Sheila - This is wonderful information - Thank you !!
1820 was about the time my Eastman ancestor's from New York and my Green
ancestor's from North Carolina came to the Madison area of Jefferson Co., Indiana.
Soon these people encouraged other relatives to join them and for the next 50 years, until
1870, my family roots grew deep in both Jefferson and Jennings counties.
I have been researching this area of Indiana for 10 years - 5 of those years from my
computer chair in Minnesota.
Articles like you have just posted are a God send to those of us that cannot pick up and
do our research in person, where this info is located.
I am thrilled about this and look forward to much more of the same!
Bless You,
Judy Mills Boie
