You said this was found with items of your grandparents.
Is there any chance that they had any others about the Tarwater. I'm searching for this group of Tarwaters from Sullivan Co. Other names of interest are Drummond, Orndorff, and so many others I can't name them all.

I am sorry, but I don't believe there are any other clippings. I think I posted everything that seemed to have genealogy significance. Most clippings were undated and I don't know why my grandparents saved the clippings. Most of the clippings do not seem to have ancestrial connections to my own family research. Perhaps these folks were neighbors or friends. Nevertheless their lives must have crossed when my grandparents lived in Sullivan & Vigo County.
I am pleased the clipping might have shed some insight to your search. Good luck to you as you continue in your quest.
