Was in Edwards County Illinois in 1850 married to Malinda? with a child Mary b. 1849. He married Nancy Ann D. Pettigrew on July 4, 1865 in Edwards County and they had Martha Temperance, Joseph C., and Caleb H........Am trying to find name of first wife....also interested to know if Nancy had been married before as there are children Mary 20, William 15, and George 15 in the household in 1870 along with Martha 4. William and Nancy are my gggrandparents. William George went by the name George on all documentation that I have. Nancy (as the family stories go) was from the "Tennessee Pettigrews".
