Kay, have you tried crossing the Ohio River to the Carroll, Gallain, or Owen
Co.'s. There was a ferry crossing at Carrollton & Warsaw. Many met there
parterner in life on one side or the other. I have family from that area
also. For example, my granfather was born and raised in Switzerland Co. IN.
Met his wife in Gallatin, KY and was married in Carrollton, KY.
Good Luck, Judy

Subject: [INSWITZE] STURGEON
My great great grandmother was Emily Goien/Golen, b. abt 1842 GA. Marriage
#1
to a John THOMAS, marriage #2 to John STURGEON, 2 September 1878 in
Switzerland Co. John Sturgeon d. 7 Mar 1907 Craig Twp., and is buried in
Vevay Cemetery. His death record says he was living in Rising Sun at the
time
of his death.
The 1880 Switzerland Co. census is the only one in which I've been able to
find Emily. I've gone through the 1900 & 1910 censuses for the area around
Rising Sun and haven't located her. Have been unable to locate any record of
her death.
Any suggestions?
