Message Board Post:
You don't by any chance, have a Thomas Hudson/Hutson in your line in Ripley Co., IN.?
I have an obit. written by my ggg-grandparents that states James Jones was murdered by a
Thomas Hutson about 1830 at a town hall meeting or some public meeting. This has been a
brick wall for me as I have traveled all around that area & can find no record of it.
(Before newspapers) However, I did find in the Jefferson Co., IN Courthouse records where
they argued over some crop sharing. Let me know, if you can relate to this. My
ggg-grandmothers name was Susanah Cowan. Her father was James Jones who was married to
(Katy) Williams. Susannah was only 2 yrs old when this took place. Please answer at
