Settled in Shelby, IN and then Johnson co., IN. 2. Note from WFT 8:3133. "Tandy Brockman, a Virginian, came to Johnson County, Indiana in 1823, building his cabin on the knoll where the Brockman Cemetery is now located. He buried his son Richard here in 1824. The Jolity Church was organized here in 1828. The Cemetery is a dedicated tract, supported by the interest on an endowment plus donations, controlled by a board. Tandy Brockman, son of Samuel and Nancy Durrett Brockman, was a native of Virginia and grew to manhood in Kentucky, having been taken to the latter state when but four years old. He married Martha Shipp and moved to Shelby County, Indiana, settling in the woods and for some time lived the life of a rugged pioneer. Mrs. Brockman died at the age of sixty four. Tandy died at the age of seventy two in Edinburg, Indiana. He is buried there. Tandy was a Methodist, Protestant, temperance, Whig. In clearing ground he injured his leg severely and later developed blood poisoning. He was taken to the then nearest hospital at Madison in Jefferson County, Indiana, where the leg was amputated. He used an artificial leg or peg and returned home to clear land for school. He was supposed to help with founding the Jollity M.P. church. Also started the Brockman graveyard which is still in use and cared for today. Charles Smith, son of Caroline Brockman, says that shortly after coming to Indiana the two young sons of Tandy and Martha Brockman died of something like malaria or one of the fevers so prevalent in those days. The elder Brockman then set aside a portion of land to be used as a cemetery." 3. Information from the sign at the Brockman Cemetery gives the following information: "BROCKMAN CEMETERY --- 1824 --- Tandy Brockman, a Virginian, came here in 1823 building his cabin on this knoll and burying his small son Richard here in 1824, started this burial ground. The Jollity Church was organized here in 1828. This is a dedicated tract, supported by the interest on an endowment plus donations, controlled by a board. Many names of neighborhood families are represented here, among them the Pruitts, descendants of Moses and Elizabeth Hawkins Pruitt. Markers from the Pruitt cemetery were brought here in 1972." 4.
