Kentuckiana Genealogy: Queries: Unsolved Mysteries: Rebecca Ann Rowzee Watson CONRAD

This individual is an extremely elusive individual to attempt to find. I have been trying to research her now for nearly 15 years and still keep banging my head against the proverbial brick wall. ANY assistance in locating her grave, any other information regarding her, anything that I can grasp at would be greatly appreciated. Here is the information that I have on her thus far.

Prior to her marriage to John J. CONRAD on the 18th of September, 1866, in Harrison County, IN, she was married to a Nicholas WATSON, whom she married the 12th of November 1866 also in Harrison County, IN. In which all of the family doing research on her concur that apparently he died as a result of the Civil War due to the date she married John J. CONRAD. She had two daughters by Nicholas WATSON, their names being Mary C., and Minerva E.

Rebecca was born c. 1837 in Virginia (possibly), I have no information on her parents, and with a name like ROWZEE you would think that it would be easy to locate.
