Thank you Rob, I have only been to Peru one time and unfortunately did not
visit any cemeteries, which are pivotal. We didn't have much time there.
But that is a great lead to work up.That most likely is my g-grandfather
John W. but never could find Sallie or Sarah. I thought that may be the case
about the headstone and for some reason she was not buried with John W. or
even her parents.
I thought it worth a try to ask again to see if someone missed any posts
and you are so gracious to reply. I live in the West and hope to get back
again to visit, not this year but maybe next.
Thank you so much again,
Betty

Betty, I see in the 1900 census a John W. Reder residing in Pipe Creek
Township, if that is the husband to the Sallie you are looking for, have
you been to the Peru Library and looked at a thin bound book titled
"Clymer,
Rankin Springdale & Miami co Cemeteries/ Bowers Vol. 4" ? I have found
several of my relatives listed in that book who's headstones are missing.
Also some Pipe Creek settlers are buried at "Charpie Cemetery" and I
don't
believe that cemetery has ever been recorded. It is on the South side of
Peru and you have to park in some folks driveway and walk back to a corner
of the property to get to that cemetery. I was there a couple years ago
and
it had been mowed and I would guess a couple hundred burials are there.
Good luck hunting and don't give up, it is surprising at what comes ones
way serendipitously when doing genealogy !

Subject: [INMIAMI] Sallie "Sarah" Utter
Hi ,
I know I have posted this a fews years ago, but want to give it a shot
again. My great-grandfather John W. Reder was married to a Sallie Utter,
or
Uter, who would be my great-grandmother. I have tried to find her place
of
burial, headstone or even mention of her death, but I have been
unable to
locate anything. I think she may have died before 1882 as the
courthouse
in
Miami county burned and the records were destroyed.
I know there has got to be some mention of her somewhere in a document or
family info.
Her father was possibly Benjamin Utter. I would appreciate any info.
Thank You,
Betty Lewon
