This record of the marriage of John W. Hartzell and Elizabeth A. Haley was located at the Jay County Historical Society in Portland, Indiana.

Elizabeth was the daughter of Sebastian and Lydia (Rader) Haley, and my first cousin four times removed.

I find it interesting that their nationality and race was referred to as being "German".

I do not know what the relationship was between the Stone and Haley family was.

Until I located this record, I had the marriage of John and Elizabeth as part of my unidentified Haleys in Jay County.  Now that I can locate her within the family group, I need to search for more information on their family.

Manner of Death: Natural

The above death certificate is for my paternal 2nd-great grandmother, Cora Belle (Metzner) Haley (1868-1955).  I obtained this record on my recent research trip into Jay County, Indiana.

Facts that I already knew included her death date and place and the date of birth.   Her residence shows Portland, but she was living in rural Madison Township at the time of her death according to her obituary.

Cora was married, and her spouse was Eli Weldon Haley (1866-1957).

The death certificate lists her father as Adam Metzner and mother as Clara Moulton, which corresponds to information I already had.  

The funeral was held at the Baird-Freeman funeral home in Portland.  The attending physician was S.M. Hammond.  The health department would not release a cause of death, but peeking over at the records I saw that carcinoma was listed.

The above death certificate is of my paternal 2nd-great grandfather, Eli Weldon Haley (1866-1957).  I obtained this certificate on my recent research trip into Jay County.

Facts that I already knew included the date of death and the place.  Though the certificate states the death address as simply Jay County, I know that he was living in Madison Township at the time, near Salamonia.  Interestingly, the residence address of Rural Route 3 Fort Recovery, Ohio shows how close this area is to the Ohio line.

Eli was widowed, his wife Cora Belle (Metzner) Haley having died in 1955.  His father is listed as George W. Haley and mother as Mary Jane Haley, with the notation of (Sherrick) as her maiden name.  This corresponds to facts I already knew about the family.  No places of birth are listed for his parents.

His burial date was listed as July 16, 1957 at Mt. Zion cemetery.  The funeral home was listed as the Baird funeral home of Portland.

The physician of record was S.M. Hammond, M.D.  The cause of death was not listed on this certificate.  The health department would not release the information.  Peeking over the books, I could see that the cause was heart related.
