizabeth Scranton b. 1839/40 in IN from
her 1880 Obit in SF, CA. I have not had very good luck so far finding
her because of so many different States listed for birth place, can't get
death record because of SF Quake/Fire 1906 which also took along most of
her childrenšs records. From what I have I'm searching IN right now. I
have not found an Elizabeth Scranton b. 1839/40 yet in IN, but I did find
an Elizabeth b. 1836 to Almond and Rachel Scranton who were married in
Dearborn Co. 1832. (they have another daughter Melyssa Scranton also) I
would like to check this out just in case. I know this man worked as a
Tailor in Rising Sun, this was listed in a book. My Elizabeth Scranton
goes on to marry John L. McLaughlin b. 1832-37 in Ireland came over as a
baby. (Don't know parents) John & Elizabeth marry around 1855-60.
They have there first girl in MO 1860/61- Mary Matilda and then Emma
1863. They then all go to SF, CA by 1868 where they live until they die.
Elizabeth does have several more children and dies, two months after
giving birth April 1880. I can't find her buried yet in SF. I am looking
for any info on the SCRANTON Families somebody must know these families.
Any info is helpful!!
Please E-mail to Mankcat.aol for now
Thanks
PS- I would like any proof that this Elizabeth is either her or not her,
marriage or if this girl is buried with her parents where?

I am trying to find some information on my husbands greatgrand-father who
moved to Indiana from Bowling Green, Kentucky during the time around the
cival war.
They owned a merchantile store in Bowling Green, and were apparently well
off financially. They were burned out by the Morgan Raiders, who were
apparently cousins.
They left there, and went to Indiana, where at least one of their ten
children was born. The fathers name was William J. Morgan married to an
Elizabeth???
They had 10 children, 5 boys, 5 girls. We know at least James M. Morgan
was born in Indiana. I am sorry but I do not know where. He was born in
1870. His father's name was
William J. Morgan.
Some of the other children that we know the names of are;
Ben
John
Anna and a twin sister who we do not know name of
Dan
James
Jane
Mary
It is thought that James was the youngest of the 10 children.
It is also thought that there is Indian blood in them.
ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
