Cardinale
uncles, twins born approximately on Jan 24, 1909 and living in South Bend,
Indiana when they became orphans. They became orphans in 1913 at the age of 4
1/2. At that time, they disappeared from any and all records.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Their family surname is misspelled on the 1910 census as
Connors. Their actual names are Charles and Walter Connars. The father's name
is John C. Connars, and the mother is Emma Clifford. I have not been able to
find a birth certificate for either one.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is what I know about the twins:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. They were born in Kankakee, Illinois around 1-24-1909. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. They were living in South Bend Indiana in 1913. They were
four 1/2 years old when their mother Emma Clifford died around the age of 30 of
a heart attack. According to a news article, she was found dead in a rocking
chair by one of her four kids.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">3. Very few people stepped up to adopt the twins, because
they were hyperactive<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">4. They were taken to Mishawaka orphanage located in South
Bend Indiana by Rev. Arthur G. Schafer, pastor of Lowell Heights Methodist
church. According to this library website, the church no longer exists and
there are no records from that time period.

The orphanage is described here and this is where they disappear from any
records. https://www.sbags.org/hospch.htm<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">5. The last known home that they had before they were taken
to the orphanage was located at: 511 N. Frances St. South Bend, In 46617. You
can see the home here:
https://www.realtor.com/.../511-N-Frances-St_South-Bend...<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The following article is about them. Sadly, their last name
is misspelled again as Connor. They are probably both dead now since they would
be 112 years old. But I would love to find possible offspring that they may
have had. Does anyone have any ideas where else I can look? Already found many
articles about their dad, their mom and their two sisters. Just cannot find
anything else about them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Published in the South Bend News-Times, November 20, 1913,
page 3. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is the transcription:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Wanted: A Home For Two Bright Boys—-Only trouble is They’re
Twins<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Where is the couple who will volunteer to be father and
mother to two lively, healthy and enterprising twin boys. Just four and
one-half years old?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Rev. Arthur G. Schafer, pastor of Lowell Heights Methodist
church, is trying to find the answer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The volunteer parents will need to have a full supply of a
real parents' patience, maybe a little more. For the twins are lively, everyone
who knows them agrees to that. Things will be "doing" in their
household from early morning until night.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A good many people have considered the twins and then
reconsidered. They might undertake to bring up one boy, they said, but a pair
of them— Well, you know, what one won't think of the other will.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Still, the boys need a home. They are nice little fellows,
pretty, and bright as two dollars, and lively. They look alike, but are
different enough that you would never mistake them for one individual. There
must be somebody somewhere who would want them both, reasoned Mr. Schafer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As a solution, he thought of publishing a want ad. It
appeared in the South Bend News-Times Tuesday evening, Wednesday edition. Mr.
and Mrs. Arthur Marville, living nine miles from South Bend, across the
Michigan line, volunteered to take the twins for a short time on probation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The twins in question are Charles and Walter Connor, the
sons of John C. Connor, living in the vicinity of Lowell Heights church. Their
mother died two weeks ago and since that time the boys have been looking for a
home. Mr. Schafer Is doing his best to help them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Their two sisters have been more fortunate in their quest; a
baby of nine months old and a little girl of 12 years are both provided for in
families in the neighborhood. Their father Is a laborer and has no one to look
after his home while he works, so It had to be broken up.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The little boys didn’t give up their old home without a
protest. The day their mother died they were taken to the home of a neighbor.
They accepted the situation willingly enough until night and then they wanted
to go back. They said so very emphatically, but their hosts thought it just a
whim. The boys kept on saying it until 11:30 o'clock, when they got their way.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It was their last night there. Since that time there has
been no home to go to. Some of the neighbors have had them for two or three
days each, but in the end they all agreed that two boys are a good too many.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Finally Mr. Schafer took them to the orphanage at Mishawaka.
They are now waiting to begin their probation with Mr. and Mrs. Arthur
Marville. The twins' father is employed at the Notre Dame University farm. The
family came here from the South a year ago after stops of various lengths along
the way. They were never very prosperous and the present unhappy circumstances
has left them almost destitute.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The mother was one of the quiet, uncomplaining sort, who
carried her burden patiently while she could and then lay down and died. Since
her last baby came she could not rally the strength to go on.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sometimes Went Hungry.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And while their mother failed, the twins took care of
themselves. So long as they didn't worry her too much she let them alone.
Sometimes they were fed and sometimes they were hungry, but they always kept
pretty cheerful.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now they show a little evidence of the neglect that couldn't
be helped. They need a little brushing up and a little toning down. They need
someone to take care of them instead of having to take care of themselves. But
they are twins, of course, and they would like to go on being twins. They are
used to team work and would probably make quite a fuss if they were to be
separated. And two boys are a great many.<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><o:p></o:p></i></p>

far we've digitized about 23,000 images. It's been a stop and start kind of

with me before everything closed down in March 2020, so as time has allowed
I've been busy scanning and digitizing the pictures and records.</span></p>

of Harrison County, Indiana. He enlisted January 28, 1863, in Company D, 13th
Indiana Cavalry, at Corydon, Harrison County, Indiana. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>He lived In Mississippi and Texas after the war. He died
in Jones County, Texas, and is buried at Fort Phantom Hill. His monument lists
his initials and last name and is marked that he was a Civil War veteran.
Family oral tradition was that he was underage, lied about his age, and was a
substitute for another man. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>I have not been able to confirm that he was a substitute.
Several rosters also have an incorrect spelling showing Newbell instead of
Newbill. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Anyone researching the Joseph Frank Newbill family, or
Company D, 13th Indiana Cavalry, I would welcome contact, to share what little
information that I have. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

The Museum is working with Ball State to help better define the boundaries of one of the cemeteries used by the former Central State Hospital. Using ground penetrating radar, the Ball State staff will hopefully be able to identify number of grave shafts, locations of these shafts, and how big of an area the cemetery is.</div><div dir="auto" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> They will not be able to identify who is buried there by this method. That is being done through archival research by the Museum's staff. This project is part of a greater program of the Museum to offer some social justice to the former patients, return some of their humanity, and provide a better understanding of the history of those institutionalized at the facility. </div><div dir="auto" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> The building which houses the Indiana Medical History Museum was the pathology lab for the hospital. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has received grant funds from DHPA for restoration.</div><p> <img alt="Image may contain: sky, house, cloud and outdoor" src="https://scontent-ort2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/117774340_10158622004852710_1847902865198256751_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=NuCsB7ybI6UAX_MCRCJ&_nc_ht=scontent-ort2-1.xx&oh=717da12a23e746bc6abda366acbbe374&oe=5F62FD15" /></p>Ron Darrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04675179222220261494noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7972303867688718206.post-59600109434839785542020-08-19T16:46:00.001-04:002020-08-19T16:46:00.397-04:00Two New FamilySearch Resources For Hoosier Researchers<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The latest FamilySearch update shows the below two record collections that could be of great use to Indiana family historians. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLLoGLvRaNEmF8oh06-iBOQW9O0N4exWiI9NrNvl00Ynj2lBA7wswpG0BfFGxbKHNgG68oATTxQRl2bXLgK2KYogvtSH8rww6jAlxyIL-4xnGxVuGGo-S_Y8yN5fMiGD-xuU2m9ukvWv8/s1158/Harrison+Obits.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="115" data-original-width="1158" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLLoGLvRaNEmF8oh06-iBOQW9O0N4exWiI9NrNvl00Ynj2lBA7wswpG0BfFGxbKHNgG68oATTxQRl2bXLgK2KYogvtSH8rww6jAlxyIL-4xnGxVuGGo-S_Y8yN5fMiGD-xuU2m9ukvWv8/s640/Harrison+Obits.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR_0A0a84rwxJjTzVTHbNbwN0TJk3PeR_IlDfqU7XZlBYvL0M6ZDKB-WZ5SUKmQcEKlIX5dAmo928VxygyuIZDZzcbw3xBXVtwK00qKWbW793yhiaEGmIsyRv7lFQoIpZZUV7gX7lzsu0/s1154/USCT.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="169" data-original-width="1154" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR_0A0a84rwxJjTzVTHbNbwN0TJk3PeR_IlDfqU7XZlBYvL0M6ZDKB-WZ5SUKmQcEKlIX5dAmo928VxygyuIZDZzcbw3xBXVtwK00qKWbW793yhiaEGmIsyRv7lFQoIpZZUV7gX7lzsu0/s640/USCT.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> <p></p>Ron Darrahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04675179222220261494noreply@blogger.com0
