Well, duh, why didn't I think to check the Mortality Schedules for our paupers, but alas, I did not, so thanks so much to Kim H. for doing so. Wallace in Montgomery County usually refers to the Lew Wallace and his father, David Wallace family, but they came up from Kentucky and this would likely not be any relation whatsoever or at least for quite a # of generations. Lew's son, Henry would not be born for three more years. At any rate, THIS Henry Wallace was found (by Kim) on the 1850 Mortality schedule at the young age of 23, listed as a Pauper dying of Chronic Dropsy. With no death records or obituaries in that time frame, we are not 100% sure Henry Wallace is buried at the poor farm, but it is probably 95% likely. At any rate, here is where Henry will RIP until further notice! - kz & kh
