From what we can figure they were married before they came to Morgan County Indiana from the Wise County Virginia area. They ended up in Iowa where they died. From what I know no marriage record has been found.

I would also like documentation of the children of Henry Kimbler. Could there have been two Henry Kimblers? George Washington Kimbler who is my ancestor would be to old to be a son of the Tanner woman. Otherwise I thought Henry Kimbler was married first possibly to a Crockett since his place became their land in Wythe co. Va. and William Kimbler who was suppossed to be a son of Henry Kimbler had a son named John Crockett Kimbler. Duane McKenzie. dmckenze(a)hutchtel.net

Captain Robert Wallace Norman of Martinsville, Indiana and the United States Army Air Corps was killed May 13, 1945, while serving in the South Pacific during World War II. He is buried at the Manila American Cemetery in the Philippines.
We have found the following reference at the Indiana State Library website; World War II database. We do not have the information because we do not have access to the microfilms here in the Philippines but we are hoping for some help from our posting. Our goal is to find the families of Indiana servicemen and present them with free photographs of their loved one’s grave sites or their names as they appear on the “Tablets”. This information will increase our chances of finding the families. Please help us!

Hello, I am a retired American veteran residing in the Philippines with my Filipino wife. A year ago we visited the memorial as visitors but came home with a mission in our hearts. As we gazed over the beautifully manicured acres and the 17,202 American graves, it was obvious only a few families had ever visited their graves.
I stepped into the soft grass and focused my camera on one of the white crosses, a grave of an Ohio soldier. A strange calmness was in the air as I walked a few more steps and a cross of an Indiana soldier lay square in my path. The letters of the inscription on the marker was bolder than ever, here lay a soldier from my home state.
At that moment a quiet brainstorm aroused my humble thoughts. I wondered if I could locate any of the families of these men. My stride became more defined and within a few moments I had located and photographed eight more graves.
Since those gut-wrenching but touching moments we have energized our efforts in finding the families of these American men from Indiana. We have located well over 100 and have delivered the FREE photographs to them via email.
Please visit our website and see the men we have honored and the families we have assisted in finding a more genuine closure of a horrible tragedy.

Our success in finding the families was the result of journalists, amateur genealogists, historians, historical societies, librarians and lots of wonderful Hoosiers and those with Indiana ties across America.
During our search we have also reached families from other states as well and have filled special requests for photos from the Manila American Cemetery. We presently have photographed only the graves of the Indiana soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen; however we have photographed all of the names that are engraved on the "Tablets of the Missing". We offer them free of charge to anyone who asks.
We ask for your help in finding their families. We understand this is a genealogy board but we do not need immediate genealogy in that form, we need leads to find the families. Please become one of our special volunteers today and find the family of an Indiana serviceman from near your home. A list of the men from your Indiana county is available, free and all you must do is request it.

First off, let me apologize to any I may have offended with my "off subject" post... I did have permission from Owen Co, but, not from Morgan or Putnam... But, so far, I have not received a reprimand from Morgan or Putnam...
I do realize that the Floppy is not used much, now, but, I believe the Zips could be of use to someone...
I did receive one very facetious offer for the "Whole batch". 50 cents...
Again, Please accept my apologies...
Oh, by the way, I have always been taught that that is what that old DELETE button is for...

I recently converted to DSL and got a CD Burner. I have 60 Floppies and 12 Zip Discs I would like to sell... Any one interested?
