Thomas Jefferson Bucher (1858-1938), Jay County, Indiana

Working on filling in some gaps in my database by utilizing the "Indiana Marriages, 1811-1959" database at Familysearch.org to see what updates and corrections I could find.

Thomas Jefferson Bucher (1858-1938) was the son of John B. Bucher and Catherine Wehrly.  His marriage on February 27, 1881 in Jay County, Indiana to Louisa Bollinger was found in the database.  Prior to this find, I didn't have the date or place of their marriage.

"Indiana, Marriages, 1811-1959," index and images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/V6RR-KNT : accessed 23 Nov 2013), Thomas Bucher and Louiza Bolinger, 1881.
Thomas was my paternal 1st cousin 3 times removed.  Our common ancestors were Johannes Wehrly and Barbara Petry.  Thomas and Louise had one son.  Thomas died October 31, 1938.

The Anna Groendyke (1866-1938) was my paternal 2nd cousin 3 times removed on the Petry side, she had married Perry Groendyke, my maternal 3rd great granduncle.

The Walter Main Groendyek (1894-1943) was Perry's son and Anna's stepson.  his death certificate tells how he fractured his skull in an accidental fall down some stairs.  

The James Wilson Lambertson (1857-1946) was my maternal first cousin 4 times removed.  I didn't know where he was buried, and also the name of son Ora was new to me.  I didn't know James had a half-brother, which indicates that his mother remarried after his father's death, might be why couldn't find her in later census records.
