HI,
I am searching for our Great Grandfather Alexander Scott Mitchell. His
pension papers say he was born Feb. 1, 1846 in Brown Co., IL.
For the last 12 years I have been searching Brown Co. IL, and all the
contiguous counties. He was not there.
So I started searching INdiana Brown county. I found an A S Mitchell, but
it turned out to be Albert Scott Mitchell.
The "dry hole" response is because my Sister calls our research "looking
down rabbit holes".
Any information you can give would be very appreciated.
Grandma Jone
PS: A Cousin donated his DNA and we know that Rev. Morris and Elizabeth
Huosng Mitchell of Md, PA, TN, and MO are our ancestors. But I cannot find
the link to Alexander Scott Mitchell.

I am curious about your response to the obit that was sent to you..This is a
great obit, why is it a "dry hole"? What exactly are you looking for on the
Mitchell family? I have a relative in Indiana lived in Johnson Co. her
maiden name is Mitchell. I won't give her name and # unless she approves.
Bettye
