I am still thanking Sharon Roberts in my mind for posting that entry from the book the
History of Fountain Co. I did not know such a book existed as it had not turned up in any
of my general searches for such stuff online. I am wondering if it would also solve the
myster of what Happened to my great-grandmother Ella Toliver Holliday. Ella Toliver was
her maiden name she married Ambrose S. Holliday Jr. on Dec. 26, 1876 in Parke co. Indiana,
but by the 1880 census they were living in Fountain co. She supposedly died in March or
just after in about 1883 from childbirth. I have no idea who her parents are, but Tolivers
seem to have been in Indiana a long time. Does anyone know if there are entries in the
Fountain Co. History book that mention an Ella Toliver who married and became a Holliday.
I have probate records from Fountain co. on one Toliver family, but the names are all
wrong. I would like to find out more about Ella. Thanks anyone who knows....
