I believe Minnie's mother was Mary Fields, who married Joseph W. Cullison in Greene
County on 3 Jan 1878. The 1900 Center Twp, Greene Co., IN census listing for Joseph and
Mary C. Cullison shows that Joseph and Mary had been married for 10 years and had 5
children and 5 children living. However, the following children are listed with them:
Minnie age 17 b. July 1882 in Kansas, F b. Ohio, M b. Illinois
Olive D. age 10 b. Nov 1889 in Indiana, F b. Ohio, M b. Ohio
Jacob O. age 6 b. Jan 1894 in Indiana, F b. Ohio, M b. Ohio
Ruby age 2 b. May 1898 in Indiana, F b. Ohio, M b. Ohio
Going back to the marriage index for Greene Co, I found a Minnie Cullison who married a
Riley Carrell on 27 Apr 1907 with supplemental information giving her parents as William
Cullison and Mary Fields.
Joseph W. Cullison married a Mary M/N(hard to read) Fields on 3 Jan 1878 in Greene Co.
Also, I found a Joseph and Mary A. Cullison listed in the 1880 census in Iola Twp, Allen
Co., Kansas with a John and Margaret Ockerman. Below is the information for them (though I
omitted the birthplaces of each person's parents in this listing).
John Ockerman 37 b. Indiana
Margret Ockerman 33 b. Ohio
Lelia(?) Ockerman 11 b. Indiana
Francis Ockerman 8 b. Indiana
Newton 4 b. Indiana
Joseph Cullison 31 b. Ohio
Mary A. Cullison 22 b. Illinois
Nellie Cullison 2 b. Indiana
It's possible the Kansas Joseph and Mary are unrelated but tthought I post the
information since I found it and it appears to match up fairly well with the other
information found.
