Just saw your inquiry while browsing.My Luce connection is through Luce family in Wabash, Wayne, and Rush counties in Indiana.My great-grandmother was Frances Jane Luce, who married John A Oswalt in Wabash County 15 Dec 1867.She was born in Wabash Co, daughter of Elemander Fowler Luce and Mary Stancliff.Elemander was born in Wayne Co, son of Jonathan Luce (born in PA.Elemander married Lorancy Fowler in Rush Co, IN.Elemander enlisted in the Civil War from Wabash County and returned there for the rest of his life after the war.His ancestors are from PA, Roxbury, NJ; Long Island, NY; and Martha's Vinyard, Mass.Contact me if you want more on this branch.
