Harry J. Enyard

Classification: Query
Surnames: Enyard, Hess, Chriswell
In Riverview Cemetery (South Bend, St. Joseph Co. IN), next to my relatives, there is a tombstone for Harry J. Enyard (1879-1918). I am very interested in who this man is.

My great (x2) grandparents, Benjamin Hess and Jennie Belle (Chriswell) Hess supposedly had a son named Harry. I am having trouble finding their Harry Hess, but I have found a Harry Chriswell that served in the civil war, and listed Jennie Hess as his mother.

I am wondering if Harry Hess, Harry Chriswell, and Harry J. Enyard are the same man. If this Harry J. Enyard IS the son of Jennie (Chriswell) Hess, he would have been born when she was 18 years old. I am not sure when Benjamin Hess and Jennie Chriswell were married, but I am wondering if it is her son, maybe he did not belong to Benjamin...hence the different surnames.

I am trying to figure it out. If anyone has any information that can help out, please let me know. I am very confused, yet I feel I may be on to something at the same time.
