One of the closest records I've run across is the 1880 Census which lists a
"Mariah L. Phipps, age 58, living with her daughter Malinda, who is 14 yrs old - that
would make Malinda being born in 1866. this record is of the Brown, Washington Indiana
area.
This records makes me start wondering if possibly Mariah's husband, ????, was killed
in the Civil War? Or, another possibility is that Malinda Jane Phipps was born outside of
wedlock (and on her birth cert "Tal" was just supplied to fill in the space -
without benefit of wedlock????
I am grasping at straws here ....
