I have an obit that was sent to me it had no date, newspaper etc. attached to it it was transcribed it is as follows:
William W. White was born Oct. 3 1841 in Kentucky, and came to this state and county when a small boy old enough to drive a wagon and spent the remainder of his life not far from his old home where he lived 52 years. He offered his life for his country in the Civil War, enlisting in the year '61 serving 4 years 6 months 7 dyas. He was a faithful soldier, and well said by Capt. John D. Alexander, "He was one of our best soldiers, never weary in well doing. He was married to Rebecca C. McWhirther, March 22, 1867. He lived 51 years
at his old home place and one year at the McAffe place near here. To
this union 14 children, 6 boys and 8 girls. Namely Francis, Elizabeth, Charley, Noah, Joseph, Luther, Amanda, Dollie, Joel, Nancy, Julia, Lieu, Edith, Robert, and Martha. All lived to be grown. But God our father seen it well to call from this union three girls the Older girl Francis Elizabeth died Sept. 16th 1898, Julia died Oct. 15 1899, Edith died March 15th 1905. After these were chosen by God from this family circle (to a home not made with hands) the quiet hush of death came next to the father, Friday at 6:20, August 15, 1919. Having lived 78 year 10 months and 14 days. The sun went down behind the hill as the call came quietly at God's will, No more work, but a vacant chair. Mother's kind words left and Mother's prayer.

Clapton Jesse G - to - Elizabeth Arnold - Nov 29, 1868 - Bk. H, pg 261 - Greene Co., Indiana
Does anyone know anything about his Jesse Clapton and wife Elizabeth Arnold?
They are listed in the 1870 census in Lawrence Co., IN:
1870 Lawrence Co., IN census, Spice Valley twp., pg. 8/529

William Bryan Strauser married Elsie Stokes Canada on Oct 2, 1922 Jackson Twp., Greene Co. (children: Hilda Claribel and Dorothy Elizabeth). Elsie was the daughter of John Shepherd Canada and Osha Flanagan of Kentucky. John was the son of David Canada and Elizabeth Loveall (widow of John Shelby Silvers). My grandfather, William Martin Silvers, was the son of Elizabeth and John Shelby Silvers, and the husband of Arlie Strauser--William Bryan Strauser's sister . If anyone related to Elsie Stokes Canada Strauser might have information on her grandmother, Elizabeth Loveall (Silvers), I would greatly appreciate it and be happy to share my info on her first husband their children. She also had a daughter by John Silvers named Nancy. She was living in the household of her step-father, David Canada in 1880, but I've found no other info on what became of her..

Message Board Post:
My 3Great-Grandfather, Elijah ASHCRAFT (1800-1867) was married to two different daughters of Thomas HARDESTY. First to Elizabeth HARDESTY (1802-1859) and later Margaret Alice (1800-1890), widow of Robert EDINGTON.
According to a biographical sketch in the book : "The History of Coshocton County, Ohio - Its Past and Present 1740-1881"(1881), Thomas Hardesty arrived in Coshocton Co.,Ohio with his brother Edmund about 1811/12 and entered land on the SW Quarter of Section 19, Washington Twp.; and remained there until migrating to Greene County, Indiana. It also indicates he spent his youth upon the sea as a sailor.
If he were with George Rogers Clark in his expedition to Kaskaskia and Vincennes in 1779, he would have been about 15 years old. The book "Early Indiana Trails and Surveys" (1919) by George R. Wilson, which was reprinted is for sale by the Indiana Historical Society, has a discussion of Clark's Grant on pages 57-61. The Virginia General Assemby in Acts dated October 3, 1779 and October 5, 1780, promised land bounties to officers and soldiers of Virginia who served until the end of the Revolutionary War -- ranging from 15,000 acres for a Major General to 200 acres for a Private.
In October 1783 the Virginia General Assembly, authorizing a survey of the lands granted the Illinois Regiment [i.e. Clark's] and establishment of a town [Clarksville] within said grant. There were 1000 acres in the Clarksville Grant and 149,000 acres in the Main Grant. The entire Grant is incorporated in what is current day Clark County. Harrison County is part of the Indian cessations negotiated by Gov. W.H. Harrison at Vincennes in 1804 & 1805. It was surveyed and land there sold after Clark's Grant.
If Thomas HARDESTY secured land in Harrison County, it would been through the Land Office in Cincinnati. Margaret R. Waters published a book on these sometime in the 1940s "Indiana Land Enties, Vol.1"
The 1845 Land sale you mention in your post fot Thomas HARDESTY is located in Jackson Township, near where the ASHCRAFT families settled.

Thanks for the reply. Do you know if the son of Minor Frank Pate and Hasseltine (Baxter)Pate by any chance had a son James? His birth date (if there is a son) would be in the right age frame to have had a child with my G-g-Grandmother Ida.
She was born in 1872. Also I thought it was interesting the name Baxter. The first child born to Ida was my g-grandmother Millie Watson married a Goodson. Their first daughter Matilda born in 1861 married an unknown Baxter.
James Pate is the sceond child born to Ida. Total dead end on both of these children's father's.
