Hello everyone, In the 1870 census of Logansport, Indiana my gggrandfather
is listed as a tollgate keeper.
Where did he work and what did he do? His name was George Lightner and he
is buried in the MT Hope
cemetery next to his wife Henrietta Orwig. Also buried in the Lightner
plot is his daughter Georgeanna who
died in 1933 and her husband a cCvil War veteran who died in 1885. He fell
off a ladder building a summer
kitchen. I found this information in the library in Logansport, Indiana.
Also buried there are two little girls,
Edith and Ada. I have pictures of the cemetery plot if anyone is
interested.
