Hi TJ,
I am also related to the Slacks. Connie and I have corresponded before. My
gg-grandmother was Temperance Slack, and I believe a sister to Abner. She
married Lorenzo Gilbert. Do you happen to have any information on her?
Also, who do you show as Abner's parents? I used to think the parents of
Abner and Temperance were John and Elizabeth Wright, but records indicate
they were married in 1825. I show Abner b. about 1814 and Temperance abt.
1820. Anything you can add to this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Pat in IN

Connie,
I am related to the Slack family through Carl Slack, son of William Slack
and Eliza (?) Unknown, son of Abner Slack and Mary Unknown.
Carl's two sons are still living, one of them being my grandfather, who
lives in the Brazil area.
Do you have a birth date for Zilpa Elizabeth Slack? I only have about
1841
for a birth date from the 1850 census.
Also I only have the four children listed in that census. Those being:
Elizabeth, Roxy, William and Benjamin. Do you know if there were others?
Slack's did own and operate a funeral home in Clay County. It was called
the Lawson-Slack Funeral home and located at 354 E National Ave Brazil
Indiana 47834. They sold it several years ago and the building is now run
by other people.
Happy Hunting at the Genealogy Library. The people there are really nice.
TJ
