Message Board Post:
I am looking for the birth records of Abram Lewis Long born in Ripley Co Indiana in 1840
to Strawder Long and Unknown wife. Abram is my g g grandfather and was a civil war vet
and POW for the 39th Indiana Infantry Co D. I have lots of good information about Abram
but that is where it stops. I know there is a scrap of information that will prove the
family stories I just have to keep looking.
Abram had 7 brothers and sisters of which he is the oldest. His father Strawder (Stroder,
Strother) Long was born in Indiana in 1808 possibly in Ripley Co but maybe not. Now his
father is Abraham Long born in Virgina in 1774. If I could find any information about
this line of Longs' I would be eternally indebted to whoever helped. Perhaps a hint
on where to search or special places to do research any help would be terrific!!!
