Co, IN in the 1800s.

siblings were. Can anyone help? I believe both of their parents and
Siblings may have been from Switzerland County, Ind.
Looking at 1850 Census in Switzerland County, Ind. index reveals
that Straughn's and Hisal's in County. Anyone related?
I have located this couple later in Oldham Co Ky, Westport Pct

I have been looking for the parents of Clarke ANDREWS who was born in OH in 1805. He died in 1845 but there are 2 ANDREWS on the 1880 census who were born in OH who might be related. They are John, age 68 and Nancy, age 60. Does anyone know anything about these 2 people so that we might make a connection?

Sequida married George Washington ENGLISH on Sept. 11, 1837 in Switzerland County. He was my ggggrandfather and we descend from his second wife Elizabeth KEITH. I have information to suggest that Sequida is the d/o James and Vienna HEARICK but that is all that I know. Wondered if someone was researching this line and could fill me in?

I don't think I posted these to the list before, if so excuse the
duplication. Sometimes I think this David Bosaw i am looking for is a
figment of my imagination but here are some obits that have his name and my
family history in them, and I have found him inthe 1860 census of
Switzerland Co with family (father Joseph Bosso -- was Bosaw in 1850) and
in 1900 in Posey Co. with what I feel is 2nd wife. That's all I have found
for him.
Which church would one contact for the "Vevay Christian Church" if
The 1852 and 1868 minutes for the Southeastern Indiana Conference shows
contributions from the following churches in what was then the Mt. Sterling
Circuit. Does anybody know where these were, were they full churches or
missions, and anything about when they existed?
Harrison, Centre, New Hope,Hebron
The 1852 minute show list New Hope as a meeting house and Harrison as a
school house Centre and Hebron do not appear in the 1852 minutes. All four
bodies are listed in 1868.
