Hi:
	I don't know if you still want this response...  Try the Allen  
County Public Library in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  They have the 3rd  
largest genealogy collection in the country, they are in the state  
you mentioned, and they have an online catalog.  The collection is  
strongest in materials from the mid-west.  Since the Hoover family  
was Quaker, also try the Quaker Collection at Earlham College,  
Richmond, Indiana.  I doubt if either of these libraries does ILL,  
but they may be willing to photocopy.
	Note that Indiana was 50% Quaker in 1850.  Also note that there are  
a dozen or more bulletin boards for Quaker genealogy on the net.   
Posting a query on some of them may help.
