The last few days I have put my blogging aside to begin
organizing evidence with the goal of proving multiple links to Revolutionary
War Patriots for one particular descendant. I believe this descendant has
Revolutionary War Patriots on both paternal and maternal lines. This is a big job to
prove and I am trying to organize evidence to plan my research. Please wish me
luck.
Today was spent searching the web for evidence. I am
particularly grateful to the Hendricks County, Indiana County Clerk. Many of
their archives are scanned and can be accessed from my computer. Today I found original
marriage licenses dating as far back as 1832. This is important information to
connect generations.
Hendricks
County, Indiana County Clerk, “Marriage License 1824-2003,” scanned database, “Hendricks County Archives Scanned Records
(http://www.co.hendricks.in.us/Archive/ArchiveHome.asp
: accessed 15 Feb 2012), Marriage
License Book 1&1/2, 1831-1837, digital page 59 of 174, 11 Oct 1832 marriage
license of Alexander Adams and Vileta Cundiff.
I also located a transcription of the Will of Robert Adams
who passed away in 1816. Robert Adams names his wife and children when
bequeathing his worldly possessions. Finding the transcription necessitates
trip to Pulaski County, Kentucky to view the original will, transcript it,
photograph it or scan it. All in
all, today was a fruitful day.
