Dimmit/Brockus/Schreiner PA and White Co.
Looking for a Litecia/Leticia Dimmit/Dimit, b. abt. 1828 in Allegheny Co. PA, m. George Schriner/Schreiner between 1851-1853 in Allegheny. They moved to White Co. IN between 1854-1856.
George and Litecia/Leticia had 4 children,
George, b. 1854 in PA
Lavina, b. 1856 in White Co. IN
Samuel, b. 1858 in White Co. IN
John, b. 1860-61 in White Co. IN
Litecia/Leticia disappears after the 1860 Census, in which she is living in White Co. Jackson Twp. IN with George and 3 of the children. George shows up remarried to a Nancy Brockus on Dec. 7, 1865 in White Co. Nancy had previously been the widow of Elias Brockus who died in 1859. George and Nancy show up in the 1870 Census in White Co., with 2 children I presume to be hers for her 1st marriage,
Sarah E. Brockus, b. 1856 in IN.
Elias W. Brockus, b. 1858 in IN.
George's children are living with different families around White Co. at this time. Samuel is living with the John York family next door to George and Nancy, and John is living with the Peter Carnahan family.
Nancy Brockus Schriner/Schreiner dies in 1880, and George Schriner/Schreiner is found in the 1880 Census,living in White Co. with Joseph and Elizabeth Dimmit, and their daughter Emma.
Does anyone have information on all of these families? Do these families stem from the Dimmit/ Brockus link of Sophia Dimmit and John Brockus? I'm also especially interested in knowing more about this Litecia/Leticia Dimmit, she is my GGGrandmother. Need info. on her parents and siblings, as well as her death date and place of burial, which I am assuming to be White Co. or surounding counties. Thank you in advance!
