Hello Debby,
I'm looking for Benjamin Griffith who may have died in or near White Cliff.
Is it possible to find a date of death in 1906/07 I hear they are rather
sparse.
Below you'll find info on him and his wife, Emily.
Benjamin Griffith was 35 when he and Emily B. Olinger were marr. 25 May 1894;
Cass Co. IN Marr. Rec. Bk 14, p.84
Ben may have been married twice and may also have children from an earlier
marr.
1900 Logansport, IN Eel twp., Cass Co. ED 14-2-55 res., 1416 Toledo.
Benjamin Griffith b. Feb. 1859, age 41 b. IN, farmer, marr. 7 yrs. w/Emily B.
b. Oct. 1860, IN; Ben is out of work 6 of the last 10 mos.
Benjamin is mentioned in the 13 May 1904 Miami Co. IN on his father's Land
Sale. He was in Logansport City Directory for 1905-06, it took up to 18 months
to update and publish the new directories.
Benjamin was also mentioned in court rec. 15 Jun. 1907.
Logansport City Dir. 1901-02; Benjamin Griffith W/Emily; teamster, 1416
Toledo St. Logansport
" " " 1905-06 Benjamin, teamster, bds, 815 21st
st., Emily was not mentioned.
Emily may have died. I have never been able to locate where either of them
were buried.
Thank you very much for your time and help!
