My great grandmother Mary Deal was born in Illinois and married William J Nugent on Aug 19, 1878 in Shelby County, Indiana.
Their nine children were: Gertrude Phoebe Lilly B. born July 1879 Ollie E. born July 1882 Rhoda A. was born November 24, 1884 and married Wilson Wright August 2, 1905 Bertha Louise born December 5, 1886 and married William Wright December 8,1905 and then many years later, Frank Weintraut Viola G. born October, 1894 Edna O. was born November 15, 1895 and married William Nave May 1, 1914 Savilla Pearl born June 1892 James H.

Bertha Louise Nugent in Spencer, Indiana Summer of 1962, about 76 years of age.
My ancestors were Nugents, Weintrauts, Skirvin, Deals, Driscolls and Brummage. They came from many states including, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky.
Among these ancestors were Shawnee, Cherokee and Wyandot Indians and my European ancestry is Irish, Scottish and Prussian.
My mother Lois Ione Vermillion and me.
Finding my ancestors has been a journey filled with wonder and reward. Yet, the discovery of their history and individual stories has been largely due to several outside factors.
I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to the extensive genealogy world that now exists on the Internet, the generosity of my relatives and the kindness of a few absolute strangers.
