Tamara,
I lived most of my early life in Greenville. I would be interested if there were any Goss or Burrell enlistees.
Is anyone researching the Quincey family that was in LaFayette Township,
Floyd County in the 1830s-1850s?
I believe the parents' of Peter Quincey were Michael and Catherine, both born
abt. 1782 in France.
I'm hoping to connect with someone else researching them.
Thank you,
Sandi

My ggggrandfather, Geoarge Washington Carter, came to New Albany in 1819/1820, probably from Virginia or Ohio. Is there anyone that can lookup either in census, court or any local records to find any mention of this man, his family, his siblings? I understand he had a sizable amount of land. Maybe there are court records that verify this fact. Any help would be appreciated and I will pay any reproduction costs.
Dan,
There is information on the Black Hawk War on the internet. You might try
using one of the popular search engines like Webcrawler, Yahoo, or google to
do a search. Also look for "Benjamin Harrison".
My research indicates that Daniel BECK married Elizabeth SUMMERS on Dec. 9,
1799 in Augusta Co., VA. Elizabeth's parents were John (Johannes) and
Elizabeth (REIDENAUER) SOMMERS. Elizabeth's brother Jacob SUMMERS was my
g-g-g-gfather, who came to Floyd Co. from VA in 1818 and settled in the
Georgetown/Greenville area. I have not done any real research on Daniel and
Elizabeth, so I do not know if they also migrated to Indiana. Nor do I know
when or where they died or who their children were. But if you need more
information on the SOMMERS/SUMMERS family, let me know.

I'm just curious; what's the Black Hawk War?
My gg grandfather was orphaned in the 1830's (G.W. Beck), at least
according to his brother's bio published in Baird's History of Clark
County and I'm trying to figure out what could have happened to his
father (Daniel) and mother. GW lived and died in NA.
Thanks

Is there any records of the volunteers that were from Clark Co. IN?
My gg grandfather Riley KELLER was one of the Mounted Rangers.
Riley was born 29 December 1811 TN.
Looking for a list of all that volunteered as that may have other members of his family. I do have his military records and there were over 100 that volunteered in Clark Co. IN.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you,

There is a picture of St. Mary's at the below link. Can anyone tell me when
this particular church was built? Also, does anyone know of any earlier
pictures of St. Mary's? I would like to have a picture (or drawing) of the
church as it was in 1834 & 1835. Also, does anyone know how long a trip it
would have been from Floyds Knobs to Louisville, KY in the 1830s? Thank
you very much for any help. Sandi
