Surname: Richey
-------------------------
I have a gg grandfather (Henry RICHEY). His wife Mary Ann RICHEY in her
application for Widow Pension had a notation regarding George ROGERS of
Windfall and Susan ROGERS of Windfall. It stated that they had known Mary
Ann RICHEY for 10 years and 30 years respectively. The date of their statement
was July 14, 1890 which would have been four (4) years after George Anderson
ROGERS was born. Do you know if he was the son of George ROGERS, and if
so, do you have any information concerning Susan ROGERS?
Thanks, Dave Richey

Does anyone know where the records for the Brookside Cemetery in Windfall are
kept? Or if there is a transcription of the cemetery? There are a couple of
family stones that I know are there, but, if I'm remembering right, they were
very hard to read, so I didn't make note of them the last time I was there.
Also, Tipton County seems to have no record of my grandfather's death, so I
thought there might be a burial record.
Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
