Donna, I checked the 1870 Indiana Census Index during a lull working as a
volunteer in the local gene library... We have the film, but there is
seldom a reader free when I am, and our 2 readers are pretty crochety.
1870 INDIANA INDEX shows
Paul Strickland 70 m.w. NJ Ripl Shelby 355 233
no Ezra/Esau listed anywhere in state
Fanny Strickland 50 f.w. IRE RIPL Shelby 355 239
... the widow perhaps? - she lives very close to Paul.
