1863 March 15. Independence [Warren Co., IN, next north of Fountain Co.]. I expect you have heard before this that GRIFFIN JONES has lost his wife. He wanted one of us girls to go and keep house for him this summer but I believe he has broke up housekeeping and is going to travel in Ill with an agency for the insurance company. --excerpt from a letter written by REBECCA ANN DAWSON to her great-uncle, JOEL L.
