(Wife) Census US 18301830Eunice was likely enumerated on the 1830 census in the household of her husband, John Belcher Jr., in Orange County, Indiana. Their household consisted of five people: 1 male between the ages of 20 thru 29 years, who would have been John; two females under the age of 5 years; one female between the ages of 20 thru 29 years, whom we believe was John's wife, Eunice; and one female between the ages of 30 thru 39 years.4 
Land Patent*1 August 1839Eunice's husband, John Belcher, was issued a Land Patent on 1 August 1839 according to an Act of Congress dated 24 April 1820 which made further provision for the initial sale of public lands by the Federal Government to individuals. After confirming that he had paid in full, John received title to land in Orange County, Indiana, described as:

The South East quarter of the North West quarter of Section Twenty-Four in Township One, South, of Range Two, West, in the District of Lands subject to sale at Vincennes, Indiana, and containing forty acres.

John's father, John Belcher, brother, Berry Belcher, and cousin, Arthur Belcher, also received patents for nearby land. His father purchased 80 acres on 5 August 1837; his brother Berry purchased 40 acres on 1 September 1838; and his cousin Arthur purchased 40 acres on 1 August 1839, the same date as John.5,6,7,8

Fred Barker Plowman1

Name VariationHis given name was Frederick.2,3 
Marriage*19 August 1893He married, as her second husband, Dora C. (Downs) Groves, daughter of Samuel Downs and Lucy Ann Wannamaker, on 19 August 1893 in Cook County, Illinois.1 
Research Notes* The only evidence we've found for Frederick Plowman, and are able to feel certain is the correct individual, is the 1893 marriage record of Fred Barker Plowman and Dora C. (Downs) Groves. We are sad to admit that we remain totally unaware of who he was before or after his relationship with Dora.1 
Divorce*17 March 1897Dora Plowman filed suit, through an attorney, for divorce from Frederick Plowman on 17 March 1897 in the Circuit Court, Huntington County, Indiana. Abandonment and a failure to support were the allegations of her complaint, adding that while she had been a dutiful wife, he had been neglectful of his duties as a husband. Her attorney also submitted her affidavit to the Court stating that the defendant, Frederick Plowman, was not a resident of the State of Indiana and that he was a necessary party to the case. As a result, a legal "Notice to Non-Residents" was submitted by the Court to newspapers for publication over a period of several weeks, to notify the defendant, Frederick Plowman, that unless he appeared on the 14th day of May 1897, at the Court House in Huntington, in said county and State, to answer or demur to said complaint, the same would be heard and determined in his absence.3,2,4
