I have been researching the Randolph Co., IN Mills's for 33 years and in 1978 while in
Farmland/Winchester - we were told by Mills descendants living at that time that Joseph
Mills -b: 24-Dec-1822 (son of Morgan), married his first cousin Sarah "Sallie"
Mills -b:12-Sept-1824 (daughter of Old Jacob Mills.) I am sure most of the Mills
researchers have this same info.
Then - last week, Ted Mills (a fellow Mills researcher), sent me a link to a new bunch of
records recently posted on the FamilySearch (LDS) website - "Indiana Marriages from
1811-1959".
While searching that database I came across a record for a Jacob R. Mills -b: 18-Dec-1852
in Farmland (son of Joseph Mills1822), who married his 2nd wife - Ida E.(Arment) Clevenger
- on 11-Oct-1922. (this Jacob R. Mills was 70 y/o in 1922 and both Jacob R and Ida resided
in Muncie, IN).
The info of interest to me from that marriage record was that Jacob R. Mills stated that
his father was Joseph Mills and that his mother was a Sarah GALBRETH - not Sarah Mills.
The FamilySearch site claims that all the records posted on their site are "authentic
records".
Is anyone else interested in this info?? I would like to get a copy of that marriage
record.
Thanks, J
