of Hezekiah SMART b. ca. 1797 in KY and Margaret HINKSON
b. ca 1823 possibly in or near Marion, Ind. I am fairly sure that their
marriage took place in Marion and that they lived in the area for a while.
Their daughter Margaret married Asa SHIMER. I would be more than
glad to share the abundance of information that I have on these families.
Would like to connect with HINKSON a/o SHIMER researchers.
Thank you so much

parents of my greatgrandmother Minerva (Minnie) MITCHELL born Mooresville,
IN, (Morgan Co.) Dec 22, 1876, married James Michael BROGAN, Indianapolis,
IN, 1894, died in Indianapolis, IN, August 15, 1909. Henry and Mary MITCHELL
found in 1860 census, Mooresville, Brown Twp, Morgan Co. with son Daniel,
4 mos., and in 1870 census in Martinsville, Washington Twp, Morgan Co.
with children Isabella, b. 1860, George, b. 1864, Emily (Emma), b. 1869.
Henry and Mary are believed to have died by 1880, leaving Minnie a very
young orphan. Family story is that she lived in an orphanage but have been
unable to verify. Looking for parents of Henry MITCHELL and Mary
HENDRICKSON and dates of death of either and any other family information,
especially location of Minerva MITCHELL in 1880. Henry was a farm
laborer, could not read or write; was said to have served in the Civil
War "for someone else"; I would love to know what company. Minnie
MITCHELL had one son, my grandfather, Cornelius Roderick BROGAN. Henry MITCHELL and Mary HENDRICKSON were both born in Indiana (according to census records).

in Indianapolis right around 1800, married Betsy MARTIN in Wayne
County in 1819, then lived in Brownsville Township, now Union but then
Fayette County, in 1820. By 1830 Joshua was in McNairy County, Tennessee,
where I believe he remarried. Around 1833 my girlfriend's great-great-grandfather
Rolan H. SIMPSON was born, and finally in 1844 the family settled
in Texas. Would love to find other descendants of Mr. SIMPSON, and
also (cross my fingers) the name of Joshua's parents.

In 1860 he was living next door to William and Martha HORN, north

southwest Cork). Family tradition says that he immigrated through New Orleans
about 1840, possibly with an older brother named Daniel, and went north
to work on the railroad in Indiana. However, he does not appear on *any*
surviving passenger list. Johannah HAYES (b. c1842 in Ireland, probably
Cork or Kerry) arrived at Boston in August 1853 with her mother (Ellen
HAYES, a nurse). She m. Morgan 22 Oct 1858 Lafayette, IN. They lived
in Pulaski Co, IN until c1890 and had 12 children (about whom a great deal
is known). They are believed to have been naturalized but no record has
yet been found. Morgan worked for the Monon Railroad for many years and
died on the job, away from home. There is a parish record in Attica, Indiana
(which is located on the Monon route) indicating that "Michael
Cronin," age 65, died and was buried there, 17 Feb 1887. This
is the only CRONIN listing in any Fountain County record, ever;
could this be Morgan? After her husband's death, Johannah moved the family
to Indianapolis. She died there 1891 and was buried at Holy Cross. This
line evidently is *not* connected to the CRONIN family of Perry
Co, IN, who were pre-Revolutionary immigrants. Any further information
or documentation on this family would be very welcome.
