Hello,
I also have a Susanna Gatton Baker Connett who was a recent widow that went
to Wayne County, IN from Fayette County, OH between 1835-1840. She
remained in Wayne County until about 1850 or shortly thereafter and then
moved on to Putnam County, IN with her daughter and son-in-law. The
Connett's lived in Mason County, KY before they went to OH about 1830. The
Connett's nor Susannah had no known relatives in Wayne County, her deceased
husband had children in other counties, so I have no clue why she went to
Wayne County........any ideas?
Lynn

My ancestors also went from NC (Rowan co) to IN (Wayne co) - but in the
early 1800's (1804 to 1851). They were the NOLANDS and ADAMS. Abraham
ADAMS and his son-in-law, Stephen NOLAND founded Adams Township in
Madison Co, IN. Any clues as to the impetus for the move would be
helpful - they were successful tobacco farmers in NC.
Thank you, Stephany
