1815 Clark County Estray Book Entry:

Henry Ashebrannah; Date: 7 Dec 1815; Place: Clark County, IN; Estray Book: 1801-1817. Some early settlers didn't use fences to confine their livestock. County books were kept by the County Clerks Office to record the finding of stray animals. Any person who found a stray would be required to advertise their stray finding within the neighborhood where in the stray found. When no claim was made upon the stray they would make an oath before the justice of the peace. The oath made usually indicated that an animal with certain markings had been taken up. The justice would then issue a warrent for three disinterested householders to make an appraisal. After the appraisals were made the entry was made into the County Estray Book.

  • Note: On face value this census appeared to be of another family. Not withstanding the obvious, I am certain that this William H is the same William H who appeared in the 1870 census in Floyd County. All of the 3 older children match the the 1870 census. No other censuses before or after this 1880 census can be found matching this family in Jennings County. The 1876 marriage record found in Crawford County is consistent with this belief, and supports the data in the 1880 census. I do find it odd that there was no mention made in my grandfather's notes about his grandfather's [William H] second marriage. See Charles Ashabranner Family Papers for comparison.

Depository Source: Ancestry.com; Image: 252;
Searched Name: Edward Arterburnn Note: I read the name as Edward Ashabraner. This was a very difficult census page to read. Most people would not have caught this mistake in a census reading. I have had the fortunate experience in writing my name over and over again and understood what to look for in the writing pattern of this surname. I spent many hours looking for this page and tried several techniques in narrowing my search to find this family. Supporting this assertion is the match in the family construction and data which also fits the 1910 and 1930 census readings for this family. Good thing there weren't any new or missing family members.;

Charles Ashabranner Family Papers; Compiled/Organized by: Charles E Ashabraner; Compiled by: Charles E Ashabraner [c.1920s]

  • This is a collection of family history notes and letters gathered and researched by Charles E Ashabraner. I transcribed these hanwritten documents, organized them, and annotated them with my comments in blue type. The original start date for this collection is not stated on any of the documents, but speculation based on certain events referanced might sugest sometime in the 1920s. A few updates were added as time went on.
