Hello List,
I am looking for information on Peter Gabbert who was born 1838 in KY
and moved to Pike Co., IN with a large family (was there in 1880). His
wife was Melissa Frances Russell, who married a man named Bratton after
Peter died abt 1897. She died in Mt. Carmel, IL.
Peter is supposed to be buried at a cemetery at Owensvile. I sure would
appreciate it if someone had the information from his tombstone and
would send it to me.
Peter and Melissa had several children who lived in Gibson Co. around
Princeton - they included George William Gabbert, Thomas Gabbert, Stella
Gabbert, Henry Gabbert, Catherine (Caty) Gabbert who married a Joe
Belcher and then Sam Hatfield, and James C. Gabbert who married Mary
Youngman, daughter of John Youngman and Harriet Kelley.
The Youngmans lived in Gibson Co., and also next door in Knox County. I
believe that John was the son of James Youngman and Rebecca Stout.
I would be so grateful for any information on any of these people.
Thank you.
Doris Tartt
