The problem seems to be there are far too many Abrahams! Since the last posting I have found Abraham Amarine who married Catherine Colbert in 1828 Champaign Co. This could be were my Colbert got his name!?!
I found marriage record of Colbert Amrine marrying Eliza McGough in 1850 Miami Co. and I also have a Fredrick Amarine who married Maria Mercer in 1847 Miami Co. There are also marriage listings for Abraham & Mary Harvey 1849, Abram & Mary McFadden 1843, Elizabeth C. & James T. Caldwell 1853, Miss Achea & William Morehead 1865, Valentine & Charlotte Dolton 1850 and Valentine & Amanda Davis 1865. All of this marriages took place in Miami Co. aand according to the 1850 census all the Amrine men folk lived in Washington Township.
The census listing for Washington Township 1850 shows Colbert (22) and Elizabeth (17)Amrine with no children living close to Fredrick (25) and Marriah (24)Amrine with children Mary A. (2) and John W. (5 mo.) Unfortunatly I didn't look up the others, I believe they are the same family but have no way of proving it. My "Colbert Amerine" seems to be lost and I have not had any success with anyone knowing who he is. I would love ANY help I can get on this family.
