ALLEN
I would like any information on Alexander ALLEN (1778-1857), Robert ALLAN (1781-1850) or Agnes ALLEN (1784-1853), all children of John ALLAN of Campbelltown, Argyllshire, Scotland. They settled in Jefferson and Switzerland Co., IN between 1820 and 1830. Alexander, his wife, Elizabeth ANDREWS (1778-1863), Agnes ALLEN and her husband, Daniel MILLER (1788-1868) were members of Pleasant Presbyterian Church. Robert ALLAN married Agnes "Nancy" WITHERSPOON on 1-Jul-1828.
BAKER / DANNER/ WALTZ
I am researching the BAKER, DANNER and WALTZ surnames. William Henry Baker
and Permelia Danner moved from Shenandoah Co. VA. to Jefferson Co. IN.
sometime before 1853. Joseph Melvin Baker son of William Henry was born in
or close to Madison, IN on 7/12/1853. He married Mary Ann Waltz also born in or near Madison, IN on 4/19/1855. They were married on 2/26/1880 I believe in or near Madison, IN but not sure of this. I would certainly appreciate any information on these surnames as they were associated with Jefferson Co. In. Thanks so much for your help.

WHITSITT / WHITSIDE
William Whitsitt (Whitside) and Martha Woodard Whitsitt came into Graham
Township, Jefferson County in 1813. They were charter members of Pisgah
Church near Deputy. The operated a mill on "Big Creek" that was later
called Hartwell Mill. Since one of Ephriam Hartwells daughters, Evaline
was later to marry George Landon, and there daughter Minerva Landon
married William Whitsitts grandson Henry Clay, the family seems to be
tied to the Pisgah area. Surnames of interest are Woodard, Evans, Tull,
Hartwell, Landon, Whitsitt, and Pheral. I have considerable data on the
family in Jefferson County but seek contact with others who are
interested in sharing.
My ancestors were among the first settlers to come to the area where Jennings, Jefferson and Scott counties meet. William WHITSITT came to the Pisgah Church area near Deputy in 1813 along with his wife Martha WOODARD. William operated a mill which was later to become HARTWELL mill. William and Martha Woodard Whitsitt were charter members of Pisgah Church in 1818. Later Ephriam HARTWELL's daughter, Evaline would marry George(son of William) LANDON, and their daughter, Minerva Selestine LANDON, would marry my Great Grandfather Henry Clay WHITSITT. William Whitsitt's brother, Samuel Varner WHITSITT II, lived across the county line from William in Jennings County. I have information on these families in SE Indiana but seek contact with other descendents to share with. I am also interested in the surnames...TULL, EVANS, PHERAL and CARR.
