I am searching for any information regarding an Anna
E. Workman who lived in and around the Rowan County NC
area about 1795.Anna was born about1776. She married Ephraim Goss on March
23,1795 in Rowan county NC. They migrated to
Washington county IN about 1810 and then on to Owen
county IN in 1818. Anna died there on Sept 19, 1854.
This couple had 10 children and I would be interested
in sharing any data. I am trying however to locate who
her parents were or at least eliminate any
Workman/Wortman in the 1790 Rowan county NC census.

Hello,
Has anyone come across James Busby? I know for a fact that he lived in Owen
county for a while and had at least one child born there. His wifes name
was Eliza. I know they came to Owen county from somewhere in Kentucky and
then went back to KY before returning to Greene county where they stayed.

Do you have copy of Owen Co. Cousins? Lots of William and Elizabeth Fulks in
it. If you don't give me as many dates as possible and I'll try and match up.
Larry Hansen
Thanks for your reply, Carolyn. None of the names you give are in my
research so far. Your city is of interest; Mary Ann McKee married Moses B.
Page in Spencer, In, but they spent their married lives in Paris Il. Moses
is buried there. Can't find Mary Ann's burial place, but obituary says she
is buried there, also. I visited there last July and took photos of Moses'
military tombstone (Civil War, 116th Ill. Infantry).
Have a friend of mine that is looking for information on a Billy and Annie
FULK, and their daughter Elizabeth who was born around 1842 or so. My
ancestral information here in NC doesn't find them and was wondering if
anyone following the FULK migration from NC to Indiana might have some clues.
PS: I have a manually stapled, non-copyrighted series of 19 pages that were
provided to me named "The FULK Family History," written by Luther N. BOYD of
Elon College, NC, 1977. Will be glad to look up anyone, but the names in it
are those FULKS that stayed here in NC.

Hi Carolyn and list,
Could your McKee line be in any way connected to that of Clay and Vigo CO IN?
JUst on the off chance, here's what I've got:
William Ferguson Thompson McKee b. 1818 with brother John F.T McKee
found living in Vigo Co. in 1830s and 1840s. Possibly connected with a Robert
McKee
there found in the 1840 census. John married and moved to Iowa, whereas
William
(my ancestor) married a Nancy Thompkins in Vigo Co and moved to Clay Co IN.
In Clay they had lots of land, a Saw Mill and a bunch of kids. Some names are
William, MArtha, Nancy, Robert, Joseph, Arnold. I descend from Robert but
have lots to share on others of this line too.
Since they lived in Clay Co, its not far from Owen and Robert McKee's
daughters married into the OWEN Co. SHIELDS line.
If anyone out there can connect let me know.
Carolyn Shields Lysandrou, Peoria IL
Alexander McKee, father; Wesley McKee,son; Mary Ann McKee, daughter married

Thanks for the information Larry! Will keep an eye open for the

In search of Dudley Curl and wife Penelope Williams, known to have been in
Monroe County 1818-1823.
Dudley Curl was a Grand Juror, Monroe County 1818.
Dudley leased his son John's farm in Monroe County 1823.
Penelope appeared in MO in 1829, alone....!
Have been unable locate Dudley after 1823. Born c1770 he may have died in
Monroe (no cemetery listing located, as yet) or separated from Penelope and
moved to an adjoining county.
Can you help?

You can order copy of book from -Owen Co Historical and Genealogical
society, PO Box 569, Spencer, In 47460 Cost for Volume II (which is latest
update) is 39.00 plus 2.50 postage.
There is a copy in the Historical Building in Old Salem if you want to look
at first. The one for sale is just a reproduction and not hardbound as is the
one there.
Any grave sites or info with Hilsabeck/Helsabeck prior to 1870s I would be
interested in.
Barry Helsabeck may have a copy of book also and lives in your area. Works
for Lucent.

Debbie,
These are the McCullough's listed for the 1850 census in Owen
Co.IN.....the Robert listed here.....is 25 years old and living in the
household of William looks like Warrick?.....
McCullough, Harrison J. IN Owen Wayne Township 1850 164 14
McCullough, Robert IN Owen Taylor Township 1850 164 80
McCullough, Sarah J. IN Owen Wayne Township 1850 164 14
McCullough, William IN Owen Wayne Township 1850 164 13
Let me know if I can lookup anyone else in 1850 for you.
N.J. : )
in MI.
I am interested in two different marriages of a John
McCullough. Either of
which may possibly be of my lineage.
Both of these marriages took place in PA in the late
1700's.
1. John McCULLOUGH to Margaret PETERS on November 6
1772
2. John McCULLOUGH to Jennet MORRISON on August 17
1771.
Does anyone have either of these couples in their
lineages, that I might be
able to confirm or eliminate them from my lineage.
I beleive they were both in the York or Lancaster
county area.
Thank you

I am researching the JONES surname in Owen county as
it pertains to the lineage of
JESSE JONES (born 10-6-1824 died 1-9-1888) who married
Sarah YOUNG
(b.4-27-1825 d. 11-8-1912).
Jesse and Sarah were married 4-25-1839 in I believe
Union county IN. They were the parents of 10 children.
These children tie into various Owen county surnames.
1. Elijah born 1840 married Christina SHOPPELL.
2. William born 1841 married Mary KELLY
3. James born 1846 (no info)
4. Thomas born 1847 (mentioned in detail below)
5. Sampson born about 1850 married Minerva McCLURE
6. John born 1853 married Minnie BEAMAN
7. Emily born 1855 married Enos DAY
8. Anderson born 1857 (mentioned in detail below)
9. Harrison born 1867 (no info)
10. Daniel born unknown and no info
I descend from 2 of these.
1) son-Thomas Jefferson born 7-26-1847 died 6-30-1907.
He married Harriet Elizabeth SWEENEY (b.11-19-1855
d. 12-12-1918).She was the daughter of John G
& Rutha (BRADSHAW) SWEENEY.
Thomas and Harriet were the parents of 13 children.
I descend in one way or another through 3 of them.
2) son-Anderson born 3-13-1857 died 7-17-1927.He
married Frances Catherine Knipe (daughter of John W
& Eva (JOB) KNIPE.) Frances is the niece of
Susannah
Knipe who married John KNOLL (of course another
line of mine).
I realize this is a lengthy post. But I also realize
there were 3 Jesse Jones in Owen county about the same
time frame and they all married a Sarah. I am hoping
by providing the details above I might zero in on my
Jesse and Sarah.

My line descends from Andrew EVANS and Elizabeth FAIN.
Andrew EVANS b. 9-28-1759 in Mecklenburgh county NC and he and Elizabeth
FAIN married about 1781 in Washington county TN. They later migrated to Owen
county IN where Andrew died 12-5-1840.
I am interested in finding the parents of Andrew EVANS. I have seen various
claims that his lineage proceeds as:
David Evans--father
Peter--grandfather
Lot Evans II--great grandfather
Lot Evans I--gg grandfather.
As of yet however, I can find no proof of this. Anywhere I have seen this
listed there is never any clue as to the poster so I can write for
documentation.
Does anyone have any information on this line?
