I'd like to do more searching in the census records but am not sure which
twps are involved. I know Salamonie Twp., Huntington is full of thses folks
& I've looked there. What would the other Twps. in south Huntington be?
Also I'd like to look in Wells & Blackford Counties. I think Jackson Twp in
Wells adjoins Huntington, but what abt Blackford twps? My Kelly & Tharps
were in Van Buren Twp in Grant co. My line is as follows:
