Carma,
Well I can give you one or two answers. My husband is the Brubaker
he comes from Hans Jacob b abt 1690. Bill's father was Ralph and his father
John they lived in Warren,IN Huntington Co. I have very little on the Love
family. My Great Grandmother was Ella (Norah Ella) Love she was b in 1858 in
Delaware Co In and married in Del. Co but lived and died in Wells Co.IN I
have not been able to prove her parents. In 1860 census for White Co IN
there is a family of David and Anna Love with two children Ella age 2 and
Edmon age 4. In 1870 census Ella and two sibs are with another family called
Garrard back in Delaware Co. Ella age 12, Josephine age 9, and Milo H age 4.
(no Edmon or David or Anna) Ella married in 1891 and had 5 children . She
died in 1898 at childbirth. In 1893/4 she purchased land in Wells Co with
$400. I have no clue how she had $400. Well anyway after her death the
children were"farmed out" and her husband disappears for a time then shows
back up and enters the children's lives before he dies. There's lots more to
this story I won't bother with now. I know that Ella's sister
Josey(Josephine I think) lived in Wells Co also. She cared for one of the
children for a while. Do you have anyone named Ella in your James and
Lydia's line and would the age fit?
I don't know about the Julia Brubaker do you have dates?

Connie,
I have 2 questions for you.
How are you related to the BRUBAKER family? My grandmother was Julia Ann
BRUBAKER m. Ira Francis TINKEL. They lived in Wabash Co. IN. They also lived
in Grant Co. and were connected to the LOVE family there. My grandfather's
Aunt Lydia was married to a James LOVE. Do you have information on that
family? I do not have information on James side but have his and Lydia's
children, etc.
