Message Board Post:
Do you have the names of William Boling's siblings? Is he the same William Boling that
was born in Virginia about 1764 and married Mary who was born in North Carolina about the
same time. They appear on the US Census 1850 in Owen County, IN.
I found Noah, Olive, Pleasant, and Terry living with Samuel and Nancy Steed in the 1850 US
Census. Their last name was "Bowling." By 1860 they had all changed their names
to "Bolin." It is interesting to note that in 1853 when Shubal's marriage is
dissolved in Owen County, he has changed his last name to "Boling." He
didn't even show up for the case, Elizabeth was awarded support costs ($65).
Shubal had already left Owen County and headed west. He picked up Julia Ann in Root,
Adams, IN, but they did not get married until they were in Illinois, 1857. Julia was 13
when she had Margaret, who died in infancy. Jasper was born just across the state line in
Esdaile, WI.
I got an e-mail on just how Shubal died in the wagon accident. A wheel ran over his chest
and crushed his lungs. It took just 3 hours for him to die. More stories to pass along to
the younger generation.
Appreciate any help you can give me. The CD's from Owen County should arrive soon.
William's will is on the CD along with newspaper articles from the same era. I am
looking forward to getting the CD's.
Am also passing information to Pierce County Hearld. They pass me information, too.
Shubal's death certificate did not have the name of his father, Harbard. But, Isabelle
Johnson, daughter of Everett Valentine, said that Harbard was the name of Shubal's
father. She recently died, but what a source of information. There are copies of
marriages, births, divorces, and deaths that I am trying to get a copy of for our family
tree.
Thanks for all the help,
Gene Bolin
