Jenni,
Have you searched for any guardianship records in Vigo County for the time period
mentioned below? We were able to find excellent records for a "lost" family in
Vigo County by searching for guardianship records, albeit it was much earlier in the
1800's. Also searching for these families in the 1910 and 1920 censuses may produce
results.

We are searching for information on a family in Vigo County, Indiana. Claude Cruse was
born 07/1900 and had possibly three siblings, Donna Cruse, Bert Cruse and Harry Cruse. The
family was split and some children went to an orphanage, while Claude remained with an
uncle named Tom Porter. We are at a dead end, can't seem to find any records, please
help!
