This record of the marriage of Andrew Franklin Haley (1864-1937) and Emma Catherine Leonhard (1866-1925) was located at the Jay County Historical Society in Portland, Indiana.
Andrew was my paternal great-granduncle, son of George Washington and Mary Jane (Sherrick) Haley. The return show's Emma's father as "J.T. Leonhard", but I have it as John Philip Leonhard in my database.
The Haleys were members of the Evangelical Association church, but I'm not aware of any other connections with the minister, George Wolf.

This record of the marriage of Jacob Haley and Lydia J. May was located at the Jay County Historical Society in Portland, Indiana.
Though parts of the record were a bit hard to read in the copy, I was able to gain some information I didn't have before, particularly being able to connect Jacob with the family of Sebastian and Lydia (Rader) Haley. Before this, I had their marriage as an unidentified Haley in Jay County.
Another avenue of research is to find out if the bride connects with my Young family in Noble Township as well.

Dated at Wayne Twp. Jay Co., Ind this 21st day of July 1888.
This record of the marriage of Eli Weldon Haley (1866-1957) and Cora Belle Metzner (1868-1955) was located at the Jay County Historical Society in Portland, Indiana.
These were my paternal great-grandparents. Previously, I had located a copy of the marriage license, but not the return at the courthouse.
Though I don't have an exact location for the marriage, I speculate that it took place at the home of the bride. The Metzner family were residents of Wayne Township, Jay County, Indiana.
Witnesses listed to the marriage were the father of the groom, George W. Haley, and the father of the bride, John A. Metzner. I do not know of any connection with the minister, R. Dubs.

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.

Physician: S.M. Hammond, MD
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.
