Notes
Census
Probate
Probate Order Book Vol.#2 p. 269 proves Joshua Bruce is the father of John Bruce of Fountain County Indiana. The document states there were 5 minor children in the household of Joshua and Margaret Bruce at the time of his death. She is seeking guardianship of her 5 minor children."Revolutionary War Veterans of Greene county, OH". In the book it has a one page reference to George Bruce married to the widow Biggs and names two children: James & Joshua who it states resided in Delaware county in 1820. This book has the proof we have been looking for years. We now have proof of Joshua's ancestry which comes through John Bruce of Shenandoah and his wife, Margaret McMahon.Endnotes
