Message Board Post:
I am trying to track down Mary Fletcher, b. abt 1832 in Indianna & David Cary, b.
about 1832 in Ohio. They married in Indiana in 1851. Most trees on Ancestry (and a
document from the Deleware County, Indiana Genealogist and Historian") have this
couple mixed up with another couple in the same area of Indiana. My David above died in
1869 (after civil war) and Mary Fletcher Cary went on the marry again to a Pendleton.
This David Cary is NOT the son of Ephraim Cary and Abigail Watson. Most info on Ancestry
also wrongly indicates that Mary Fletcher was the first wife of David Watson Cary (who was
the son of Ephraim and Abigail). These are actually two different couples. Does anyone
have any leads for me on who might be the parents of my David Cary? I am fairly certain he
is related to the Ephraim and Abigail but not their son. Lots of the Carys in this line
left Ohio for Indiana and all settled near each other. I do find a James Cary with a son
David n the 1850 census in P!
erry, Indiana. These Carys were in and around Delware, Randolph and surrounding
counties.
My David married in 1851 to Mary Fletcher. Mary does not die until 1920.
ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!
