Census record puts his birth year in 1888, not 1885, although a birth year of 1885 is possible. His parents were married in 1883. (340uvd)

        Carrie L Wilson [R2c5a2c9], daughter of Marquis Pillow Wilson and Malinda Jane Robertson, was born in March 1886 at New Concord, in Calloway Co KY. (158uv)

        Charles Wilson [R2c5a7], son of Marquis De La Fayette Wilson and Anna Calhoun Neil, was born in 1832 in Bedford Co or in Marshall Co TN. There is a marriage record of a Chas W Wilson who married Mary R Roberts in Williamson Co on 16 February 1858. (341kn,180m)

        Charles Addison Wilson [R2c5c1a3], son of Almarine Wilson and Nancy Elizabeth Straughan, was born 2 February 1882 in Collin Co TX. He married Alice C Lewis in 1905 and they lived in Collin Co in 1910. She was born in TX in September 1884.

        Charles M Wilson [R2c5a8a], son of James Kincaid Wilson and Martha Jane Hogue, was born in 1855 KY, probably in Calloway Co. He was not found after 1880. There was a Charles Wilson who lived at Kansas City, MO in 1920, was a carpenter and a pool hall operator, and was born in KY about 1855. He was a widower and was killed in an auto accident on 28 March 1928. Since he then lived alone, there was no family member who could accurately fill in the personal information for his death certificate. Therefore, his parents were not shown on it. He was buried in Forest Hill Cemetery. (158rs,39d)

        Columbus Wilson [R2c5b3], son of Hiram Wilson and Eliza Carothers, was born in 1832 in TN, probably in Sumner Co, but lived in Marshall Co TN in early 1859 and Marshall Co MS (not in TN) in 1860 and 1870. He usually did not use his first name; Columbus was the name used most of the time. His full name was A Columbus Wilson. In all of the USA in 1850, he was the only Columbus Wilson born in TN in the early 1830s. Therefore the Columbus Wilson born in TN in 1832 and living in Marshall Co MS in 1870 with Mrs E M Rhoades must be the same Columbus. In Mrs Rhoades’ home with Columbus in 1870 was Virginia Wilson, born in AL in 1833. Neither woman was Columbus’ wife. She was revealed in son Wilber’s death certificate as being Annie E Gilliland, born in Tipton Co TN in 1840. Mrs Rhoades was born in AL in 1820. Annie and Columbus married in Shelby Co TN on 16 October 1859. In 1850 Annie lived in Shelby Co with her parents Samuel Gilliland and Eliza _____. Tipton Co, Annie’s birthplace, is the county bordering Shelby to the north. Cross Co AR, where their son Wilber was born five years later, is two counties west of Shelby Co. But they first settled in Marshall Co MS in 1860. This county is at the southeast corner of Shelby Co TN. So Shelby Co was the center of the various places where they lived over the years. Annie was dead by 1870 and Columbus and his four children were still in Marshall Co TN then, but in the mid-1860s they lived in Cross Co AR. Annie probably died in Marshall Co MS in the late 1860s. Their children were-

a.     Mattie Wilson, b 1861

b.     Thomas Wilson, b 1862

c.     Wilber Fisk Wilson, b 20 Sep 1864

d.     Fletcher Wilson, b 1866

Virginia Wilson who lived with Columbus in 1870 was not his sister if she was born about 1837; Columbus had no sister named Virginia. (341kn, 14m,183qr)

        Columbus B Wilson [R2c5b2e], son of Edward E Wilson and Emma Dunnegan, was born in November 1861 in Marshall Co TN.

        Edward E Wilson [R2c5b2], son of Hiram Wilson and Eliza Carothers, was born 25 June 1824 in TN, probably in Sumner Co, but lived in Marshall Co in the late 1830s. He married Emma Dunnegan on 19 December 1847 in Marshall Co. In 1850 they lived two doors from Edward’s parents in Marshall Co. So far, there is no direct proof that Edward was a son, but his 1824 birth fits the age of the son in Hiram’s home in 1840, and he did live close to Hiram in 1850. Therefore, he is probably the eldest son. And because of the names of his children, there is little doubt that Edward was Hiram’s son. Edward’s wife Emma was born in TN on 20 September 1829. They lived in Marshall Co into the 1880s. Edward died 13 November 1891 and was buried in Chapel Hill Cemetery in Marshall Co. Emma died on 30 September 1906. They had seven children-

Elizabeth had married Zacheus Wilson on 24 November 1790 at Gallatin, Sumner Co TN. He was born in the 1760s, son of Samuel Wilson and Sarah Moore, and was Elizabeth’s first cousin. Zacheus died in Sumner Co in 1814. His birth date is often reported as 1765, but this is unlikely and he must be confused with the Zacheus who was a son of Robert Wilson and Eleanor Carothers, and who died in 1842 in Williamson Co TN. Elizabeth and her husband had five children, all probably born in TN-

a.     Jane Wilson, b 24 Aug 1792

She married Albert Armstrong about 1858 and they immediately moved to Utah Territory, and settled at Provo. Albert was born in PA in 1838. In 1870 they lived at Salt Point, Sonoma Co CA and he was then a teamster. He apparently died in the 1870s in Sonoma Co because in 1880 Margaret was working as a chambermaid in the John Simpson home at Santa Rosa, and her son Edgar lived with another family. Their three eldest daughters were not found in 1880, but in 1900 Margaret lived at Branciforte, Santa Cruz Co CA with her daughter Caroline.

Louisa had three Dowell children from her first marriage to Robert Dowell about 1845. Throughout all his years, all but one record of R D Allison just used his two initials R D; only the 1870 Collin Co TX census showed his middle name. He and wife Louisa and their two children James (born 1861) and Lulu (born 1864), and Donaldson’s son Winfield, moved to Collin Co about 1865. Donaldson died at McKinney on 15 Dec 1900 and his wife Louisa died there on 10 Feb 1912. (W,479kn, 596m, 340rsvfd, 346w)

        Hiram Wilson [R2c5b], son of Narcissa Wilson and Jonathan Wilson, was born 6 February 1802 in Sumner Co TN. He married Eliza Carothers in the early 1820s, probably in Sumner Co. She was born 10 August 1801 in TN, daughter of Hugh Carothers and Martha Irwin, and died 27 May 1854. In 1837 Hiram lived in Marshall Co (court record of 4 April 1837), three counties south of Sumner Co.

        J H Wilson (son),[R2c5a2c5], son of Marquis Pillow Wilson and Malinda Jane Robertson, was born in 1879 in Calloway Co KY, and probably died by 1900. (158s)

        James A Wilson [R2c1], son of Jean Rowan and David Carroll Wilson, was born in 1769 in Mecklenburg Co NC. He moved to Sumner Co TN as a young man and married twice in Sumner Co. The first marriage was on 17 September 1787 with Mary Wilson, and the second marriage was with Peggy Graham on 5 July 1803; the bond for this second marriage was provided by John Shelby. James A and Peggy moved to Mecklenburg Co where he died on 2 September 1817. There is no evidence that he had children. (W,337m)

        James Kincaid Wilson [R2c5a8], son of Marquis De La Fayette Wilson and Anna Calhoun Neil, was born 12 May 1834 in Bedford Co or Marshall Co TN. He died 19 July 1918 at Murray, Calloway Co KY and was buried in Dale Cemetery. He married Martha Jane Hogue on 2 August 1854 in Marshall Co TN. She was born 26 January 1838 in Marshall Co, daughter of Edward Harvey Hogue and Mary A Billington, and died 20 May 1923 at Morrilton, Conway Co AR. She lived with her daughter Malissa in 1920, and her name was written as Mary J Wilson in the census.

        James Thompson Wilson [R2c5c1e2b], son of Paul Kincaid Wilson and Ruth Thompson, was born 17 January 1931 in Collin Co TX. (340b)

        Jan Wilson [R2c5c7c4b], daughter of Addison George Wilson and Mescal Hill, was born 13 September 1946 at Dallas, TX. She married Dan Hulen Harris at Dallas on 26 May 2002. He was born 7 April 1953 in McLennan Co, son of Newton Loy Harris and Marion Edith Hulen. (178bm, 163b)

        Jane Wilson [R2c4a], daughter of Elizabeth Wilson and Zacheus Wilson, was born 24 August 1792 in Sumner Co TN. She married Ezekiel Cherry in Sumner Co on 5 November 1812. Ezekiel was born 6 September 1792 in Sumner Co, son of Joshua Cherry and Martha Keene (both from NC). Ezekiel served in the War of 1812 under Captain John Wallace, his brother-in-law (husband of Jane’s sister Matilda Wilson [R2c4b]). Ezekiel was in the 1st Tennessee Infantry Regiment Volunteers, and enlisted on 10 December 1812; he was a Lieutenant. He was a 2nd Lieutenant on 26 September 1813, and was discharged 10 December 1813. In Sumner Co a division of the plantation of Zacheus Wilson, deceased, dated 28 August 1816, gave 50 acres to Ezekiel Cherry, husband of Jane Wilson. Ezekiel paid taxes on his 50 acres at Station Camp Creek in Sumner Co in 1816 through 1818. He lived in neighboring Bedford Co in 1820, three counties south of Sumner Co, and his parents lived next door. Although we know that by then Ezekiel had three daughters, they were not shown in his household, yet a teenage male was. The teen could have been Ezekiel’s younger brother. Census takers in the pre-1850 years were often careless. Also in Bedford Co in 1820 was Evan Wilson, brother of Captain John Wilson. In fact, there were many of the Sumner Co Wilson adults in Bedford Co in 1820. Ezekiel served at the Bedford Co Commissioner in 1820, and bought and sold land there between 1817 and 1834.

        The 1830 census of Bedford Co showed Ezekiel’s home two doors from Marcus Wilson. In Ezekiel’s home in 1830 were three sons and four daughters. Ezekiel died about 1835, probably in Bedford Co or in Marengo Co AL since records of him stop about then. His widow Jane was found in Marengo Co AL in 1840. This is three counties south of Fayette Co where many of her children and grandchildren lived in later years. The 1840 census of Marengo Co shows an “E Cherry” male on page 51, born in the 1810s, with three children under age 5, so that could not be Jane’s husband or son. Jane was on census page 41 in Marengo Co, and there were two Cherry neighbor families next door (John and S W Cherry). Also in Marengo Co in 1840 was Jane’s father-in-law Joshua Cherry, age 79 (born 1761) who was receiving a military pension (census page 37). Joshua lived four doors from J W Cherry. In Jane’s home in 1840 were four sons and two daughters. The two eldest daughters had already married by 1840, and all children remaining in her home in 1840 matched known ages of her children who were alive then.

        Jane died at Mansfield, DeSoto Par LA after 1860. In 1860 she lived in DeSoto Par (she was age 68, born in TN about 1792) with her son Albert, and with Albert’s 16 year old wife Sarah F. Jane and Ezekiel had about ten children-

        Leona Alice Wilson [R2c4e4f2], daughter of John Miles Wilson and Carolina Amelia Gudmundson, was born 20 January 1893 at Provo, UT. She married Ralph Benton Prout on 10 November 1925 and they lived at Salt Lake City. Ralph was born at Salt Lake City in December 1896, son of Henry Benton Prout and Mary Ann Latey, and was a manager of a garage in 1930. Ralph died 11 April 1960 and was buried in Mount Olivet Cemetery in Salt Lake City. They had two sons by 1930, both born at SLC-

        Lola E Wilson [R2c5a2c2], daughter of Marquis Pillow Wilson and Malinda Jane Robertson, was born 20 July 1872 in Calloway Co KY. She was a school teacher at New Concord in 1900. Lola never married, and died at South Concord on 5 October 1921 of heart failure. The informant for her death certificate was “Carrye Ferguson” of New Concord (Lola’s sister?). (158suvd)

        Lucian P Wilson [R2c5a2d], son of Jonathan Alexander Wilson and Charity S McLemore, was born in December 1853 in Marshall Co TN. He was married in Maury Co on 13 December 1873 to Sarah C Chunn, and she must have died soon after April 1875. The marriage record is actually between Mr “L P Wilson” and Ms “Sami (or Sari?) Chun” (see note below). Sarah was born in Maury Co in 1854, daughter of John Chunn and Mariah Shires. Lucian then married Sallie C Harris in Marshall Co on 18 May 1876. In 1880 and 1900 they lived in Marshall Co. She was born in Maury Co TN in December 1855, daughter of John Harris and Tabitha Morris. Lucian died in the 1900s, probably in Marshall Co, and Sallie was found at Nashville in 1910 with most of her children. In 1920 Sallie lived with her daughter Ivy in Marshall Co.

        They had three children by 1880, and Sallie claimed ten children by 1910. Census evidence shows eleven children; nine were known to be alive in 1910, and Sallie claimed that two had died. Hence there must have been eleven children in all. Her count of ten would be correct if the eldest son was not Sallie’s. This appears to be the case since she had been married 24 years in 1900, and the eldest living child was born in April 1875. Lucian’s children were all born in Marshall Co TN-

The name Chunn is quite rare for this area of TN. The Chunn families were in Maury Co from the early 19th Century, descendants of Sylvester Chunn who fought in the Revolution in VA. Sylvester was born about 1757 and lived in Maury Co in 1820 and in Marshall Co in 1840. On the 1923 tax roster of Maury Co, Sylvester and William Chunn paid taxes. In Maury Co in 1860 there was John Thomas Chunn; he was born in NC in 1825, son of Henry Chunn (born 1794) and Hannah Garrett (born 1791). Henry Chunn was a son of the Sylvester Chunn of early Maury Co. John T Chunn had married Mariah Shires (born in TN in 1832) in Maury Co on 18 Mar 1846, and they had seven children by 1860 ranging in ages from 14 to 1 (two had died by 1860). One daughter Eliza Ann married John Humphrey McFadden on 7 Sep 1865 in Maury Co, and the middle daughter was Sarah C Chunn (the Sari Chunn who married L P Wilson). Sarah C Chunn was born in 1854 in Maury Co, and was the right age to marry Mr L P Wilson in 1873. Furthermore, this Sarah was the only Sara / Sari Chunn in Maury Co or in Marshall Co of this approximate age in 1860. (117,341kqrsu, 10iqm,49v)

Sylvester Chunn enlisted in Halifax Co VA on 1 Feb 1777 for a period of three years. He enlisted as a Private under Captain Thomas Thweatt in the 14th Virginia Regiment commanded by Colonel Charles Lewis. He was in the Battles of Brandywine (11 Sep 1777), Germantown (4 Oct 1777) and Monmouth (28 Jun 1778). At the Battle of Monmouth, he was commanded by Captain Lambert in Colonel Davies’ Regiment. He remained in this command until his was discharged in the spring of 1780.

On 31 Jan 1819 Sylvester Chunn applied for and was awarded a pension for his services in the Revolutionary War. In the application taken by Perry W Humphreys, judge at Columbia, Maury Co TN, he stated that his age was 61 years old (born about 1758). In the application he stated he enlisted in the 14th Virginia Regiment on 1 Feb 1777 and was discharged in the Spring of 1780.

This Pension, #17,357, was awarded on 2 Jun 1820 at the rate of $8 per month to commence on 31 January 1819. With the pension declaration he was awarded $153.29 in arrears at that time. In an affidavit dated 22 Jul 1826, his age was stated as between 69 and 70 years old (born about 1758). This affidavit was a request to the pension office for the resumption of his pension which was evidently stopped shortly after it was awarded. Sylvester Chunn died in 1841 and was buried in Shires Memorial Cemetery near Pottsville, Maury Co. His gravestone has the birth and death dates of 1758 - 1841. (M,10c)

She married Aaron Houghton Conover on 1 January 1848 and in 1850 and 1860 they lived in Utah Co, UT Territory. In 1870 they were at Salt Lake City. Aaron was born 26 September 1828 at Princeton, Morgan Co IL, and was a Pioneer Settler of Utah. He was a miner. In 1880 they lived at Challis, Lemhi Co ID. Lucinda died there before 1900 and Aaron was still at Challis, living with his recently married youngest daughter. Lucinda had a son by 1850 and four more children afterwards-

        Narcissa Wilson [R2c5], daughter of Jean Rowan and David Carroll Wilson, was born about 1778 in Mecklenburg Co NC. She married Jonathan Wilson about 1795 at Gallatin, Sumner Co TN. He was born in 1773 in Mecklenburg Co, son of Zacheus Wilson and Elizabeth Conger, and was Narcissa’s first cousin. Narcissa died in Sumner Co in 1824 and Jonathan then married Elizabeth Moore in Sumner Co on 17 November 1831. Jonathan and his son Hiram were mentioned in land deed records of Marshall Co on 4 February 1839; Jonathan sold 150 acres to “M D Wilson” (son Marquis), and Hiram Wilson witnessed. On the same date, Jonathan sold 150 acres to Hiram Wilson, and Marquis witnessed.

        Jonathan was in Sumner Co in 1830.

With Jonathan Wilson was just one female, born in the 1790s, and since he had not yet married Elizabeth, this person must have been a sister.

        In 1840 in Jonathan’s home, he was age in his 70s (born 1770s), and with him were one male (a son?) born in the 1820s, and a female of the same age, plus Jonathan’s wife, born in the 1770s. Since Elizabeth was born in 1776, when she married Jonathan, she was about age 54, so they had no children. Elizabeth and Jonathan were both living in Sumner Co in 1850; she was age 74. In their home in 1850 was Theresa Pearson, age 44 (born 1806), and Theresa’s apparent daughter Catherine, age 9. Narcissa had at least three children, probably more, and all born in Sumner Co-

        Samuel Wilson [R2c4d], son of Elizabeth Wilson and Zacheus Wilson, was born in 1797 in TN, and died in Sumner Co in August 1849 of Cholera, age 52,. He was married when he died. He had married Anna Harvey and married Louisa Wilson. Louisa was found in District 4 of Sumner Co in June 1850 with no husband, but had five children in her home. She was born in TN in 1806, so they likely married about the mid-1820s, although no marriage record for them has been found. Perhaps the eldest daughter shown below was a daughter of the marriage with Anna Harvey. The 1840 census of Sumner Co shows Samuel Wilson, born in the 1790s, his wife born in the 1800s, and six children. The 1830 census shows the same Samuel with a wife of Louisa’s birth year, and matching children from the 1840 census. Living nearby in 1830 and 1820 was David Wilson (born 1780s) and his family. The 1820 census shows a Samuel Wilson living close to David Wilson, but this Samuel was over age 45, or born by 1775. The children of the Samuel born about 1798 were-

1.     dau Wilson, b 1821-1825 (337jk)

2.     son Wilson, b 1826-1830 (337jk)

3.     son Wilson, b 1826-1830 (337jk)

4.     Elizabeth Wilson, b 1830, was not in the 1840 census with her parents. (337jn)

6.     Margrett Wilson, b 1834 (337kn)

7.     Sarah E Wilson, b 1836, was not in the 1840 census with her parents. (337n)

8.     David J Wilson, b 1838 (337nk) (W,337ijkn)

        Sarah Wilson [R2c4c], daughter of Elizabeth Wilson and Zacheus Wilson, was born in the 1790s and may have married John Patterson. There was a marriage in Sumner Co between Sally Wilson and Joel S Philips on 7 July 1825. His name was spelled Phelps on the marriage record, and Joel made his X mark since he could not write. But in all the census records, his name is spelled Philips, with one L. James Campbell helped pay the marriage bond. This couple lived in Davidson Co in 1830, but that Sally died in the late 1820s since Joel then married Jane C Gee in Davidson Co on 25 June 1830, and they lived in Davidson Co. His name for this marriage was spelled Philips. Since the marriage with Sally took place in Sumner Co, then Sally was probably the daughter of Elizabeth and Zacheus Wilson. Joel’s second wife was born in VA in 1817 (1850 census record), so was age 13 when she married, if the 1850 census was accurate. The wife with Joel in 1830 was born in the 1790s, so was probably Sally. Sally had no children who lived past 1829. Her Joel was of about the same age as she was, according to the 1830 census, but in 1840 he was a few years younger, born about 1803 in TN. In their home in 1840 there were seven children, all born after the 1830 marriage with Jane. (W,337mj,49jkn)

        Sarah Elizabeth Wilson [R2c5c1c], daughter of George Alexander Wilson and Harriet Martha Kincaid, was born in 3 March 1859 in Collin Co TX, and died 13 April 1944 near Dallas at University Park, and was buried at McKinney. She married William Alexander Straughan in 1876, probably in Collin Co since they both were born there. He was born 10 March 1852, son of Jordan Oliver Straughan (often spelled Straughan) and Nancy Elizabeth Petty, and died at Fort Worth on 24 December 1837. He was buried at McKinney. They lived at McKinney and Will was a real estate agent in 1910. Sarah usually used her middle name, as Betty. She had six children by 1900, all born in Collin Co TX, and all alive; two children died by 1910-

1.     George O Straughan, b Feb 1878

2.     Elisha J Straughan, b Jan 1880

3.     Ora Straughan, b Jan 1883

4.     Edgar Straughan, b Oct 1884

5      Augustus Emerson Straughan, b 24 Oct 1887

6.     Nina Willard Straughan, b 28 Aug 1894

There was another Straughan family in Collin Co: Richard Jerome Straughan, who was born at Pittsboro, NC on 17 Feb 1853, son of Elisha Straughan and Nancy Lindley, and lived in Collin Co from the 1870s.

She was buried in Pecan Grove Cemetery. Jennie married Thomas Marion Wilson on 8 May 1880 and at first they lived with her parents. Thomas was a teacher then, and was still a teacher in 1900. Later they lived at McKinney where he was a nurseryman. Thomas was born 30 November 1852 in Perry Co IL, son of Adam Wilson and Ellen W Purcell, both from TN.

Adam Wilson and wife Phoebe A Whipkey (born 1839) lived at Levan, Jackson Co IL in 1870. They were born in TN and IL. Their sons were 17 year old Thomas and 8 year old John, both born in IL. Living next door in 1870 was Walter Wilson and wife Lucretia (born 1839). They were both born in TN. Their youngest children were Thomas, age 8: Martha L, age 3, and Walter, age 2 months, all born in IL. The older three children were born in TN and KY. Walter and Lucretia and their children from Martha and younger still were in Jackson Co in 1880.

In Collin Co TX in 1910, two doors from Thomas M Wilson and wife Jennie A was the John Wilson family. John was born in IL in 1863; his wife Rosa was from OH. And in 1900 in Collin Co was Walter Wilson, born in April 1870 in IL, and wife Josie was from TX. They were in District 4. Also in District 1 in 1900 was Martha Wilson, born in IL in 1867 and married to Daniel W Bagwell from IL, and Martha’s brother Joe, born in IL in 1861 (Joseph Thomas Wilson?). Martha and David were still in Collin Co in 1930.

It would appear that Adam Wilson and Walter Wilson were brothers. Adam was born in TN in 1832 and Walter was born in TN in 1834. Adam’s second wife was Phoebe A Whipkey, born 1839 in PA; they married on 22 May 1959 in Jackson Co. Adam’s first wife and mother of Thomas was Ellen W Purcell, whom he married in Perry Co on 29 January 1852. Perry Co is next to Jackson Co. Adam, Phoebe, and son Thomas, were living in Jackson Co in 1860. (W,340rsvd)

        Wallace Copp Wilson [R2c5c1k], son of George Alexander Wilson and Harriet Martha Kincaid, was born 17 July 1876 in Collin Co TX, and died there at McKinney on 9 January 1956. He was buried in Pecan Grove Cemetery. On 22 June 1902 Wallace married Kate Holder. She was born in 1878, daughter of Willis A Holder and Elizabeth Johnson, and died 1 August 1905.

Rachel was born 23 June 1888 in TX, daughter of John Thomas Dugger and Catherine Louis Lowery, and died of pneumonia on 13 April 1974 at Wichita Falls, Wichita Co TX. Rachel was buried in Pecan Grove Cemetery in Collin Co. Mrs Robert Huston was the informant for Rachel’s death record. Wallace was a bookkeeper at McKinney in 1920 and the postmaster in 1930. With each wife Wallace had three children, all born in Collin Co TX-

1.     Ray Holder Wilson, b 1904 (W,340vw)

2.     Robert Wilson, b 1904 (W,340vw)

3.     Harriet Edward Wilson, b 12 May 1905, died 19 August 1905. (W)

4.     Jennie Marie Wilson, b 12 Jul 1912

5.     Rebecca Wilson, b Jun 1917 (W,340wf)

6.     Katherine Kinkaid Wilson, b 16 Apr 1919 (age 9/12 in 1920 census) at McKinney, died 21 July 1927 at McKinney of hemophilia. She is buried in McKinney Cemetery. (W, 340wd) (W,M, 340svwf,403d)

        Wallace Taylor Wilson [R2c5a2d8], son of Lucian P Wilson and Sallie C Harris, was born 10 September 1893 in Marshall Co TN. He lived at Chapel Hill in Marshall Co in September 1918. In 1920 he lived with his eldest sister in Marshall Co, and was still single. He was single in 1930, living in Marshall Co, and his mother lived with him. Living next door in 1930 was his brother Bright. (M,341uwf, 49v)

        Wilber Fisk Wilson [R2c5b3c], son of Mr A Columbus Wilson and Annie E Gilliland, was born 20 September 1864 in Cross Co AR; his birth date in 1900 was given as September 1864. There were two Wilber / Wilbur Wilson men born in the mid-1860s who can easily be confused with the other. The name Wilber / Wilbur Wilson is relatively rare, so one of these two men must be the son of Columbus Wilson. One was born in AR and the other was born in VA, yet both for a while lived in the St Louis, MO area in the 1880s or 1890s, then in TX in 1910 and 1920. Over the years their names were spelled as both Wilbur and Wilber, but the elder of the two (son of Columbus Wilson) more often used the Wilber spelling, with an E. See the note below concerning the Wilbur F Wilson from VA.

        “Wilber F Wilson” (spelled with an E) enlisted in the US Army on 25 August 1884 at St Louis, MO, and said his age was then 21 years 11 months (born September 1862), and born in Cross Co AR; he was actually two years younger if he was born in 1864, as census records show. But so often young men fudge their age when they enlist in the military, or register for the draft. He was a carpenter in the army and was assigned to the Engineering department. He was discharged in the summer of 1885. In 1900 “Wilber F Wilson” from AR lived at San Antonio, TX, and had married Lillie Marshall in 1894; Lillie was born in November 1869 in IL; her mother was from England and her father from KY. This birth year and place, and the birth places of both her parents was the same in all census records after they married, but no record of Lillie’s parents has yet been found. Wilber was a school teacher and school principal in TX. In 1880 neither Wilber / Wilbur Wilson was found. The census of 1900 at San Antonio said Wilber and his wife Lillie had been married six years; the 1910 census at Houston said they were married 16 years. They remained at Houston into the 1930s. Wilber was still teaching in 1930. He consistently gave his age in census records as being born in September 1864. He was age 5 in 1870 (son of Columbus, in Marshall Co MS).

        Wilber’s death certificate at Houston finally revealed much about him. It spelled his name with a U, as in Wilbur. His full name was given; until then all we knew was that his middle name was the letter F. His father was “A C Wilson” from AR and his mother was “Annie E Gilliland” from Tipton Co TN. And we can be sure that this is the correct Wilber because his wife’s name was given as Lillie Marshall, and Wilber was a school teacher. The informant for the death certificate was “Mrs Wm M Rudersdorf” of Houston (Wilber’s daughter Florence). Wilber died at Houston on 20 July 1937 and was buried in Glenwood Cemetery at Houston. Generally, educated people marry and associate with intelligent people, so must of the death certificate information should be quite reliable. For clarity though, Wilber’s name spelling will remain with the letter E, to differentiate him from the other Wilbur Wilson of about the same age. Wilber and Lillie had three children-

1.     Mabel V Wilson, b Aug 1899

2.     Florence Ray Wilson, b 11 Dec 1902

3.     child Wilson, b & d 1900-1910. (89v) (M,183r,511u, 89uvwfd)

The other Wilbur Wilson lived at St Louis, MO when he married Fay N Laughlin “of Mason City IA” on 24 Oct 1896 at Shelbyville, Shelby Co MO. This was the second marriage for this Wilbur. Over the years he and Fay lived at Austin, TX in 1910 and 1920, then at San Diego, CA in 1930. His birth year and place was consistently 1866 or 1867 in VA. Fay’s birth date over the years when she was an adult was fairly consistently given as 1878 or 1879, yet her CA death record gave her dates as being born on 21 Sept 1875 in IA and died 27 January 1957 at San Diego. She was born in Allamakee Co IA (northeast corner of IA), daughter of James Laughlin from IL and Bertha Concord from PA. Fay’s husband Wilbur was born in VA, yet his younger siblings were born at Hopkinsville, Christian Co KY: brother Edward Wilson was born 26 Sep 1879; brother Richard Henry Wilson Jr was born 6 March 1870, married a French woman Marie Louise _____, and was a professor of languages at the University of Virginia at Charlottesville; sister Margaret S Wilson, born 17 May 1873, married a Mr Waldron and lived at Charlottesville, VA; brother Hugh Wilson was born about 1878; and brother Guy was born 1 May 1881. Their parents were Richard Henry Wilson, born 8 May 1834 in Lunenburg Co VA, died 16 Nov 1902 at Hopkinsville, KY, and Margaret A Smith, born 27 Mar 1842 in VA, died 11 Jan 1890 Hopkinsville (she was a daughter of Orlando M Smith & Lavinia _____). When Fay was a child, census records then showed her birth date as 1876, so her death record probably has the correct date. Wilbur Field Wilson (spelled with a U on his death record) was born 22 April 1866 in VA and died at Los Angeles on 15 March 1953. His mother’s maiden name was Smith. per his death record and the 1880 census of Christian Co KY. Most of the time, this Wilbur’s name was spelled with a U. He was a real estate broker, a sales manager for a trucking company, and was in the wholesale grocery business. Fay and her Wilbur Wilson had no children. (CAd, S,IAs,541q, 540wf, 48m,539u, 409vw, 65f)

        William Wilson [R2c3], son of Jean Rowan and David Carroll Wilson, was born in 1771 in Mecklenburg Co NC. He married Sarah Brevard on 10 November 1793 at Gallatin, Sumner Co TN, and they lived in Sumner Co in 1820. Sarah was born 5 June 1762 in Mecklenburg Co, daughter of Zebulon Brevard and Ann Templeton, and died in Mecklenburg Co in 1846. William was not found in 1830. Some researchers think that the Sarah Wilson who lived in Henderson Co TN in 1830 was his widow, but cemetery evidence in Henderson Co does not support that. See the Zacheus Wilson of Henderson Co TN biography. (W,55, 337m)

        William Wilson [R2c5b4], son of Hiram Wilson and Eliza Carothers, was born in 1835 in Sumner or Marshal Co TN. He was in Marshall Co in 1850 but was not found after then. (341kn)

        William Albert Wilson [R2c4e4g], son of Henry Woodville Wilson and Susannah Armstrong, was born 3 December 1868 at Provo, UT. He died 15 July 1928 at Provo and was buried in Provo City Cemetery. William married Lillian P Cook after 1900. In 1900 he was still single, and was living with his brother John M at Provo (and was age 29 then). Lillian was born at Provo on 19 June 1885, daughter of Charles Cook and Hannah Allen (both from England), and they lived at Provo. William was a barber at Provo. Lilly died 21 September 1980 at Ogden and was buried in Provo City Cemetery close to William. After William died, Lilly married again, to Seth Silock Pixton, a Salt Lake City banker, after 1935. This was also his second marriage. His first wife, Ellen Weaver, was born in 1874 and died in 1935. Seth was born 20 June 1875 in UT and died at San Diego, CA on 25 Nov 1956. (L,W,343rs, 373uwc, 375f)

        William H Wilson [R2c5a8c], son of James Kincaid Wilson and Martha Jane Hogue, was born in August 1861in KY, probably in Calloway Co. In 1900 he lived at Lamar, Johnson Co AR and had married Sallie Houston in Johnson Co on 8 November 1885. Sallie was born in October 1862 at Pittsburg, Johnson Co AR, daughter of Robert Houston and Sarah Louisa Jackson. William was a dry goods merchant. In 1910 and 1920 they lived at Pittsburg. William died in Johnson Co on 20 September 1929 and afterwards Sallie lived with her daughter Ruth. Sallie died on 14 November 1931 at Lamar.

        Zacheus Wilson, born in the 1750s, lived in Marshall Co TN in 1820, and soon after moved to Henderson Co in West TN. See his biography in the Allied Family Section near the end of this book.

        Zacheus Wilson [R2c6], son of Jean Rowan and David Carroll Wilson, was born in 1779 in Mecklenburg Co NC. He died in February 1827 in Sumner Co TN. Zacheus married Jane Carothers in 1800 in Sumner Co. She was born about 1780. In 1817 at Station Camp Creek in Sumner Co “Zacheus Wilson Sr” was taxed for 63 acres he owned there. Also, the heirs of Zacheus Wilson (who died in 1814) were taxed for their 160 acres. The Zacheus who died with heirs was born in the 1760s and died in 1814 in Sumner Co (see the Zacheus in a Nutshell note below), and was the husband of Elizabeth Wilson [R2c4]. At the same time, there was a “Zachs Wilson” (perhaps the Zacheus Wilson who was born about 1784 in Sumner Co) who owned 260 acres on Indian Creek, and “Zachs Wilson Sr” who owned 63 acres near Gallatin. The Zacheus Sr near Gallatin was probably the son of Jean Rowan since he was the eldest Zacheus living in the area then. Zacheus, son of Jean Rowan, had four daughters-

a.     Malissa Wilson, b abt 1800 (W)

b.     Sarah G Wilson, b 1802, may have married Thomas Patton on 28 Sept 1841 in Sumner Co? (W,337m)

c.     Mary Wilson, b 1806 (W)

d.     Dovey Wilson, b 1808 (W) (W)

        Austin Ward Wolcott [R2g2c1b], son of Aaron M Wolcott and Maria Lovina Merrill, was born 30 June 1874 at Athens, Bradford Co PA. He died in 1950. Austin married Cora L Wilcox about 1910 and lived next door to his sister Stella at Sayre. Cora was born in July 1881 at Smithfield, Bradford Co, daughter of James Gordon Wilcox and wife Mary Ellen Scott. Austin and Cora are buried together in Tioga Point Cemetery at Athens, with James Wilcox and wife Mary, all in the same plot. Austin worked in the same creamery where his brother-in-law George Norris worked. Cora had no children. In 1930 they lived at Sayre, and Austin was the proprietor of the dairy creamery. His name was then written down as “Lyman W Wolcott” for the census, but was of age to be Austin, and his wife was Cora. She was the age of Austin’s wife. Hence, someone gave the census taker the wrong name, or else he misunderstood. At the same time, Austin’s brother Lyman was then living at Sayre with his wife Lillian. Cora’s parents are buried in the same plot as Austin and Cora; Cora was shown in the 1900 census with her parents at Sayre. (W,M,B, 114bsuvwfc)

Elizabeth was born 21 December 1799 at Farmington, Hartford Co CT, daughter of Solomon Woodruff Merrill and Abigail Stoddard, and died 21 June 1878 at Millbrook, Mecosta Co MI. Ben died at Millbrook on 14 April 1878. In 1820 they were not found in Bradford Co, yet since their eldest children were born there, Ben and Elizabeth must have been living with older relatives. They were found in 1830 though, at Litchfield, living close to Silas Munn, John Wolcott, Daniel & Thomas Parks, Elijah Wolcott, Elisha, Thomas, & Eleazor Merrill, and was living next door to very elderly Silas Wolcott (Ben’s father). In 1840 Ben’s next door neighbor was Elijah Munn [R2g1c]. Also in 1840, an old woman born in the 1750s lived with them (Benjamin’s mother or mother-in-law?). In the mid-1840s Ben and Elizabeth moved to Tioga Co NY, the county just north of Bradford Co. They and their son Henry were the only Wolcott families in Tioga Co in 1850.

He was born in NY 5 November 1822 at Lebanon Spring, son of Paul Shumway and Mercy Gates. They lived at New Lebanon, Columbia Co NY in 1880. John was a carpenter, as was his father, and was a joiner. John had first married Jane Rich on 13 October 1850. She was born 18 April 1829, and died 29 May 1853 leaving one son. John then married Caroline.

Both are buried in Tioga Point Cemetery at Athens. When Patrick J applied for a passport in 1918, he claimed he was born at “Watkins, New York,” but that town does not exist. The closest name is Watkins Glen in Schuyler Co, just 40 miles northwest of Athens, PA. In the passport application, he stated that his parents lived at Watkins and at Ithaca, NY from 1838 to 1895. Patrick J, in 1918, lived at Athens, and was a machinist. The need for the passport was to do government work in France. (This was just at the end of WW I, so perhaps Patrick was being sent to France to help rebuild from the war damage.) They had five children, all born at Athens, Bradford Co PA-

1.     Maurice Wolcott Shannon, b 25 Jan 1895

2.     Marjorie H Shannon, b Aug 1898

3.     Maxwell J Shannon, b 1901

4.     Parker M Shannon, b 1903

He lived at Vernon in 1880 but in 1900 he lived at Omaha, NE, had married in 1892, and his sister Caroline lived with him. In 1910 his sister Fannie lived with him and his wife May _____ (neither sister was married then). Charles’ wife May was born in February 1869 in PA. Charles was a clerk for the government in 1900 and was a manager for a publishing business in 1910 and lived at Wilmette Village, Cook Co IL. They were not found after 1910. He and May had a son-

a.     Clifton Ellsworth Wolcott, b 27 May 1893 (198s, 88u,55v)

        Clara E Wolcott [R2g1c6g1], daughter of Louise A Carmer and a Mr Wolcott, was born 10 December 1896 at Athens, Bradford Co PA.

        Clifton Ellsworth Wolcott [R2g9h3a], son of Charles W Wolcott and May _____, was born 27 May 1893 at Eugene, OR. He lived at Omaha, NE with his parents in 1900, then at Wilmette Village, Cook Co IL in 1910, and at San Francisco, CA in June 1917. His draft registration in 1917 gave his full name and birth date, yet in 1920 he was still at San Francisco, was still single, and the census showed his name as Clinton Edward Wolcott, with all other information correct. His parents’ birth places matched for the parents of Charles Ellsworth Wolcott, and the age matched, so this must be the correct Clifton. He had not married by 1920, and was a clerk for a business on Mission St. He lived in a rooming house (different address from June 1917), so perhaps the home’s manager gave the information, incorrectly. (M,88u,55v,536w)

        Countess D Wolcott [R2g2j1], daughter of Amos Prentice Wolcott and Esther J Munn, was born 26 April 1852 at Litchfield, Bradford Co PA. She married her cousin Sylvester K Wolcott [R2g9g] in 1881. Her line is continued under his name.

        Dallas Wolcott [R2g2c4], son of Silas Park Wolcott and Maria McCullough, was born 22 December 1848 at Litchfield, Bradford Co PA. He died 27 September 1852 and was buried in State Line Cemetery at Litchfield with his father. He was age “13y 9m” and his gravestone also named his parents. (B,114nc)

        Donald P Wolcott [R2g2h8g2c], son of Bernard E Wolcott and Margaret D White, was born 4 May 1953 and died 6 November 1999. He was buried in Tioga Point Cemetery in Bradford Co. (114c)

        Dorcas Wolcott [R2g3], daughter of Margaret Rowan and Silas Wolcott, was born about 1783. She married Joseph Pew and lived near Ithaca, Tompkins Co NY. He was born in NJ on 10 August 1784, son of William Pew and Hannah Lacy, and died in October 1855. They lived in Tompkins Co in 1820 and 1830. In 1820 in Tompkins Co the Joseph Pew and his wife were of the right ages to be Dorcas’ family. In 1820, they likely could have been married about 20 years at the most. In their home then were children ranging in age between 18 to under age 10. Joseph Pew of the 1830 census was born in the 1780s. In their home in 1830, in addition to Joseph and Dorcas, was a couple born in the 1801-1810 years, plus a little girl under age 5. Since Dorcas and Joseph were of age to have a son or daughter born in the early 1800s, this couple could be their child and son / daughter-in-law. In 1840 there was no Joseph or Dorcas Pew living in Tompkins Co, but there were three adult Pew persons (Benjamin, born 1790s; Rachel, born 1790s and had five teenage children; and Richard Pew, born 1790s). Benjamin and Richard were apparently Joseph Pew’s brothers, and Rachel was a widowed sister-in-law. Joseph and Dorcas could have had about seven children, but it’s also just as likely that many of these children from the 1830 census could have been children of his brother John who died in 1821.

        Neither Joseph nor Dorcas were in Tompkins Co in 1840; they, or Joseph, had moved to New York City by 1840. When Dorcas died is not known, but it may have been in the 1830s because Joseph’s wife in 1840 was about ten years younger than Dorcas. In his home in 1840 were two young boys, one under age 5 and the other under age 10. These two boys could have been children from Joseph’s second wife. The youngest four children are likely those of Joseph and Dorcas, but the eldest three could easily be nephews, nieces, or hired farm hands -

Tompkins Co NY is two counties north of Bradford Co PA. In Joseph Pew’s home in 1820 was a young man, born 1795-1804. He could have been a younger brother of either Dorcas or Joseph. And living close by in 1820 was brother William, and Bartine Pew born between 1795-1804. The census writing is clear, so there cannot be an error in reading this name Bartine. He was the eldest son of Joseph’s eldest brother John.

From the 1850 census, Benjamin Pew was born in 1792 in NJ, and had a wife Nancy, born in 1798 in NJ. Rachel Pew was there in 1850, born in 1794 in NY, and living close to Benjamin. Richard Pew from the 1840 census was born in 1792 in NJ and his wife Hannah was born in NY in 1795. Other researchers show that Joseph Pew’s siblings were the above mentioned Richard and Benjamin, plus John Pew, born in 1779 in NJ, married Anna Cowell, and died in Tompkins Co in 1821; William, born in 1787 in NJ died in Tompkins Co NY in 1832, and married Rachel Lockey Genung who was born in NY in 1790 and died in Tompkins Co NY in 1863. And Elizabeth Pew, born in 1788 in NJ, died in 1837, and married Matthias Honness and had many children. Rachel from the 1840 census was the widow of William Pew; they had many children. (MA,W,54,102, 105,191ijkn,108k)

The name of Pewtown, now an area of Tompkins Co NY around the intersection of Honness Lane and Snyder Hill Rd and later called East Lawn, came from William Pew, one man in a caravan of pioneers who came from New Jersey in 1801, and who first began to farm and develop that area. With William were five sons, all of whom served in the War of 1812, and one of whom, Joseph, was elected a highway commissioner at the first Town of Ithaca meeting in April 1821.

Much of the reference material about Pewtown used for this story was prepared by Jennie Williams Comfort in pursuit of family history. Many of the details are to be found in genealogical history entitled Early Germans of New Jersey by T F Chambers which involves four counties in the Northwestern part of that state, Hunterdon, Warren, Morris and Sussex.

One William Pew was the first actual settler to have purchased land, 136 acres, between places called Pleasant Grove and Stephensburg. It was bought from a Thomas Schooley in 1773 in an area known as Schooley's Mountain.
“Why the elder William Pew settled among the (New Jersey) Germans is unknown," Mrs. Comfort had written," for traditions of the family claim the Pews to be of English descent from people of wealth......." Intermarriage with the German families is the most likely explanation.

The William Pew who guided his family to Tompkins County was a grandson of the other and was born near Schooley's Mountain in Washington Township, Morris County on March 29, 1752. He served as a private in the Revolution, and Married Hannah Lacey.

When he left New Jersey, it was not with the intention to seek a place to resettle. He was going to visit uncles in Canada. Hannah refused to undertake the trip unless the whole family could go. Not only were the five sons and one daughter in the party, but there was the wife of the oldest son, John, and their little boy.

They were riding in a sleigh on this journey, and stopped at a tavern on Ellis Hollow Road to rest, one night. The owner of the Tavern tried to sell his house and land to Pew, who declined. The travelers had not progressed very far beyond the tavern when they were forced to stop while Anna, Pew's daughter-in-law and wife of John, gave birth to her second child, a little girl who was named Margaret. While the New Jersey group waited, the tavern owner, who had learned about the delay, dropped by - not by accident. This time he was able to convince William Pew to buy his property. William and Hannah bought 600 acres on or near the Catskill Turnpike (now is Route 79) and gave each son a farm. The head of this family, Old William Pew, died in 1818 and was buried in East Lawn Cemetery, (once known as Pewtown Grave Yard). Hannah, a lady of Irish extraction and great vigor, lived to be 102 years of age and remained active most of her days.

The lone daughter of William and Hannah, Lizabeth, married Mautias Honness and they had 12 children. One, a daughter named Hannah, married Henry Merian and they had eight children. One was a daughter named Charlotte, who married a George Williams. Mrs Charlotte Williams died when her baby daughter, Jennie, was four months old.

The children of William Pew, the "founder of Pewtown" were: John, who lived in an old red house at Pewtown; William, the father of Dan; Joseph, who lived in Ithaca and in New York City; Elizabeth, who married Tyson Honness and lived between Pewtown and the Catskill turnpike; Richard, who kept his father's tavern, built the Mitchell brick house and later owned the Preswick Farm; Benjamin who lived on the west edge of Snyder Hill overlooking Pewtown. Later Benjamin Pew moved to Ithaca, dying at his home at the northwest corner of Seneca Street and Stewart Avenue. His son George N Pew lives at the old Benjamin Pew Home at East Lawn. His family is the last Pew family living at Pewtown.

        Earl Bowry Wolcott [R2g2h8d], son of Putnam Bureaugard Wolcott and Evelyn Cora Stedge, was born 5 December 1892 at Sayre, Bradford Co PA. He was a carpenter, had married Margaret Muir in 1917, and lived at Buffalo, NY in 1917. Margaret was born at Newark, NJ on 13 September 1893, daughter of Edward Muir and Cora Vanderbuilt, and died at Sayre on 12 October 1983. In 1920 Earl was a machinist and they lived at Rochester, NY. About 1923 he and his family were back at Sayre and he worked for the railroad. He died in July 1966 and was buried with Margaret in Tioga Point Cemetery in Bradford Co. They had four children by 1930-

From Margaret’s first marriage she had two children born in NY: Leman Eckenstein, born 10 January 1914, died in May 1973 and was buried Tioga Point Cemetery next to Margaret; and Clifford Eckenstein, born in 1917. Clifford lived at Sayre in 2006. (M,Z,114uvf, 196w)

        Earl R Wolcott [R2g9g2], son of Sylvester K Wolcott and Countess D Wolcott [R2g2j1], was born 9 March 1888 at Athens, Bradford Co PA. See Erle R Wolcott [R2g9g2].

        Edward Hastings Wolcott [R2g2d3d], son of Theron D Wolcott and Evaline L Hastings, was born and died in 1882 in Bradford Co PA. He was buried in Tioga Point Cemetery at Athens, close to his mother’s grave. (W,114vc)

        Elijah Wolcott [R2g2f], son of Elijah Micah Wolcott and Elizabeth Park, was born on 16 April 1816 in PA. He married Harriet Rose about 1839 and their first home was at Litchfield, Bradford Co PA next door to his widowed mother. In 1860 and 1870 they still lived at Litchfield. Harriet was born in PA in 1818 (age 30 in 1850, 41 in 1860). In 1880 they lived at Thurston, Steuben Co NY, and Harriet had a “dislocated ankle” then (probably a severe sprain). In 1900 Elijah lived with his daughter Rose at Liberty, McKean Co PA. He died soon after then, probably at his daughter’s home. They had at least eight children, all born at Litchfield, but none lived with them in 1880-

        Eliza C Wolcott [R2g2d7], daughter of Samuel Park Wolcott and Lydia Bidlack, was born in 1846 at Litchfield, Bradford Co PA. She married Archie McVaugh in 1873 and in 1900 they lived at Athens in Bradford Co. He was a railroad conductor in 1880 and a carpenter in 1900. He was born in Canada in May 1850; his mother was from Scotland and his father from England. Arch came to the USA in 1870. In 1910 they lived at Horseheads, NY, and he was then a retail merchant. Arch died in 1933 and Eliza died in 1912. They are buried in Tioga Point Cemetery at Athens. They had five children born at Sayre, Bradford Co. Eliza claimed four were still living in 1900, and five still living in 1910. Actually, four were alive in 1900 and three alive in 1910-

        Elijah Micah Wolcott [R2g2], son of Margaret Rowan and Silas Wolcott, was born 29 March 1781 in Cumberland Co PA. Elijah moved to Litchfield, Bradford Co PA in 1802 and married Elizabeth Park at Litchfield on 9 September 1802. She was born 26 January 1786 at Litchfield, daughter of Thomas Park (born 1745, died 1819) and Abigail Nesbit (born 1760, died 1843). After their marriage they later moved to Ithaca, Tompkins Co NY where he had previously lived. Elijah moved back to Litchfield years later, where he was killed on 30 January 1840 “by the cut of an axe” (gravestone inscription). They lived at Litchfield in 1830 and in 1840. He and Elizabeth are buried in Park Cemetery (now called State Line Cemetery) at Litchfield. His gravestone says he died “age 59y 10m 1d.” His age at death must be in error since it puts his birth date in March 1880, too soon after his elder sister Mary was born on 16 October 1779; Elijah must have been 58 years, 10 months, and 1 day when he died (see note below). Elizabeth died on 26 January 1873 at Litchfield, “age 86 yrs.” After Elijah died, she lived with her son Amos. They had at least eleven children-

In 1830 their next door neighbor was Thomas Park, born in the 1790s; he may have been Elizabeth’s younger brother.

In David Craft’s History of Bradford County 1770 - 1878, he named the nine children of Margaret Rowan [R2g] and her husband Silas Wolcott. Then with no explanation of who Mikah Wolcott was, Craft stated “Mikah Wolcott died Jan. 30, 1840, aged fifty-nine years, and his wife Jan. 26, 1873, aged eighty-five years. They had twelve children, as follows: Susannah, married Hiram Merrill, she died May 9, 1843, aged thirty-eight years; Thomas, married Eliza Gillett...” etc. Mikah (Micah) was therefore born about 1780 or 1781, and his wife (not named) was born about 1787. These dates confirm that Micah was a second or middle name for Elijah Wolcott.

        There is a bit of controversy over the birth date of Elijah. It was apparent in Craft’s history that he read the gravestone inscriptions to determine the birth and death dates of Micah and his wife. But other readings at much later dates (1980s?) say that Elijah died “age 59y 10m 1d” when he died. This pretty much agrees with what historian Craft said, although it is obvious that Craft just rounded off the year to 59 when it actually said “age 58y 10m 1d.” This would then put Elijah Micah Wolcott’s birth date at 29 March 1781. The later readings of these gravestones had to put up with many more decades of weathering. Old gravestone numbers, after they have weathered for many years, can make the numbers 8 and 9 look alike. Elijah Micah Wolcott’s elder sister Mary’s birth and death years were given, accurate to the day, in the History of Waverly, New York and Vicinity by Albertson. In that history book, Mary’s birth date was given as 16 Oct 1779 (no grave site was named). Elijah Wolcott’s birth date cannot be in March 1780 since this leaves only five months since Mary’s birth date. (MA, 100, 54,101,110, 119,JB, 114jkn)

        Elizabeth “Bessie” Wolcott [R2g2h9], daughter of William Reed Wolcott and Asenath Hotchkiss, was born 22 March 1866 (age 31 in 1900) at Litchfield, Bradford Co PA. She married Perry Milton Pitcher on 30 September 1885, probably in Bradford Co since they both lived there, and afterwards they lived at Buffalo, NY in 1910. Perry was born in July 1868 at Standing Stone, Bradford Co, son of George Washington Pitcher and Ellen Hock. He was a railroad engineer in 1910. In 1920 they were living back at Athens, and Perry was then a farmer. Bessie died 13 November 1945 at Waverly, NY; Perry died in 1930, probably at Rochester, NY where they lived in 1930. He was then a proprietor of a restaurant. Both are buried in Tioga Point Cemetery at Athens. They had two daughters, both born in Bradford Co PA-

        Ella I Wolcott [R2g2b5d], daughter of Franklin P Wolcott and Elizabeth Dell Voorhis, was born 3 November 1895 at Athens, Bradford Co PA, and grew up in Bradford Co. She lived with her brother and mother in the Bronx, NY City in 1930, never married, and died at Los Angeles, CA on 16 October 1995. Ella was a stenographer. (CAd,Z, 114uvw,598f)

        Ellsworth Wolcott [R2g9h], son of Benjamin Wolcott and Elizabeth Merrill, was born 11 June 1833 in Bradford Co PA. In 1860 he lived at Vernon, Shiawassee Co MI and worked for his first cousin Andrew W Reed [R2g8a] and his wife Cornelia McFail; a domestic worker in the Reed home in 1860 was Ann J Bristol, age 20. Ellsworth was a carpenter in 1880 at Vernon and had married Anna Janette Bristol in 1863. Anna was born at Oceoli, Livingston Co MI on 26 February 1840, and grew up at Howell in Livingston Co. She was eldest child of Hiram Bristol and Fannie Dibble. They were still living at Vernon in 1900. In 1910 Ellsworth was still at Vernon, but had retired, and he lived alone; Anna and her daughter Carolyn lived at Detroit in 1910. Ellsworth died 10 February 1914, probably in MI, and Anna then moved to Woodland, Yolo Co CA and lived there with her daughter Fannie. Anna died 14 November 1928, probably at her daughter Fannie’s home in either Yolo Co, or at Sacramento where Fannie died. Ellsworth and Anna had eight children, all born in MI. Five were still alive in 1910-

Livingston Co is the neighboring county of Shiawassee Co in southern MI. Hiram Bristol and Fanny Dibble married at Genoa, Livingston Co on 22 Nov 1838. Hiram was born 6 Jun 1810 in Onondaga Co NY, died 26 Jan 1886 in Spencer Twp, Kent Co MI; Fannie Dibble was born about 1815 in NY, and died in the 1840s in Livingston Co after 1844. (W,114k, 68n, 599mkn,198qrsuv, 148v,496w)

        Emily Wolcott [R2g9a], daughter of Benjamin Wolcott and Elizabeth Merrill, was born 10 May 1817, probably in Litchfield Twp, Bradford Co PA. No record of her was found as an adult, and she probably died young. (W,102)

        Emma Eudora Wolcott [R2g9d7], daughter of Henry Brown Wolcott and Ruth Taylor, was born 30 December 1861 at Litchfield, Bradford Co PA. She died 22 September 1863 at Litchfield, probably of the same illness that killed her next two older siblings two days prior. All three children were buried in State Line Cemetery at Litchfield. (W,112, 114c)

        Emma M Wolcott [R2g2d4], daughter son of Samuel Park Wolcott and Lydia Bidlack, was born 19 August 1841 in Bradford Co PA and died there on 3 September 1842. She was buried in Tioga Point Cemetery at Athens. (JB,114c)

        Emmeline Caroline Wolcott [R2g2h1], daughter of William Reed Wolcott and Asenath Hotchkiss, was born 7 June 1845 at Rome, Bradford Co PA. She married William Conrad on 16 July 1864 and they lived at Litchfield. William was born in June 1845 in PA and spent his teen years at Troy, Bradford Co. William died in the 1900s and Emma was a widow in 1910, living next door to her daughter Myrtle at Litchfield. In 1920 she lived with her brother Putnam at Sayre (and was age 77). They had two daughters-

        Erle R Wolcott [R2g9g2], son of Sylvester K Wolcott and Countess D Wolcott [R2g2j1], was born 9 March 1888 at Athens, Bradford Co PA. In his early years, he spelled his name as Erle, but used the Earl spelling after he was about age 30; in the Athens City directory of 1907 he was “Earl Wolcott” and was a plumber. He was a mail carrier in June 1917, and had married Grace May Morley in 1913. She was born at Sheshequin, Bradford Co in December 1897, daughter of Huston Morley and Frances I Chandler. Erle was a plumber in 1920, and had his own plumbing shop at Sayre in 1930. When he died in 1963 and was buried in Tioga Point Cemetery at Athens, his name on the gravestone was spelled Erle R Wolcott. Grace died in 1957 and Erle was buried next to her. They had three children, all born in Bradford Co-

        Everett Wolcott [R2g2i1], born in December 1846 in Bradford Co PA, lived with his uncle Amos Prentice Wolcott [R2g2j] and aunt Esther Munn from 1850 to 1880, and with aunt Esther in 1900. Everett never married. He was likely a son of one of Amos’ sisters, conceived out of wedlock. Of all of Amos’ brothers who could have been the father of Everett: Elijah married and had children born before and after Everett, so wasn’t likely the father; Samuel P married in 1834 and he and his wife were still alive into the 1880s, so he wasn’t likely the father of Everett; brother Silas P married in 1839 and he and his wife were still alive past 1870, so they are not likely the parents of Everett; Thomas P married about 1830 and he and his wife were alive into the 1870s, so they are not likely the parents; William R married in 1844 and he and his wife were alive into the 1870s, so probably were not Everett’s parents. That leaves the sisters of Amos who might be Everett’s mother. Hannah M was born in 1823 and died in 1898. She was not married by 1880, so could have been Everett’s mother. Louisa J was born in 1828 and married early in 1848, and was alive with her husband into the 1880s; she could have been the mother of Everett, then placed Everett into her brother Amos’s care since she was about to marry a new beau. Amos’s sister Maria C was born in 1814 and married in 1838, and was alive years after Everett was grown, so she also is not likely his mother. Marion E was born in 1831, married in 1857, and had many children afterwards; she could be, but was not likely a candidate to be Everett’s mother. Mary M was born in 1819 and married in 1839; she had children born before and after Everett, so was not his mother. Susannah P was born in 1805 and died in 1843, so could not be Everett’s mother. Therefore, with no definite proof, Everett’s parents were probably Hannah Moore Wolcott [R2g2i] and an unknown father. Until shown otherwise, Everett Wolcott’s mother is assumed to be Hannah Moore Wolcott, sister of Amos P Wolcott who raised him. (JY, 114nqrs)

        Fannie E Wolcott [R2g9h5], daughter of Ellsworth Wolcott and Anna Janette Bristol, was born 4 June 1874 in MI. She was a school teacher in 1900, and was boarding with 71 year old Sarah Lytle at Vernon, Shiawassee Co. In 1910 she was still single and lived with her brother Charles in Cook Co IL. Fannie was then a dressmaker. In 1920 she lived in Yolo Co CA at Woodland, and her mother lived with her. Fannie was then a “farmette” (female farmer?). She lived at Sacramento, CA in 1930 with her “sister” Alice, and died at Sacramento on 13 November 1951, so likely her mother died at her home in either Yolo Co or at Sacramento. Fannie never married. The sister she lived with in Sacramento was born in MI in 1893 (census in fo), when Fannie’s mother would have been age 53. Hence, Annie’s age is not accurate in the 1930 census, if she was a sister. Annie was married to Robert O Maples, who was born in TX in 1897. He and Annie married about 1927. (CAd,198su, 55v,496w, 497f)

        Ford Emery Wolcott [R2g2d8b], son of Samuel Franklin Wolcott and Florence Lamberson, was born 18 August 1886 at Litchfield, Bradford Co PA.
