Hi,
I'm looking for anyone who might be able to shed some light on MARY ANN
BALDWIN....b. 1 Oct 1854.....
She is known to be raised by the family of GEORGE BALDWIN and EDNA ANN
MCGOWEN of Boone Co.IN....until the death of George while serving in the
Civil War...1863....afterwhich Edna remarried to SANFORD HINTON....in 1866
there were guardianship papers filed stating she was the heir of GEORGE
BALDWIN....giving guardianship to SANFORD HINTON.....MARY ANN doesn't show up
on the 1860 or 1870 Boone Co census with either family?? She married in
1871...to Wm.Jefferies in Mont. Co....
First question? WHO were her parents?? Was GEORGE BALDWIN??and if so WHO
was her Mother?? GEORGE was 1st married to an ELIZA ELLEN STOBAUGH in
Putnam Co. Dec. 1854.....could MARY ANN have been their daughter??......
Second question? Does anyone have any information on ELIZA ELLEN
STOBAUGH...did she and GEORGE divorce or did she possibly die and he married
EDNA ANN MCGOWEN Nov. 1856....Does anyone have any facts on this situation to
help me figure it all out??
MARY ANN's obit states she is survived by 2 brothers....JOHN & JAMES
BALDWIN.....proven sons of GEORGE AND EDNA ANN .....
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much,
N.J. :-)
