Message Board Post:
I would be grateful for information about the COVINGTON family found on page 62 of the
Cemetery Index: Anna, Mary L., Thomas, and Thomas E.
From my research it appears this family lived in Lagrange in the early
1900s when Thomas E. was a Baptist minister there. I've no idea which Baptist church.
Then they returned to their native Fort Wayne and lived there many years. However, when
Thomas died 18 August 1933, his wish was to be buried at Greenwood Cemetery. His wife Anna
was buried there too, after her death 26 September 1953. Is it also possible to obtain
obituries for these two from the local newspaper, which may shed additional light on their
lives? Any help deeply appreciated as I currently live overseas. My email has an
underscore between p_tharp, it is p_tharp(a)hotmail.com Thank you very much.
Sincerely, Patricia Boddy Tharp
