FAUCETT & CAWBY: A brief return to my Faucett and Cawby families. Benjamin Franklin Faucett and Nancy Clark were the parents of five children, four boys and a girl. The three eldest boys were Alpheus, James and Charles. Martin Cawby Jr. and Lucinda Gulley had three girls and a boy. The daughters were Mary Alice, Helen and Elizabeth.
On 19 August 1884 James Fauctt and Helen Cawby were married in Indianapolis, Indiana.
On 18 April 1885 Charles Faucett and Elizabeth Cawby were married in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Alpheus Faucett had married Sarah Kidder on 12 September 1878 in Hendricks Co., Indiana. Sarah died in 1887. Alpheus remained a widower for 13 years.
On 13 August 1900 Alpheus Faucett married Mary Alice Cawby in Indianapolis, Indiana.
The three Faucett brothers married the three Cawby sisters.
John and Eve [Fry] Faucett and Joseph and Rebecca [Hurin] Faucett are buried at Shiloh Methodist Cemetery near Avon, IN. Benjamin was originally buried at Shiloh, but his remains were removed to Crown Hill in Indianapolis in 1893.
