Would the listowner permit a rollcall for Orange County? I don't know
whether this list permits such a thing but maybe we could "revive" some
interest if we did. Please let us know!
I am "still" looking for my Samuel FRENCH family who lived in the Northwest
township of Orange County. In fact, the old homestead is still standing
and the cemetery is there with the headstones.
He married Julia Ann DOUGHERTY (she was from Barren and Jessamine County
areas) and they came to Indiana before 1820. I have never been able to find
a marriage record for them...have searched every CD, every book, etc. So if
anyone ever sees a record, I would love to have it.
Julia's Mother was a WILLIAMS and Julia's Father was Robert DOUGHERTY who
was in the legislature in Kentucky and the second Senator Kentucky ever had.
His house still stands in Barren County, Kentucky which I hope to see
someday.
Here is a short outline of their family and who they married...perhaps
someone will see a surname they recognize...if so, PLEASE write....every
little bit helps.
Another family in Orange County was the Adam BRUNER family. In fact, Adam
BRUNER, Jr. died there 08 April 1849. Would anyone have any cemetery
records on this? Are there any Cemetery records one can buy for this area
from the local genealogical society?
Here is Samuel FRENCH family...hope to hear from some descendants and
THANKS...Jan Lund
