Thanks to the many folks that offered explanations; thought some of you
might be interested in some of their thoughts......

1. a movement to establish new churches
2. better farm land; flatter and richer 
3. land grants given by the government

Cindy,
   Glad you asked. I would like to know the same thing. Only mine came from
Montgomery, Preble and Darke County OHio. (Boomershine & related).
  Anyone have any idea's on why the migration to northern Indiana?
 Thanks.

Mine came from Logan Co. OH to Cass Co. MI and they were farmers. One came from NY to ST. Joseph
Co. IN. He was a miner and became a farmer in IN.
