Dr. Albert S. Faulkner

Milk sickness [Tremetol Poisoning - passed by ingesting milk from Snakeroot poisoned animals] is said to be prevalent at Hillsboro. Dr. Faulkner is one of the victims, so it can't be all imaginative.

Note: in 1900 Census Cain Twp, Fountain Co IN it lists Physician (#70) Alfred S. Faulkner b April 1870 marr 5 years KY KY KY

wife Chessie Jan 1872 3 ch 1 living KY KY KY Dressmaker & daughter Kenneth (?) Oct 1896 KY KY KY so obviously they were newcomers to the community, and sadly, it didn't go well :( But, here's THE REST OF THE STORY -- he is found in the next 3 censuses in Hillsboro then in 1920 in Waynetown. First wife died in Oct 1911 - he married #2 Estella Shepherd. He died in Montgomery County, 1946 but to date, I've not gotten his obituary to see where he's buried (can't find on findagrave.com either -- but DO KNOW THAT THE WAVELAND INDEPENDENT falsley or unknowingly anyway gave his death at the wrong time.
