Denise,
Thank you so much for checking. William Bough, son of John A. and Sarah
(Workman) Bough died on January 10, 1929. I found his death record and
obit at Greene County, Indiana. I had hoped the obit would mention the
whereabouts of Henry Noah Bough, William's putative brother, but it did not.
John A.Bough, son of Fredrick and Rebecca (Sexton) Bough, had a brother
named William. That William died on May 29, 1908, in Richalnd Township,
Greene County, Indiana. His obit appeared in the Bloomfield Democrat on
June 4, 1908, page 1.
Hi,
I am interested in the mother, REBECCA SEXTON BOUGH, of Fredrick &
William Bough. I believe she may be connected to our William & Leah
Free Sexton. Leah became widowed in Whitley Co KY & moved with children
(grown)to Greene Co IN, where she died in 1839. Have been searching for
IN descendants of Leah in hopes of FINALLY determining the name of
Leah's parents. A whole lot of our SEXTON/SEXSON line are trying to
find this missing link and believe there must be a Family Bible or oral
tradition somewhere within the IN descendants of Leah Free Sexson that
would have the names of her parents. We know her father's name was
ISAAC FREE/FERREE; but, which ISAAC & who did he marry?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Nancy Elam-Kelly
