    Notes:

    One reference says DeWitt was born in Vanderburgh County, Indiana, and that he died in Oakland City, Indiana.

    DeWitt's wife was Sarah Elizabeth Elwyn. Sarah's mother died when Sarah was five so she was taken into the home of James T. Elwyn, her half brother. Sarah kept house for James after his wife died. James and Sarah took DeWitt in as a boarder when he was a student at Oakland City College. Sarah and DeWitt later were married.

    DeWitt moved from Gondola to Snakey Point, and then to Oakland City, Indiana.

Generation: 4

  1. 8.  Charles Monroe was born about 1823 in Staser, Vanderberg Co., Indiana, USA (son of Joshua Monroe and Julia Almira Fairchild); died on 3 Dec 1873 in Haubstadt, Gibson Co., Indiana, USA; was buried in Staser Cem., Scott Twp., Vanderburgh Co., Indiana.

    Notes:

    A history of Gibson County reports his birth in 1820, but census records indicate that Charles was born about 1823.

    Charles' parents settled in Vanderburgh County, Illinois around 1821. Family lore says that they came from Cayuga County, New York, but that has not been verified. They died when Charles was 4 months old and he is said to have been raised in Vanderburgh County by John and Christen (Margaret Clinton) Staser who were immigrants from Germany. At age 17, he began trading on the Ohio river (Flatboat) dealing in chickens but lost his money in an unfortunate business deal.

    He married first in 1841 and again in 1843, and settled down into the life of a farmer. In 1848, he bought 40 acres in Vanderburgh County, Indiana, and bought another 40 acres in 1851 in Scott Township, Vanderburgh County.

    In 1850, Charles (possibly known as Tom Charles or Thomas Charles) was a farmer with $400 in property living with his family in Scott, Indiana.

    Different references are in conflict about his children. One reference says he died in 1859 in Scott Township, Vanderburgh County, Indiana. The Miller membership application says he may have been born in Kentucky, and that his wife, Nancy, was born in Nov 1859.
