Hello to the list:
The wonderfully helpful staff at the Vigo Co. Library and Courthouse have sent me the will
of my ggg-grandmother,
Sarah Markham Hale, who, with husband Bradford settled in Vigo Co. in 1823. Sarah d.
1869.
Would like to hear from anyone researching these surnames in the Vigo Co. area:
America Hale McNorton-b. c. 1836, dau of William (b.c.1805 NY) and Mahala Bennett Hale,
spouse Daniel
Elizabeth Hale Clark b. 1838, sister to America, spouse George
(to the heirs of) Sarah Hale McPheeters ?b.c.1847, presumed to be the heir of James and
Eliza Ann Hale
Alice McSherry-listed as the g-grand-daughter of Sarah Markham Hale, a minor in 1867
6 un-named heirs of Lewis C. Hale (b. 7/1804 NY)
living children of Sarah Hale were Alford and Huldah Hale. Huldah's spouse Alvah
D.Hale (probably her cousin) was co-executor of estate with Alford.
