    3. Mornin Mary Like I said seems every time I put my nose in this tree thing I stir it up. Over the years trying to get to Grandma Sophronia's family we have got a lot of information put together on the Wisemans. Some right, some has turned out to be wrong. In this case talked to Judy and she said she had put the info in the tree wrong. Should have been died in Fulton County Arkansas. Sure glad to get corrections. Thanks for the heads up. JIM M.
