My grandmother. Lula Alice Robbins Fortner was born, lived and died in Lawrence County (Bedford)IND. She was born 11/18/1894 and died 11/15/1998. She was buried at Crestview Memory Gardens in Bedford. She married Everett Rex Fortner and he was a minister for the Free Methodist Church in Bedford. He died in 1981 and was also buried at the same cemetery as my grandmother. I know that there are alot of Fortner cousins possibly still in the Bedford, and Ft Wayne areas. My paternal father, Ray Edward Fortner lives in Columbus, IND. My uncle, Joseph Fortner (my grandmother's second son) lives in New York, NY. Please help search my roots on my father's side prior to the birth of my grandmother...Does this make sense?..I am just starting this project..thanks Elizabeth
