I live in Michigan and am tracking back the Tawney family. Found them in Indiana. I am
looking for any and all information on Elias Tawney, born in Allen County, Indiana, who
may have moved to Whitley county along with his brother John after their mothers death in
1874. Elias may have married there and found in the census they had 3 children born in
Indiana. In the 1900 census it stated there were 9 children and only 7 living. One of
the names that might be Elias's daughter is Jessie who died in 1893.
Jessie Faith Tawney
Born: 1 Jun 1880
Died: 27 Mar 1893 in Whitley County, Indiana
Buried in Blue River Cemetery, Thorncreek Twp., Whitley County, Indiana
The only names listed on the werbsite besides hers are her grandparents, J and M A Riley.
Thanks for the help.
