Mary: Thanks so much. Being as Sarah, wife of Joseph Webb died so young, I am considering the possibility of Sarah and Joseph Webb being the parents of my GGGrandfather Elisha B. Webb, born in Greensburg, Decatur Co. Ind. in 1828. This is right at the time of Sarah's death in 1828. Speculation is that it might have during childbirth. Elisha does not appear in any census by himself or with any other Webb until 1850 over in Addison Twp. Shelby Co. Ind. along with, who is a brother of Joseph Webb, Abel Webb. After 1850 and his marriage, he seemed to have followed the Brothers, Abel and Joseph around through Ill., and Iowa.and finally ended up in Chariton Co. Mo.after the two brothers death. He followed a son of Abel's down into Chariton Co. I have looked at every Webb in the Decatur Co. area and Joseph and Abel seem to be the only ones I can find that would be possible parents of my Elisha.Joseph primarily. Thanks again and if you run across anything else I would appreciate it. Or if you have any questions let me know.
