Looking for information on Ralph Clark born Feb 6, 1911 Green County, Indiana. His parents were: George Clark and Junie Yarnell --
nothing known about them. They were said to have died young, so Ralph was raised/adopted by Dr. Tilghman Rawley. Ralph married
Leona Rankin. They had three children and were VERY poor. When Ralph went to the service, Leona finally gave the children up for
adoption. (odd, two generations, huh?) Ralph and Leona divorced. He raised a large family and was happily married in Tacoma,
Washington. Would like to know about the next generation back -- above George and Junie.

I am trying to make a connection between my great, great, great grandfather, Mordicai Milton BATSON/BATTSON (b. 1819), and a
Mordecai BATSON/BATTSON that lived in Sullivan County, Indiana in the 1820s. This Mordecai BATSON was born in Virginia in 1755.
He served in the 12th Virgina Regiment from 1776 until 1778. He was married to a Rachel MARNEY (1760-1844). They lived in what
is now West Virginia until the late 1790s. They then moved to Bourbon County, Kentucky and lived there until 1820. They then
moved to Sullivan County, Indiana, Mordecai's name appears in the 1820 Sullivan County census. He died in 1829 in Sullivan County.
In the 1830 census Rachel doesn't appear to have a seperate household, a Jonathan BATSON is listed in Sullivan County only. Anyone
that could give me information I would appeciate it.
