Harden Asher is my grandfather. He married Martha E. Bolin, Daughter of Stephen Bolin and Ellen Lollar, and granddaughter of Christopher Columbus Bolin. Martha and Harden married in l880. She was born in l864 and died in l937 in Mn. He was born in l860 and died in l9l5 in MN. They were both born in Morgan Co. supposedly in Washington Township, Martinsville, Ind. The Bolens had relatives in Owen Co. Indiana named Nathan probably son of Seth who may also been a son of Christopher Bolen. Harden Asher and Martha Asher's daughter Lydia Bell Bolen married William Nathan Bolen, and they were second cousins. Their first son Alonzo was born in Gosport Indiana. They moved to MN in l9l0.\ By the grapevine from another relative, it is believed that Christopher Columbus Bolen married a Nancy Baker daughter of a George Baker and Born in Clay Co. KY. Christopher Bolen was born in TN in 1787. I am a beginner in this research of ancestors and help would be greatly appreciated. Louise O. Fellman, 416 8th St. N. E. Staples, Mn 56479. Thank you.
Morgan County Historical Association Queries, Fri, 25 Jul 1997 19:26:13 -0700:
Have answer to recent query. Wm. Nathan Bolin is the grandson of Balem Bolin, and is married to his second cousin the granddaughter of Stephen Bolin, the brother of Balem. Both Balem and Stephen are sons ofChristopher C. Bolin and Nancy Baker, whose parents were George Baker and Susannah Morris. Now I am looking for the father of my grandfather, Harden Asher, b. in Morgan Co. In the 1880 Census he was listed as living with his Mother, Catherine, age 6l, had a brother Jacob, age 34 and a younger brother, John, Age 14. Another source shows a Catherine married to a Robert Asher, with a son Jacob's age, but Harden was not listed among their children. The Catherine was the right age. Any help out there would be greatly appreciated. Louise O. Fellman, 416 8th St. N. E. Staples, Minnesota, 56479
