Hello Everyone,
My lines in Greene Co. are: Watson, Holtsclaw,
Harden/Hardin, Carmichael, Goad, Jordan, Payne,
Workman, Heaton, Bingham, Bays & Shields.
I know almost nothing about the Shields, Payne,
Harden and Jordan lines, but would like to find
more.
My husband's lines in Greene Co. are: Martindale,
Marsh, Vaughn, Royal and Wright (came from Putnam
Co., IN sometime after 1880).
While I've got everyone's undivided attention, I
thought I'd pass along a bit of news. For those
researchers with family buried in Tulip cemetery,
there will soon be a new book out focusing on
the church and cemetery. Greene Co.'s very
own genealogical/historical icon, Millie Uland, is finishing
up a book on Tulip which will include folklore, history
and info from the cemetery plat map. She says
that she's not sure when it will be completed, but
she is putting the finishing touches on it. The
format will be much the same as her previous
book on the Walnut Grove/Mood Cemetery
area.
Just thought I'd pass that along to you all and
I'll let you know when it's available.

My great grandfather Andrew Jackson Newgent retired to Greene Co after a life as
a minister in the United Brethern Church about 1900 or so, he had married a 2nd
wife named Annie Crowthers from Terre Haute. I believe he had a second family of
3 boys and 2 girls. I heard that one of his daughters married Alois Metler and
their Daughter married a Trammel. I would appreciate any info about any members
of the family or any info about them, if any members are still around I would be
overjoyed to get in contact with them.
Thank you

Can anybody find out anymore about this? From court records or
newspapers of the era? I believe it was around 1827. I'm posting this to
the Greene County and Indiana lists just in case. This can also be
copied over into the "Biographies" section for Greene County.
FIRST INDICTMENT FOR MURDER.
.At this term the first indictment for murder in the county was found.
Andrew Ferguson and Julius Dugger were charged with the murder of Isaac
Edwards. The murder was charged to have been done with an ax.
.Elkins Smith,the Prosecuting Attorney, assisted by Addison Smith and
Isaac Naylor, prosecuted the case. These assisting attorneys were
employed by the county to prosecute. The defendants were defended by
Craven P. Hester and John Law. The defendants demanded separate trials,
and Ferguson was tried at that term and acquitted. The case was
continued as to Dugger. Before the first trial, the defendants were
sent
to Bloomington, Ind., for safe keeping, and after Ferguson was
acquitted,
Dugger was sent to Spencer for safe keeping.
.The trial created great excitement among the people throughout the
county. The original jury was challenged entirely, after which
forty-eight others were brought in, and with these they could not
impanel
a jury. Twenty-five others were brought into court, making, in all
eighty-five. From this number they selected a jury composed of Moses
Ritter, John Burch, George Burch, Simon Snyder, John Uland, Joel Benham,
Daniel Ingersoll, George Padgett, Joseph Mise, Alexander Craig,, John
Breece and John Moore.
.The case was ably prosecuted and as ably defended. The jury found the
defendant guilty of manslaughter, and he was sentenced to the State
prison for four years.
