Nancy,
I really appreciate you taking a look for the information for me. I
will keep all the names and info you did find on file in case I find a
connection later. I was hoping to get a line on Ella Sweazey's place
of birth. Will continue to search. You were great to spend your time
trying to help others. And besides, not finding something is also
helpful as it points in other directions for me to search.
Thanks for help. I hope I can return the favor at some time.
Jim
James,
I went to the library today and I am sorry to say I couldn't find a marriage
in the vital record index for James Roof and Ella M. Sweazey. THis index is
from 1860 to 1920. I also found no deaths and only one birth Minnie Roof b.
7-7-1890 to W. Roof and Ella Grose. A James Roof married Edna Winters14 Dec.
1901 but this is all the info the South Bend Tribune (our local newspaper)
gave. I am so sorry I could not be of more help to you. I know that our county
is being difficult and I really wanted to help you out.
Nancy
