James and Nancy were living in Wabash Township here in Fountain County in 1850. Also
living there in 1860 with a daughter named Lucretia (born abt. 1850) and a son named John
(born abt. 1854. In 1870, the family was living in Vermillion County, Indiana in Highland
Township with John who was then 15 and a son, Robert E. who was 9. The 1880 census shows
James has remarried to a woman named Margaret. Robert E. is 19 and there is a daughter
named Biddy (?) who is 2 years old. The 1900 census shows just James and Margaret living
in the household and still in Vermillion Co., Highland Township. I have the cemetery
listings for Vermillion County, but I am not finding James in the Highland Township
cemeteries. I looked in Fulton and Wabash Townships in Fountain County, and he isn't
showing up in any of those either. I might have to look in neighboring townships in
Vermillion County.
