between 1855 and 1860 and that Elizabeth moved the family to Indianapolis at
that time. The older children in the family were born in Pulaski Co.,
Kentucky. Based on their ages and birthplace in the census records, the
family probably moved to Indiana about 1840 or 1841. |

of Fillmore. |

Married three times. First to
Patience Chadd 12 Nov 1810 in Bourbon Co., KY. She was the daugther of Samuel
Chadd who was a Revolutionary War Veteran. Thomas and Patience had ten
children, born in Harrison Co., KY and Putnam Co. Patience died about Apr 1840,
not sure where she is buried. Thomas Kinsler married second Rebecca Reeves 4
March 1841 in Putnam Co. Rebecca's father was Samuel Reeves. Her sistee was
Beulah (Reeves) Browning, who is buried in the Browning cemetery northeast of
Greencastle. This marriage ended in divorce 31 October 1846 in Putnam County.
They are believed to have had a daughter Susan, who married Gilbert Sinclair.
Thomas Kinsler married third Ellen Clark 14 Jan 1850 in Putnam County. They
apparently had no children. Not sure who Ellen Clark's parents were. Weiks History of Putnam County, page 532. |

KINSLER |
Ellen |
nee Ellen Clark, not sure who
her parents were. Third wife of Thomas Kinsler. Ellen might be the sister of
John Clark, father of Harvey Clark stone 100. Harvey Clark is listed in the
1870 census in Marion Township, age 36, along with his wife Jemima, age 33
(she is buried here) and there son John, age 6. Also listed in this household
is John Clark, age 70, Perline Clark, age 65 and Ellen Kinsler, age 65. |

BYRUM |
Mary |
Not
sure who this is. Mary Byrum is listed in the 1850, 1860 and 1870 census
records in the Mt. Meridian area as the head of household with (presumably)
daughters Martha, born about 1838, and Nancy, born about 1839. The 1880
census lists only Mary and Martha. The only Byrum that would fit in the 1840
census is a Ridley Byrum in Warren Township. Ridley Byrum married Polly Smith
9 Mar 1831 in Putnam County. It might be possible that this Polly is actually
the Mary buried here. |

Not sure who this is. I am not
able to fit any Sarah to a Wilson in marriage or census records. |

The following are in a
pile at the south end of the cemetery along the edge of the woods: |
|

WILSON |
Sally Bell |
This
may be the daughter of Sarah F. Wilson who is buried here, stone 196. If so,
I am not sure who her father John Wilson is. |

BUNTEN |
George |
Son of Andrew Harrison Bunten
and Lucy Ann (Evans) Bunten who are buried in this cemetery, stone 120. |

HUNTER |
Isaphena |
This person is also listed on
stone 106. |

BRANN |
William |
This is an old stone at the
south end of the cemetery. William is also listed on stone 114. |
|
|
A |
BRANN |
Richard |
Not sure who this is. There is a
Richard Brann listed in the 1850 census in Marion Township in the home of
John Brann, age 60 born in Virginia. That may or may not be the same Richard
Brann. |
|
|
|
A |
BRANN |
Charlotte G. |
Not
sure who this is. There is a Richard L. Brann listed in the 1860 census in
Marion Township, born about 1810 in Ohio. The other individuals listed in
this census are William, age 23 born Ohio, Leroy B., age 20 born Ohio, James,
age 17 born Ohio, Mary A., age 14 born Ohio, Isaac, age 12 born Ohio, Abba?,
female age 9 born Indiana, Sarah A, age 6 born Indiana and Charlotte, age 3
months born Indiana. This census was taken 12 June 1860, so the child
Charlotte was born about March 1860. It is very likely that the Charlotte G.
Brann buried here is from this family and died about a month after the child
Charlotte was born. |
|
|
|
A |
BRANN |
Sarah S. |
Not sure who this is. It is
possible that this is a daughter of Richard Brann and Charlotte G. Brann,
who's stone is nearby. This stone is broken and there is no age, so it is
difficult to determine when this child was born, but there was a daughter
named Sarah listed in the household of Richard L. Brann in the 1860 census
mentioned above who was born about 1854 in Indiana. |
|
|
|
A |
BRANN |
Mary A. |
Not sure who this is. It is
possible that this is a daughter of Richard Brann and Charlotte G. Brann,
who's stone is nearby. This stone is broken and there is no age, so it is
difficult to determine when this child was born, but there was a daughter
named Mary listed in the household of Richard L. Brann in the 1860 census
mentioned above who was born about 1846 in Ohio. |
|
|
|
A |
DUNCAN |
Sarah A. |
Not sure who this is. There is a
Sarah A. Duncan listed in the household of William W. Duncan in the 1860 Marion Township Census, but the age is
off by about five years. I can find no record of a Sarah marrying a W. Duncan
or a William W. Duncan marrying anyone in Indiana in the age range of this
Sarah. |
