I am sending this along for what it is worth. Perhaps you already have this
information. I have taken this information from "History of Dearborn and
Ohio Counties, Indiana, 1885".
Chapter XXVIII, Harrison Township, Early Settlement and Notes, page 523, 524:
In 1879 the venerable William McClure, of Franklin County, this state, wrote
as follows:.....................
Quote: "My father moved to Richland Creek about four miles below Brookville,
in 1807. At that time Ralph Wildridge and the Treads, and perhaps, John and
Samuel Rockafellar, lived about New Trenton, and over the river, opposite the
Big Narrows, Isaac Levi and a man by the name of Brownlee were the first
settlers. John Vanblaricum settled at the upper end of the Big Narrows.
Zachariah Cooksey settled next above and George Rudicil's father, where Maj.
Rudicil now lives. About that time Michael Rudicil settled about a mile east
on the upland." Unquote.
This may be of no use to you but is the only place mentioned in this book.
