• Notes

  1870-census for Harrison township (Bluffton post office), Wells, Indiana on the 22nd of June 1870, has Dillman Ewing Shoemaker, age 4, with mother Lydia Shoemaker, age 25, born in Ohio, keeping house, and stepfather farmer Warren K. Shoemaker, age 27, born in Ohio. On the same page we find George Heckedorn age 53, Joseph Heckedorn age 58 and wife Elizabeth Heckedorn age 60, all born in Pennsylvania. Is this Lydias father, uncle and aunt, or just an odd coincidence? Were George and Mary Ann divorced? 1880 census for Harrison, Wells, Indiana says Warren Shoemaker is Dillmonds stepfather. Lydia Heckathorn Ewing Shoemaker has a marker next to Warren Kelly Shoemaker and his second wife in Fairview Cemetery, Bluffton.
