David Redman was born in the UK 11 Dec 1909. Emigrated with family 1820. From Posey County Documented History 1815-1900 he died in 1868. However, I can find no death record on the ancestry sites I visited. I also have an extract of a copy from a Library in Indiana of an article in The Courier 10 October 1882 given by his son Joel. He alleges his step mother, Elizabeth Davis who was David's fourth wife married 1868, told him his father was poisoned by her son Jake Davis, Joel confronted Jake who admitted the deed and shot and killed him and served 6 years of a 10 year sentence. I have contacted libraries in Indiana but nothing has been forthcoming as yet.
That is the background. I have posted on the Redman family in U.S in 2013 when I started here and 2015, but to add links I feel would cloud the issue as at present my sole focus is on David no other family members. In trying to be brief I have probably omitted facts about David that may or may not be relevant, for which I apologise.
I feel sure this would have been reported somewhere, or maybe a coroners report but I am at a loss as to where to look. Being in the U.K makes this more difficult. Any suggestions would be gratefully received or maybe someone from Indiana visits this Board.
