The Josiah Sweet family moved to New Haven, Adams Co. in 1855. Wife Eunice, children Clarinda, Orilla, Julia, Josiah, Eunice, David, Stephen, Oliva, Cecelia, Cora, Edwin, William, and John. Josiah and Eunice are buried in Big Spring Cemetery. Sons Edwin and William died in Civil War. Looking for information on all children and descendants.

I am working on transcribing Big Spring now.....there are a number of Sweet stones there.....

I'm sure those are the ones I'm looking for. Any info you can supply would be welcome. Thanks.
