From SUSERQ@aol.com I realized, when I received your second e-mail, that I had forgotten to mention that William and Samuel are brothers. Samuel's death listing says his parents are Joseph Plummer and Sarah McMurray. The artcle on William Plummer in the Whitley history said William's parents were Joseph and Sarah McMurray. I guess if Delilah is a sibling and you are from her line, that makes us cousins of some sort. There is a Steve Hively married to Rita Mullendore. Rita's mother is Eva Plummer who is my grandfather's sister. I guess folks in Whitley are somewhat interchangable when it comes to those old pioneer families. Susie

Good Evening Bill!
Glad to know that you must be feeling better and being active.
Thanks for the detailed info. I will be in Washington, D.C. for a few
days. When I return, I will try to find the connection with DELILAH PLUMMER.
Already, I noted that William Plummer mentioned is from my branch of North
Carolina Plummer (Francis Plummer line.) It may take some time to digest all
of the data. I think I can help.

Hi Bill!
I am taking just part of the information to digest. While I have not
located Delilah Plummer, she certainly must fit into the families I have
listed. William Plummer #8120 (my #) appears to be from my line, namely,
Moses Plummer (Francis Plummer line of Newbury,MA, founder 1635) who settled
in Bladen Co., Colony of NC about 1729. Williams father, Joseph Plummer, mvd
to Rutherford (now Cleveland Co), about 1812. Here are some notes:

Good Morning Donald Gladeless!
I finally completed a list of Plummers who settled and lived in Whitley
County, Indiana, based on the details you furnished and my own records. In
fact William Plummer, born in Rutherford (now Cleveland County), NC, is part
of my Francis Plummer line. (Newbury, MA Colony 1635).
Please let me know if this helps and if you have anything to add
pertaining to the Plummer family. Surely Deliah Plummer fits into one of
these Plummer families. It could be that she has a double first name.
Thanks for your help. Leonard L. Plummer, 12121 Monrovia St, Overland
