I have just discovered this blog and had an immediate attraction to your surnames research. My fraternal (my maiden name) is Toler research from Kentucky back to Virginia. However, my maternal Great Grandfather and Grandmother are Hoffman, Jennings Co.Indiana. My great grandfather was indeed married twice to 2 sisters (Johnson). Maggie was my Great Grandmother, and she died in 1904 & in 1906 John Hoffman (my great grandfather) married her sister Idell (often referred to in records as Ida). I believe what attracted my attention was your other surname research of Arbuckle. I remember my mother's stories of Commissky IN ( she is still living at 97) and her Grandfather, John Hoffman who lived with them after Idell also passed away. The name of Arbuckle also was very prominent in that area, as I believe my mother went to school with several of them, possibly in Paris Crossing. I find it odd that we are both researching Toler & Hoffman, so will be interested in your connections with my family line, possibly on 2 sides.
