Notes for John A. Heeter
I could not find a Wabash Co. marriage record for John Heeter & Martha or Mattie Tuckey. Perhaps they married in Kosciusko county.
The index to Wabash Co. death records lists in Bk 1925-39, p. 116, John Heeter d. 4-11-36, age 75, in Chester twp, buried in Pleasant Hill Cem.
Binnie's "Cemetery Records of Chester twp" lists on p. 59, in Pleasant Hill Cem, a triple stone for: "John A. Heeter 1860-1936 Martha 1865-1942 Vida 1898-1899" (This is adjacent to the plot for Mahlon Heeter (1872-1937), who may be a brother.)
