Hi,
I am also researching the Dubois line. I believe I am descended from Lincoln Dubois
(father of Ethel Dubois Shirkey)who is the brother of William. Have you found any further
information about them? I know Lincoln lived with his brothers at different times in his
life as their father "William R. Dubois" died somewhere between the 1860 and
1870 census. His father went by William R in all censuses except the 1850 census where he
was "Richmond". the mother's name is Amanda.
Of course we may not have the same Williams as the line I am descended from was not born
in Union county but moved there later in life...they lived in both Wayne and Hamilton
counties.
Any info would be appreciated. I'd love to share what I have found if you need any
info. I have just begun so I don't have the line very far back however. I need to
make a trip to Union county but may start in Fort Wayne's geneology center since
it's closer.
Thanks,
Amber
