have you corresponded with Chocy? I'm copying her - I believe her Kellers started in
VA - This is what she sent me.
I am looking for a Jonathan or John KELLER who went to Indiana; but was never heard from
again. When his father died in Frederick County his sibilings declared they could not
locate him.

Hi!
A search of LDS film #549381, Harrison County Court Records yielded results for
families named in the headlines. Those names are families all connected with my
family lines.
Very few of the records had page numbers.
1)page 4, U.S. vs. Samuel C. Tinley, on same, April term 1817. On motion of the
prosecuting attorney and it appearing to the satisfaction of the court that the
defendant has not been arrested and that he is not an inhabitant of this state.
It is ordered that this case be dismissed.
2)page 8, Thomas Gill vs. Samuel C. Tinley & others, April term 1817.
Petition 7 summons. Defendant's attorney Reuben W. Nelson petitioned to
quash.
3)Thomas Gill vs. Samuel C. Tinley et. al., petition and summons. One
defendant, Jonathan Keller, cannot gainsay the plaintiff's action but that
it is just. Therefore, the court orders plaintiff to receive $100.
4)Jonathan Keller vs. James Pell et. al., in debt. April term 1817.
5)April term 1817, 5th day. Edward Smith vs. Jonathan Keller; from &
conversion. Jury couldn't reach a verdict; dismissed and continued.
6)April term 1818, 7th day; James McKindle vs. John & Simon Tindall
7)November term 1818, 1st day. William Terry, called to grand jury duty.
8)April term 1819, 1st day; Indiana vs. James Tindall, indictment for riot.
Jury found him guilty; fined 50 cents.
9)August term 1819, 10th day; Seth Levenworth vs. William Terry, an appeal;
continued.
10)November term 1819, 11th day; Indiana vs. Jonathan Keller, assault &
battery.
11)November term, 1819, November 30, 1819; Keller pleads guilty, fined $1.00.
12)November term 1819, 10th day; Levenworth vs. William Terry, appeal. Appeal
failed; neglecting to move his right to a ferry on Big Blue River.
I am particulary interested in the Terry and Tinley families. My strong
suspicion now is that Samuel C. Tinley was the father of Sarah Tinley, wife of
James Adams, my 3rd gr grandfather. I suspect that William Terry is the father
of Sarah Tinley's mother, Sarah Terry. Sarah Terry shows birth in North
Carolina, she died in Harrison County, IN in 1877.
The Kellers might be connected with my Cotner family.
I would be glad to correspond with anyone researching these families.
