Jean and John I'll jump in here cuz if you're gonna talk about the Endsley's of Sharp County then sooner or later you'll end up talking about my family. Jean and I have talked before and yes M. Caroline married William Lafayette Wiles. The Wiles are kin to my Ritchie family in Sharp and all the way back in Marshall and Maury Co TN. I guess the real question here is, "is M. Caroline the same person as Mellisa C. ? Here is the Endsley family in the 1880 census. 1880 Census Place: Richwoods, Sharp, Arkansas Source: FHL Film 1254057 National Archives Film T9-0057 Page 96D Relation Sex Marr Race Age Birthplace James H.

Thanks, Marcia. I am a wee bit behind on my mail. I can't recall...did I ask whether this same Wm Lafayette WILES was married to Martha ROGERS? I have two and suspect that they are the same William, but don't want to merge them, until I know. Did you find out if Mellissa and M. Caroline were one and the same? Thanks.
