Is anyone descended from Arthur Walker who obtained at least 40 acres of land in Putnam County Jan 1, 1835 at the Crawfordsville office ?
I believe the land was in Clinton Twp, Putnam County between the Clinton Falls Church and the Clinton Center School.
I have a some type of land certificate pertaining to this purchase. I believe it was in my Aunt's attic when we held her estate sale in 1977. I just came across this item in some old pictures that I have kept.

Dear Cristy in WA,
My ggg grandmother was Mary (aka Polly) Grider. Information I have on her
is from an old family tree obtained from Eleanor Ward Timmons of
Crawfordsville, IN. It shows my Mary Grider born 20 April 1788, and dying
17 July 1861, and that she married my ggg grandfather John Riley Dickerson.
Further information that I've obtained (from other sources) shows my Mary
Grider was born in Greenbrier Co., VA, and that she married John Dickerson
24 April 1804, place unknown. The John Riley

Seeking information regarding John Ford. Have reason to believe, but no
documentation, that John Ford (b 1827 in Putnam Co and married Martha Jane
Siddens, also of Putnam Co) was the son of Philip and Delila (Lane) Ford.
Philip was born in 1795 in TN, but my records show he moved to Putnam Co
between 1817 and 1830. Any help would be appreciated.

Yes. I would love to have a copy of the page with the Fall family. The

Thank you for doing this. It is very generous of you.

Ellie,
You can see why I got so excited about this series of books. To me they
are the best new set of genealogy books that our librarian has added to
our collection.
For those of you who are wondering. I'll be doing the last of the
research at the library today and hopefully will get everyone's packets
finished up tonight and out in tomorrow's mail. Jan who isn't truly
that slow, just doing a lot of research and copying in OK

You all feel free to share this info.
Anyone else want a copy of the land patent mass that has Ransom Moss,
Lyman Love, and Benjamin Poyner on it? Jan who occasionally finds
something good
Hi Jan,
I understand how difficult a virus scanner can make one's life -
I know mine does from time to time.
I received a map - pg 88 - but can find no Poyner or Love in it.
Don't worry about it right now, take your time and then let me
know if I am going blind or what? And thank you for trying so hard.

Jan,
Could you scan any Goodwin or McHaffie info? You have done everyone a great favor by bringing up the land patent books! I had no idea this resource was even out there. I think I will invest in the Clay and Rush County books.
Thanks for your help!

I'm a bit confused. Do you mean group maps 5 & 6 or pages 5 & 6? There
is a major difference, here are no maps on 5 and 6 the index for the
first map doesn't even start until about page 60. Page 13 is the over
all location of the group maps, which I am including in all packets I am
putting together. I've got those to map groups here already and could
include them in the massive printing I'm doing today if that is what you
need. Do you need the index for those as well (it includes the legal

I am searching for information on my GG Grandparents, George and Sarah (Campbell) Blackwell.
George was born abt 1819 in Kentucky, and Sarah was born abt 1822 in Indiana. They were married in Putnam Co. in 1842.
I have been unable to find information on George's parents. Does anyone have any information, or any ideas how we can find that information?
We'd also like to find Sarah's mother's maiden name and family. All we know is that she is Nancy, b abt 1794 in North Carolina, married George Campbell

That would be me.
