McKEE CEMETERY
This abandoned burying ground is on the old Alonzo Sheets (more recently
Joseph Richards) farm, on 250N about one and three-tenths mile west of 250N
& 400W, in Rochester Township, Fulton County, Indiana.
It is at the very back of a field about two city blocks north of the road.
Stones were read as found, not in any rows.

grave marker. Census records indicate that he was a miller.]
(----), -----, d. Sep 2, --------ae 72y-3----
[NOTE: This is the lower left part of the marker, and all that remains. It
probably is a part of the stone, which was reported by Manitou Chapter DAR,
Genealogical Survey, Fulton Co Ind Cemeteries, 1935: Anthony McKee, d. Sep 22,
1868, ae 73y-3m-21d.
Anthony W. McKee was born in Penn or Ohio, and is said to have been in the War
of 1812. He was born June 1, 1795. He married Nancy Agnew, and they were
residents of Shelby Co Ind by ca.1834; and in Fulton Co Ind by 1850, residents
of Rochester Twp with six children. He was living with Russell McKee (probably
his son) in 1860, age 64 years.
Children of Anthony W. and Nancy (Agnew) McKee included: (1) Mary A. b.ca.1817
Ohio, m. by 1836, Shelby Co Ind, James Keely (1812-1892); (2) Isaac b.ca.1830
Ohio; (3) Riley G. b.ca.1834 Ind, m. 1855 Mary A. Thurston; (4) Phebe b.ca.1835
Ind; (5) William b.ca.1837 Ind; (6) James 1838-1859; (7) Martin b.ca.1843 Ind.
Two other McKee families, living in Rochester Twp in 1850, near the Anthony W.
McKee household, and who were probably related, were: (1) David A. McKee b.1816
Ohio, identified as a "miller" in 1860 census, m. (by 1841) Sarah A.,
and it was this family, with whom Reubin Stroup resided in 1850. (2) Russell
McKee b.ca.1820 Ohio, m. Frances (-----) (by 1847), and their household in 1860
included Anthony McKee (ae 64).
Jesse McKee, b.ca.1830 Ohio, and Brant McKee b.1832 Ohio, wre of Union Twp in
1850. Jesse was probably the 40 yr invalid (b.Ohio) living with William McKee in
Rochester Twp in 1870, & was probably his brother. Brant McKee m. Catharine
McCoy 1855, and they resided in Union Twp, later removing to Rochester Twp by
1870 where he died in 1875, and was buried in the McKee cemetery (see below).
(----), -------- ae 56y-3m-21d ?
[NOTE: The lower half of the stone is all that remains. This must be the
above-mentioned stone. Manitou Chapter D.A.R., Genealogical Survey, Fulton
County, Indiana Cemeteries,
1935 reveals: David A. McKee, d. Feb 20, 1873, ae 56y-3m-25d. He resided in
Rochester 1860, in Newcastle Twp in 1870, and his widow was living in
Bloomingsburg, Newcastle Twp in 1880.]
STROUP, Reuben, son of J. & M., d. Dec 14, 1853, ae 16y-5d
[NOTE: There is no clear certainty as to the names of the parents of Reuben
Strout. The name is spelled several ways: Stroup, Stroub, Straub, Stroab and
Strobe.
Indiana Census 1840, includes: Samuel Stroup, in Elkhart Co. Barnhart's History
of Fulton Co Ind, p. 32, states that Samuel Stroub was an early settler of Wayne
Twp., Fulton Co., in 1840. Fulton Co Ind Early Tract Book, shows that Samuel
Stroab of Cass Co Ind purchased land in Wayne Twp, 1841. Also Fulton Co Ind
Commissioners Record "A", includes the name of Samuel Stroub in the
list of Petit Jurors for Sept. Term 1843. And lastly, concerning the estate of
Samuel Stroub, Admr., Jacob Shafer, was appt'd Sept. 29, 1849, and Final Report
was accepted July Term 1854 (Jean C. & Wendell C. Tombaugh, Fulton Co Ind
Probate Docket "A", 1836-1856).
Martha Stroub, b.ca.1814 Penn, might have been the mother of Reuben Stroup.
Obviously, Martha first m. a Stroup, and next Spencer Gill Dec. 25, 1849.
Spencer Gill was a resident of Ripley Co Ind in 1840 (Census; also seeFulton Co
Ind M.R.) Spencer Gill and his wife, Martha, his four children, and her son
Silas V. Stroub (ae 3yr) were residents of Fulton Co Ind, Wayne Twp, in 1850
Census. The Fulton Co Ind Census 1860, reflects still a third marriage for
Martha, and Fulton Co Ind M.R. indicate that on Nov. 15, 1857, Martha Gill m.
Samuel Stubbs.
Samuel and Elias Stubb and Joseph Stroup were all residents of Shelby Co Ind in
1840, and were perhaps acquainted before coming to Fulton Co.
Samuel Stubbs, 1814-1889 (Fulton Co Ind Cem, Union Twp) and his 2nd wife,
Martha, his four children, and her three children: Silas M. Stroub (ae 14yr),
Albert A. Stroub (ae 11yr), and Mary Gill (ae 7yr), residents of Wayne Twp,
Fulton Co Ind (Census 1860)
Fulton Co Ind Guardianship Index indicates that guardianship papers were filed
on April 5, 1855, for Silas Strobe; final report date April 19, 1866. Silas M.
Stroub was a Pvt Co A, 155 Regt Ind, in the Civil War (Peattie, History of
Fulton Co Ind, p. 12)

BURTON CEMETERY
The Burton Cemetery is located northwest of Rochester, on the north side of
200N, between 200W and 300W.
Rows run north and south; rows are numbered from west to east; stones read from
south to north.
Readings made in 1974.
Row 1
BURTON, Barbara, d. Mar 3, 1852 (no age or b.d., loose stone)
[NOTE: This is probably the Barbara A., ae 24 [b.ca.1826] wife of James,
householders, Rochester Twp., in 1850, with one four year old son, Leonard L. By
1860, James Burton had remarried to Mariah (-----), ae 37, and there were other
children. W. C. & J. C. Tombaugh, Fulton Co., Ind. 1850 and 1860 Census)
BURTON, John, d. Mar 13, 1848

SMITH, Jesse, d. Sep 9, 1886, ae 43y
SMITH, Esther, wife of E., July 15, 1819 - Nov 13, 1886
(above 2 are matching markers)
[NOTE: Esther, third wife of Elias Smith, was b. in N.Y., and previously m. to
(-----) Baldwin. The date of her m. to Elias Smith does not appear in Fulton Co
Ind M.R., but would have occurred between 1870 and 1880. The Fulton Co Ind
Census 1880, Union Twp, reflects that Esther Smith a widow aged 60 years, with
Frank Baldwin (ae 20) her son, and Emma McKee (14) a boarder, were residents of
that twp.
Elias probably came to Fulton Co soon after 1850, and his first wife died soon
after that (see above). He next m., July 31, 1853, Hannah Blodget (Fulton Co Ind
M.R.), and they were householders of Rochester Twp, this county, in 1860
(Census), with four of the children of Elias & Thirzy Smith: Jesse, William,
Elizabeth, and Mary; and two children of Elias & Hannah: Oliver & John
W. Smith.
Elias Smith, ae 60, was a householder of Rochester Twp in 1870. The 1870 Census
does not include his wife, but there were four children: Jesse, Mary, Oliver,
and an eight year old Martha. His third marriage occurred sometime after the
1870 census, to Esther Smith.]

Twp. Her family included: John (42 b.Ky), Emely (32, b.Ind), Amos (30,b.Ind),

ELIZABETH LINDSEY GRAVE
LINDSEY/LINDSAY, Elizabeth, 1796-1832, ae 36y
The Evening Sentinel, Rochester, Indiana, Wednesday, September 20, 1899,
reports that the oldest graveyard used by white people of the county was just
east of the "waterworks standpipe" and that there were about thirty
graves there. Several of the stones had the date of 1832, one of which was
Elizabeth Lindsay.
Elizabeth, daughter of William Shields who died in Jennings County, Indiana in
1824, married John Lindsey. John Lindsey came to Fulton County, Indiana, in 1827
from Carroll County, Indiana, with Gen. Samuel Milroy and others of that county,
to build a mill, south of the present dam location at the outlet and upon the
banks of Lake Manitou. The Lindsey home, a grist mill, blacksmith shop, trading
post and other homes were located in the little settlement called
"Tiptonville." John Lindsey became the first blacksmith, serving as
such until around 1838.
Elizabeth (Shields) Lindsey appears to have come to Fulton County at a later
date, perhaps around 1830. An account by William A. Ward around 1905, indicates
that John Lindsey, his wife and two or three children, came to Rochester in 1831
by covered wagon, from some point in Ohio. Another account indicates that
Elizabeth Lindsey came with her sister, Rhoda (wife of Nathan Rose, the miller),
and two brothers, William J. Shields and Jesse Shields. Mrs. Lindsey and Mrs.
Rose were the first white women residents of Fulton County, Indiana. (Fulton
County, IN, Historical Society Quarterlies, 1964-1973; also Elia W. Peattie,
