Dear Fellow Researchers:
I am trying to determine which county Laughery Twp. is in.
I am researching the John Thorn(e) family and the 1820 census lists him in
Laughery Twp., Dearborn County. Is that township still there?
I am looking for his parents and his marriage in 1818 to Margaret Blue,
daughter of Benjamin Blue and Elizabeth Beard.
Hope to hear from someone.
Karen
Karen,
Laughery Twp. is currently located in Ripley co. The city Batesville is
located in Laughery Twp.
In the 1820 census it may have been considered Dearborn county, as Ripley
county was formed from Dearborn. About 1818 to 1819 Ripley was in the
process of forming it's own county.
Marriage records from that time would probably be from Dearborn county.
