Re: [INTIPTON] James Pulley in Tipton Co., IN, Wildcat Twp.
by Wayne & Elaine Van Dien
Hi Judy,
I found this message buried in my genealogy folders. Sorry I didn't reply
sooner. But I don't have a lot of info, just a little on Martha Ann
(Harris) Mitchell and James Pulley.
Martha Ann was my gggrandmother. My gggrandfather John S. Mitchell died in
1855. She married James Pulley 30 March 1857. A son William was born in
1858. They were divorced in 1859, the same year your info has him marrying
Mary Golding. I don't know if James had anything to do with son William
because when Martha died in 1869 a guardian was appointed. I do have a plat
map showing James Pulley's land in Tipton County, but that's about all I
know.
Do you know what happened to James Pulley's first wife Eliza? If she died
my gggrandmother might have had the other Pulley children living with
William and her other children Mary G. Mitchell (my ggrandmother), James H.
Mitchell and Elizabeth Mitchell for a very brief period of time since they
were divorced in 1859. Divorce of course was very uncommon at this time. I
wish I knew the whole story. Sounds like it might have been a bit of a
scandal.
Do you know much about James? I would be interested in any further
information about him and about William Pulley. If you run across anything,
be sure to let me know.
Thanks,
Elaine
