I am looking for family connections to the Peter FAIR Family
Peter Fair was among the first familys to settle DeKalb Co. IN. He helped clear a road to
the
settlement in Butler Twp. along with his older sons, Henry, Abraham, and Charles. He was
the 1st Co.
Commissioner of DeKalb Co.
Peter was my GGG Grandfather, his grandson Charles came to KS after the Civil War and
Homesteaded
near Alma, KS. That home still stands and I live not too far from there.
I would love to locate information about and proof Peters first wife, and where she died.
Below is a
small outline.
