Am researching TALBERT (Rebecca),TYLER (James W and Joseph,) BURNS (James B and
Anthony),PENNINGTON (Aaron and his wife Margaret BURNS,) WELKER (Adam b c 1835) and
LOCKRIDGE?LOTRIDGE?LOTHERAGE --any name that sounds like LOKRIG. I am searching
specifically for information on Levi LOTRIDGE/LOTHERAGE/LOCKRIDGE, etc. At 21, he was in
the 1850 census for Grant Co in the household of an Isaac LAUridge, age 96 (but that is
questionable,) who might be his father Isaac or his grandfather--or not closely related at
all? Family lore says Levi's father was named Isaac... Also in the household was 15
year old Adam who has since been identified as Adam WELKER, the son of Levi's sister
Mary (Mrs. William WELKER.) Before 1850 I know nothing of Levi except that he was born
c 1829 in Ohio someplace.and his father is probably Isaac L. The 1850 census did not
indicate relationships in the LAUridge household. There was also a woman named Susanna,
age 38. No surnames were given other than Isaac's, either. In 1851,Levi married as
Levi LOTHERAGE to Harriet BURNS, daughter of James B and Rebecca (TALBERT )BURNS and
sister of Margaret (BURNS)PENNINGTON. Married in Sims Twp, Grant Co, IN.
