My notes from various sources state that John R. Boggs was killed at Gettysburg, hit in the head by a cannonball. His wife was Ursley Ison. After his death, she remarried and John.s descendants live in the state of Washington. John was the son of William Boggs and Anna Johnson. William was the son of John O. Boggs and Nancy Wells. I do not know if this is the John R. Boggs you are searching for. good hunting, John Holbrook
