According to Clinton Cnty (IN) marriage record, Jennie's place of residence at the time of her marriage was Monroe, OH, and Charles resided in Colfax, IN.

      Jennie Hiteshue was born on Oct 18, 1868 at Taneytown, Carroll County, Maryland; The FHL does not have any 1868 BRs for Carroll County, MD but we could write for civil birth record.

Record of Marriage in Clinton Cnty, State of Indiana, says that Jennie was born in Monroe, OH rather than in "Terrytown, MD"; also claims that "age next birthday" at time of marriage was 19 rather than 15. We have since found (1870 & 1880 U.S. Censuses) that Taneytown, MD is indeed the birthplace of Amelia, indicating that the MR is in error.

The Lafayette, IN newspaper obit says that Amelia was born in "Tarrytown" (state unnamed), but the real name of her birthplace is "Taneytown" (Carroll Cnty, MD). She was the daughter of Calvin Merhl Hiteshue and Leah Margaret staub. Jennie Hiteshue was baptized on Jun 3, 1870 at Middletown, Frederick County, Maryland; Christened in the Evangelical Lutheran Church. No parents listed.

The obit from Lafayette, IN claims that Charles & Amelia Jane were married on 23 Dec 1883 rather than on 27 Dec. Jennie Hiteshue died on Sep 24, 1933 at Linden, Montgomery County, Indiana, at age 64; NOTE: No death record for Amelia Jane exists at the Montgomery Cnty (Crawfordsville, IN) Public Health Dept -- Bob & Judy Kryter checked (June 1997) the DRs there twice w/ no success.

Died at her home in Linden, IN. Buried in Linden cemetery.

Lou Vail notes give date of death as Sept 24; Blanche Myers' bible claims death was on Sept 21, 1933, but this does NOT agree with obituary in Crawfordsville newspaper.

From obituary: "Amelia Jane had been in failing health for several years, with complications, but her sudden death was unexpected."

The following was extracted from the cited Crawfordsville obituary:

"Surviving siblings include: a sister, Mrs. Jessie Wagner, of Monroe, OH and two brothers, Russell & Milton Hiteschue of Monroe, OH."
