Bonnie,
Thank you for responding to my message!You have been so helpful.You did find "my" Napolean and have provided me with some add'l info!
No, unfortunately I don't know Daniel Austin's wife's name (I always thought Darriel was a strange name.The person who originally wrote down that information many years ago had terrible handwriting, so I'll bet it's Daniel.)His father's name was Thornan (or, considering the bad handwriting, something close to that. :-).Don't know his mother's name.
I also don't have record of any siblings of Napoleon.I did learn from you that Mary P. Haggard was obviously his second wife.They are married by the 1880 Soundex for Marion Co., IN.Although "Aldolphus 9" should read "Eudolphia 9" (easy to see how that happened).I'm sure that's her.She was born in 1871 and the names are so similar.
Who is Bob Crosley?Sorry to be ignorant, but I am just starting to trace my genealogy and have a lot to learn.I could add to his information because I do have Daniel Austin's father's name (Thornan).
