    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Cemetery: 15 Aug 1907, Richland Center Cemetery, Larwill, Whitley, Indiana, United States

    Notes:

    Frances is listed as being born in 1855 in the 1860 Census, she is also listed with the spelling of her name as Francis E. I about imagine that it was supposed to be like all others when under a year and be 5/12.
    In the 1870 Census she is listed as being born in 1861. Althought find a grave has Frances's middle name as Eleanor, I have not found documented proof of this and it is not on the grave stone either so I will leave her middle name as E until i find the proof.

    Frances married Samuel L. Griffith on 28 Dec 1878 in Whitley County, Indiana, United States. Samuel (son of John Griffith and Margaret Ayle) was born on 28 Dec 1857 in Indiana, United States; died on 6 Mar 1919 in Bourbon, Marshall, Indiana, United States; was buried on 10 Mar 1919 in Bourbon, Marshall, Indiana, United States.

    • Residence: 17 Jul 1860, Richland Township, Whitley, Indiana, United States
    • Residence: 6 Jul 1870, Larwill, Whitley, Indiana, United States
    • Residence: 1880, Richland Township, Whitley, Indiana, United States
    • Residence: 13 Jun 1900, Richland Township, Whitley, Indiana, United States
    • Cemetery: 12 Sep 1907, Richland Center Cemetery, Larwill, Whitley, Indiana, United States

    Notes:

    Although the death certificate states Henry was born in Whitley County, Indiana this is incorrect considering all other records indicate Ohio.
    The 1900 Census states that Henry was born in February of 1837 whereas his death certificate states September 1, 1837. On his tombstone it has him being 70 years, 7 months and 8 days. Usually I go with the death certificate, however with both the 1900 census and find a grave both saying February I am going with that birth date instead of what is on the death certificate.

    Henry married Drinda "Rinda" Wolford on 22 Jan 1857 in Whitley County, Indiana, United States. Drinda was born in 1833 in Ohio, United States; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 3.  Drinda "Rinda" Wolford was born in 1833 in Ohio, United States; and died.

    • Residence: 6 Jul 1870, Larwill, Whitley, Indiana, United States
    • Residence: 1880, Richland Township, Whitley, Indiana, United States

    Notes:

    Drinda is listed as being born in 1831 in the 1870 Census, the 1880 Census has her being born in 1832

    Notes:

    Married:
    Although the actual record states that the Marriage License took place on January 27, 1857 I find this to be highly unlikely. They were married on January 22, 1857 so I believe that the 7 is supposed to be a 1.
