Good Morning everyone!!
I am researching a family line that has had me banging my head against a
brick wall for more than 15 years now!! PLEASE READ this message. ANY help
and/or leads GREATLY appreciated!
I am looking for RADEBAUGH/RADABAUGH/RODABOUGH/RADENBACH etc. "cousins". This
family lived in Blackford County for at least 20 years and it looks like
maybe more like 40 years!! I figure someone must've seen it while doing their
own research. Maybe you only remember seeing the surname somewhere in a book
-- PLEASE let me know! Anything might break down this wall!!
My ancestor, Lewis (aka Louis and W. Louis) Radebaugh (with all variations of
spelling) lived near Montpelier and raised his children there. He was born
ca1818, and supposedly in NY (no proof of this yet). I will list the children
as I sure think SOMEONE must be descended from them!! They are as follows:
Mahala Radebaugh, born 1847 in IN (Prob. Blackford County)
Noah Radebaugh, born 1848 in IN
John Radebaugh, born 1853 in IN
Malica Radebaugh, born 1855 in IN
George Washington Radebaugh (my direct line), born 1857 in Blackford Co., IN
Rachael M. Radebaugh, born 1860 in IN
and James P. Radebaugh, born 1863 in IN
Surely someone has seen one of these names??! If someone has a Blackford
County, IN marriage record book, I would sure appreciate a look-up for any of
those children or Lewis himself (married ca 1846)!!
Again, PLEASE email me if you have any leads or a direction I should take
with this family. I am Sooooooo frustrated!!
THANK YOU!!!
