Message Board Post:
Does anyone have any ideas on the county bounties along the southern IN boarder? I just
found a record that said my gggm who was a Scranton was born in Oakland City, IN. In all
the years researching Scranton Families I never come across any of them in that area. Most
Scrantons settled in the Dearbon area. just wondering if it was a really big county along
the bottom at one time. Any thoughts on WHY they would go to Oakland City during the
1836-1840 and leave? It's very hard to find anything on this area.
