I read your letter on line and noted you belong to a genealogical society
in Miami. I am hoping you could provide some information for me or direct me
in the right direction,
My family consisted of John Savage and his wife. Ellen Sullivan. They came
to the states in approximaately 1855 with their children. The children were
James, Hannah, John S,. Catherine, and Cain Savage (or possibly a Calvin )
James was born in Ireland, Kerry County approx. 1843, Hannah who married
France Purcell, John S. Savage who married Mary Ellen O'Brien in Indianapolis in
1874, Catherine Savage born about 1848 and Cain was born approx. 1850. All
children were born in Ireland. They lived in Miami County and in Peru
Indiana. One record I have found shows them with a Gilead address.l
James went with a Morman wagon tree and settled in Carson City, NV. Hannah
and her husband went to Kansas. John married Mary O'Brien Oct. 25. 1874.
They had six children - John Thomas, Mary Ellen, Kate and Julia were born in
Indiana. Moved to Kansas in 1881 and Rose, Maurice were born in Wetmore,
Kansas.
If anyone has heard of this family I would appreciate hearing from you. I
feel the older John Savage and his wife must have died Indiana. The family
were Catholic.
