I am looking for any info on my gggrandfather Parnell Bales born abt 1839-1841 in TN (or maybe IN.) the oldest son of Jacob E. Bales and Rachel Mainifold.
I've found him on the 1850 & 1860 Indiana census and I've found records of both of his Indiana marriages. (Mahala Smith and Polly Slusher) I've also found Civil War Records but, I'm not sure the Civil War stuff is him.
I am the ggrand daughter of his daughter with Mahala Smith who was Mary Ann Bales Kelly Chilton.
I think he may have been in KS for awhile because my grandmother Lura Kelly was born there.
Thanks
