Beryl Miller household, 1940, Jay County, Indiana

Located the 1940 census record of the Beryl Miller household in Jay County, Indiana.  Beryl's wife, Inez, was my paternal 5th cousin once removed.  Our common ancestor was Steffan Petry.  Inez was the daughter of William Stevenson Ashcraft and Blanche Bertha Lewis.

1940 U.S. census, Jay County, Indiana, population schedule, Bearcreek Township, enumeration district (ED) 38-2, SD 5, sheet 8A, household 153, ; digital images, Ancestry.com (www.ancestry.com : accessed 26 December 2016); National Archives, Washington, D.C..

At the time of the enumeration, Beryl and his wife were living in Bearcreek Township.  Beryl owned his home and the value was listed at $1200. Beryl was 44 years old and born in Indiana.  His wife, Inez, was 41 years old and also born in Indiana.  In 1935, they were living in the same place.

The record shows that Beryl had completed 1 year of college and that Inez had completed 2 years of college.  Beryl's occupation was listed as a farmer, and no occupation was listed for Inez.

Also listed in the household were son Jimmie, age 13, born in Indiana and had competed the 7th grade, and Nancy, age 8, born in Indiana and had completed the 2nd grade.

According to my database, Beryl & Inez had two additional children not with them in 1940 - Marilyn and Betty.

If you have any additional information or are connected to this family, I'd love to hear from you.

Exploratory Data Analysis: Blaine Pearl Wehrly (1884-1966)

Blaine Pearle Wehrly (1884-1966) was my paternal great-granduncle.  What follows is an exploratory analysis of the biographical data I have discovered about him.


1. Vital Records

     1.1. Birth Certificate

          Blaine was born August 31, 1884 in Madison Township, Jay County, Indiana¹.  The State of Indiana did not require state-wide registrations of birth until after 1907.  Jay County, Indiana has birth records from 1882.  Will add obtaining a copy to my "to-do" list for my next research trip.

          1.1.1. Birth Notice in Newspaper

               If Blaine's birth was announced in the local newspaper, it has been lost to history.  The Jay County Public Library has newspapers from the late 1880s.  The holdings of the Indiana State Library in Indianapolis do not indicate any newspapers of the time period.

          1.1.2. Bible Record

               I am not aware of any surviving Bible record of the Wehrly family.  Will continue to reach out to extended family in hopes that one does exist.

          1.1.3. Baptismal Record

               I am not aware of any baptismal record for Blaine, nor the church affiliation of the Wehrly's.

          1.1.4. Adoption Record

               There is no indication that Blaine was adopted.

     1.2. Marriage License

          Blaine married Ermina Gladys Ashcraft on November 28, 1909^1,2, probably in Jay County, Indiana.  I do not yet have a copy of their marriage license.  Will add this to my list of "to-do" items for my next research trip.

          1.2.1 Marriage Notice in Newspaper

               Will need to search contemporary newspaper accounts to see if mention was made of Blaine and Gladys' nuptials.

          1.2.2. Anniversary Notice

               Blaine and Gladys' 25th wedding anniversary would have been November 28, 1934 and their 50th anniversary would have been November 28, 1959.  Will need to search contemporary newspaper accounts to see if any mention was made of anniversary celebrations.

          1.2.3. Divorce Decree

               There is no indication that Blaine and Gladys were divorced, but a search of Jay County, Indiana court records needs to be done.

     1.3. Death Certificate

          Blaine died February 27, 1966¹, probably in Jay County, Indiana.  I do not have a copy of his death certificate.  Will add this to my list of "to-do" items for my next research trip.

          1.3.1. Obituary in Newspaper

               Will need to check local newspapers in Jay County, Indiana to see if Blaine's obituary was mentioned.  Will add this to my list of "to-do" items for my next research trip.

          1.3.2. Funeral Home Records

               Once I've obtained his obituary, I might be able to identify the funeral home that handled the arrangements and then contact them to see if they have any records.

          1.3.3. Tombstone Photograph

               Blaine's tombstone in the Green Park Cemetery in Portland, Jay County, Indiana³ has been photographed.  A link to his memorial page at FindAGrave is located here.

          The State of Indiana conducted state census in 1853, 1857, 1871, 1883, 1889, 1901, 1913 and 1921.  These, however, were merely for the purposes of legislative apportionment.

     2.3. Agricultural Census Records

          I have not yet investigated these types of records to see what light they might shed on the Wehrly farm.

3. Military Records

     3.1. Draft Registration

          On September 12, 1917, Blaine registered with the Selective Service in Butler County, Ohio⁹ during World War I.  He was 34 years old and living at 102 Ross in Hamilton, Ohio.  His birthdate was listed as August 31, 1884.

          Not applicable.

          Plat maps and county maps for Jay County, Indiana will need to be researched.  Will contact the local historical society to see what maps they  might have in their collection.

5. Supplemental Records

     Supplemental records available for research on Blaine include city/county directories, court records and will and probate records.  Will add these to my list of "to-do" items for my next research trip.
