Subject: Thornburg's in Indiana
I am looking for information on Martin Thornburg, his parents and
sibblings.
He married Eliza Alice Landis (Landes, Landers) Dec. 15, 1894.
He was born in Sept. 1868 and died Feb. 23, 1929. He is buried at South
Cemetery in Greensfork, Wayne Co., IN.
He was a lumberjack and was killed when a tree fell on him.
Eliza was born Feb. 1870 and died December 22, 1939 and is buried in South
Cemetery also.
Their children were Clyde and Rhoda Bell Thornburg.
Eliza's parents were Mark and Anna Landis.
I have no other information on Martin or his family.
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreicated. Thank you.
Gloria
