Dear List ~
I am a new "lister" and am searching for any information on the DORMAN family
of Hancock Co., IN, in the 1850s. From the information I have received on
the 1850 Census & 1860 Census, JOHN DORMAN was the father to our ZACHARY
TAYLOR DORMAN and siblings, JAMES W., JOEL G., LOUISA, and JOHN. Zachary was
born about 1848 and his parents, John Dorman & MARGARET GRAY DORMAN, m.
August 8, 1842, in Hancock Co., IN.
I was informed that there was a "probable" marriage after 1850 of MARGARET
GRAY DORMAN to THEOPHILUS JONES.
Zachary Taylor Dorman and his wife (which I have not been able to find as
yet) would have been married before 1877, as our grandmother, LELLA MAE
DORMAN was born in 1877. The wife to Zachary Taylor Dorman died when Lella
was about 16 (1893) and the family (3 children {Lella Mae, Lessie Lee, &
Edward} and father, Zachary) moved to Jefferson Co., MO.
Any help on this family would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Sharon Nordman Ogle in Ogle County, IL
