Frederick WAUGHTEL/L was my 3rd great grandfather. He along with his
first wife Patsy KNOT/TS were in the 1820 Washington County, IN census.
I could not find Frederick in the 1830 Indiana census. Patsy evidently
died as Frederick remarried December 1828 to Susanna BOATMAN. Whether
this was her maiden name or a previous marriage surname I know nothing
of. Frederick was in the newspaper in 1836 either being admitted (or
released) from the county poor asylum. Where was that located and are
there records available. His son James was in Jefferson County, 1835
(Elizabeth BEAR) & 1837 (Nancy KEEL) as he married those years and in
the 1850s his family moved to Jennings County where they lived and
died. His daughter Jane married 1838 (Enoch STARK) and 1840 (John
SUMMA) in Washington County, Indiana. But nary a word of Frederick
after that 1836 article. Where could I look next? He had to have died
in that general vicinity I would think.
