She said to her loved ones a short time ago as they ministered unto her 'I won't be with you long I will have to go, but there is no fear, I am ready and willing' and on February 20, 1923, as she sat in a chair she answered the summons and without a struggle went out." She was buried at Ames Chapel Cemetery in Orange, Indiana, United States.

18. William Maxfield
"Bill" Toliver14,911,1314 was born on September 5, 1867 in Orangeville, Orange,
Indiana, United States. His middle name must have been for his grandfather,
Maxfield Wilson.
He
was a farmer and lumberman. James Lane
related that in the early 1900's there street cars that ran between French Lick
and West Baden. William bought a car and
started providing taxi service (they were called jitneys at the time) for the
same price as the street cars. This
competition eventually forced the street cars out of business some time in the
1920's.
James related this story about staying with his grandparents, William and
Lavinia Toliver. Viney fixed biscuits
and gravy for breakfast nearly every morning.
William would eat breakfast holding grandson Bob (Chester Robert Lane)
on his knee. They would both have gravy
all over their faces.

by a spring at the back of his son-in-law Chester Lane's farm in Prospect, IN
when he suffered a stroke. He managed to

motorist. He was an invalid from that
time until he passed away. His death

43 v. Hattie Ermel Toliver,
born October 22, 1906.
44 vi. Hazel Lorena Toliver, born August 1, 1913.
19. Elizabeth Sarah "Lizzie" Toliver13,914 was born on July 30, 1869 in Orangeville, Orange, Indiana, United States. The marriage index lists her as Sarah E. Toliver.
She appeared in the census in 1870 in Orangeville Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. She appeared in the census in 1880 in Orangeville Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. She appeared in the census in 1900 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. She appeared in the census in 1910 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States.
She died on February 27, 1913 at the age of 43 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. Her death certificate reported the following: cause of death was gastric ulcer, occupation was housekeeper, marital status was married to William Charles. The Springs Valley Herald (March 6, 1913) reported "Elizabeth Toliver Charles was born near Orangeville, Indiana, July 30th, 1869. She was the daughter of George and Cornelia Wilson Toliver and was the oldest daughter of that family. She died in the early morning of Feb. 27th, 1913, aged 43 years, 6 months and 28 days. Lizzie grew up into a happy, wholesome, young woman. Her gentle disposition won for her the love of everybody with whom she came in contact. On May 3rd, 1888, she was married to Will A. Charles, who survives her. Comparatively all of her married life was spent in the house where she died, familiarly known as the Aunt Sallie Campbell home, and there she particularly endeared herself to us all by her open heart and hospitality which was no-wise changed from former years. Few of her friends indeed, are those who could not recall Lizzie's hearty invitations to her home, and her kindly ministry in it. For many years she has been a consecrated Christian woman, and was a faithful member of Ames Chapel M.E. Church. Lizzie's Christian life was the kind that counts for God. It's fruitage was that of the spirit. Galatians 5:22 reads The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. Against such there is no law, and they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh. And so it was with our loved one. The husband and mother, the brothers and sisters are grief stricken. The companionship is broken, the comforting counsel is gone, but we know that in her own suffering (and for years she bore affliction) Lizzie found not only comfort but joy in her Christian service and she would bid you turn to her Savior and make Him your comforter in these dark hours. She would bid you rejoice in her heavenly birthday, where she has gone like stepping forth into another room, to greet her Savior and the loved ones there and to make heaven nearer to us all for her going. There are left besides scores of friends, the husband, brothers, sisters and other relatives. The funeral services were held at Ames Chapel on Saturday, March 1st, by her pastor Rev. O.E. Haley and Rev. Raaf, of Bloomfield, her former pastor, and the body laid to rest in the cemetery adjoining, beneath a blanket of beautiful flowers, each one a mute tribute of love for this life not lived long, but lived so well." She was buried on March 1, 1913 at Ames Chapel Cemetery in Orange, Indiana, United States.
Elizabeth Sarah "Lizzie" Toliver and William A. "Willie" Charles were married on May 3, 1888 in Orange, Indiana, United States (book H-1. page 122). William A. "Willie" Charles14,9, son of Seth Charles and Sarah E. Campbell, was born on April 17, 1866 in Orange, Indiana, United States. John Toliver's descendants chart listed him as Charles Wilson. However, all of the other available records make it clear that this is incorrect. He appeared in the census in 1870 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. It lists William (14) living with grandmother Sarah Field Campbell. He appeared in the census in 1880 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. His surname was incorrectly listed as Campbell. He appeared in the census in 1900 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. It lists William (34) and Sarah (30). He appeared in the census in 1910 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. It lists William (44) and Lizzie (41). The census lists them as not having any children. He appeared in the census in 1920 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. It lists William (52) living with his brother Wilbur. His occupation was laborer. He appeared in the census in 1930 in French Lick Township, Orange, Indiana, United States. It lists William (64), Martha (53) and Mary (4). He appeared in the census in 1940 in French Lick, Orange, Indiana, United States. It lists William (73), Martha (64) and Mary (14). His obituary reported that Mary was adopted. His occupation was hotel watchman. His highest level of education was 8th grade, Martha's was the same. This census raises questions. FAG and the Lost River DAR transcriptions report that Martha died in 1936, but the person in this census appears to be the same one in the 1930 census, William's obituary reports that his wife survived him, and Martha is listed on his death certificate. Are the Martha of the censuses and the Martha of the cemetery records different people? He died on September 8, 1940 at the age of 74 in French Lick, Orange, Indiana, United States. The cemetery transcription posted on the Orange County USGenWeb site lists the date as July 22, 1940. His death certificate reported the following: cause of death was uremic poisoning due to chronic hepatitis, occupation was night watchman, marital status was married. The Springs Valley Herald (September 12, 1940) reported "William A. Charles, 74, died at his home on Adams Street Sunday, September 8th after a long illness. Mr. Charles was born in Orange County, the son of Seth and Susan E. Charles. He served as night watchman at the French Lick Springs Hotel for several years. Rev. Perry Key, assisted by Rev. James Austin and Rev. Floyd Elliott, was in charge of the funeral services at Ames Chapel Tuesday afternoon, followed by interment in the church cemetery. W. V. Ritter & Son were the funeral directors. He leaves a wife and adopted daughter." He was buried at Ames Chapel Cemetery in Orange, Indiana, United States.
20. John Toliver5,913 was born on September 10, 1870 in Orangeville, Orange, Indiana, United States. Clint Toliver credits the notes of Mae Minnie Toliver Wilson for John's birth date. However, the cemetery transcription shows 1871-1873. He died on September 30, 1871 at the age of 1 in Orangeville, Orange, Indiana, United States. He was buried at Springer Cemetery in Orange, Indiana, United States.
21. Barney Toliver5,913 was born on July 19, 1872 in Orangeville, Orange, Indiana, United States. Clint Toliver credits the notes of Mae Minnie Toliver Wilson for Barney's birth and death dates. However, his grave stone shows 1875 - 1875. He died on February 16, 1875 at the age of 2 in Orangeville, Orange, Indiana, United States. He was buried at Springer Cemetery in Orange, Indiana, United States.
22. Lucy Jane Toliver1,34,913 was born on January 18, 1874 in Orangeville, Orange, Indiana, United States. Her death certificate reported 1871, but this conflicts with the birth of her siblings. The 1880 census and her marriage record indicate a year of 1874, which seems more likely. Clint Toliver said that the notes of Mae Minnie Toliver Wilson reported the year as 1881.

Notes
1. Census Data: Rather than repeat the detail from a family census entry in each persons record, it has been recorded only in the Head of Household record, and only the census year and location are recorded in the family member records (with a few exceptions, like adult children living with their parents). If you are reviewing a person who is not the Head of Household, be sure to look at the Head of Household entry to see if there is additional information.
2. Name Spelling: The spelling of names in source documents is often incorrect, with the name being spelled the way the writer thought it sounded. The spelling could be different in every document. In most cases the name is reported in this document as it was written, but some gross misspellings have been corrected.
3. Direct Ancestral Line: The direct ancestors of Robert Edward Lane are highlighted in blue.
