Warren Co. Pike Twp. Indiana one Nimrod Beaver residing on the farm of J.H. McBroom, ill and dying. A record Fountain-Warren Co. Health Dept. shows a Nimrod Beaver Date of Death Jan. 22, 1892 of pneumonia. Seems to be one and the same person, but likely the wrong age given. Know of one child Ethel Beaver born 1886 who married Charles Melvin Gray in 1905. I acquired this info. and the info. that Nimrod Beaver is buried in Lyons cemetery Warren Co. Indiana and grateful for the help. It would be nice to get a pic. of the cemetery and grave and copies of any documents available. Thanks. There was a News clipping under the Title Death's Doings in a paper but which I have lost track of, which had a little information in it.
