Hi Shirley, nice to 'see you'.
Well this is a quandry. I have a John A. Cunningham b. Aug 1861 in Daviess Co., IN, son
of Michael and Julianna. I did have John Bryan, 1848, but all other family recs had John
A. born abt 1861. I wonder if John B. died and they named a subsequent son John A.?
That's why I was asking who these folks had as parents, to hopefully cement this. Per
the 1870 Barr Twp. census for Michael& Julianna's family, "John" is
listed as 8 years old, so can't be John Byron.
This baptism record is certainly my family. That must be William Grannon sponsor. These
two families connect 2 more generations down :)
John b. Aug 1861 IN and Anna M. are in Barr Twp. East half, 1900 census with children
Ethel A. Larence J., Herman A., Ray M., Anna A., Mary B., Eula M., and Alice.

You can see the actual record here.
Here they are in 1910
http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=recordimage&c...
Can't see the actual record, but a search notes children. Not sure this will show the
children, Ethel A., Lawrence J., Herman A., Ray M., Anna A., Mary B., Eula M. and Alice.
John b. abt 1862 IN married to Annie M. Cunningham appear Daviess IN 1920 with children
Ray, Alice, Louis, and Maud(e)
I have several of these children's marriage records too that show Anna Mary Livers as
their mother.
> From the 1900 census Mary was b. Jun 1862 Indiana.
John's siblings, the other children of Michael and Julianna are:
Mary E. b. 1844 married Owen Cavanaugh (?sp)
Patrick Joseph 1849-1920 married Kate Kidwell, Catherine Madden and Laura Ann Padgett
My great-grandfather Andrew James 1853-1924 married Mary Adeline Padgett
Elizabeth A. 1855-1933 married Thomas Addison Seal
Louis F. 1857-1902 married Maude M. Parks and Mary Alice Brown
Michael b. 1859 married Margaret Kennedy
Francis (Frank) J. 1866-1921 married Frances Hopkins and Catherine Effa Smith
and Joseph F. 1866-1921 who married Laura ___? I am guessing this is the correct Joseph
who appears in Norman Twp., Steele ND 1900 and returns to Washington, Daviess by 1910.
This makes sense to me as my Andrew's family homesteaded in South Dakota when the
territory opened up and remained in SD.
