I seek descendants of Virgil and either or both of his wives (or knowledge that he never had children). Virgil P IRONS, born Cazenovia, Madison, NY 12 Oct 1835 to John F IRONS and Mary M CAULKINS, died 8 Apr 1912, possibly in Syracuse NY, possibly in Toledo OH. He graduated from Cazenovia Seminary in 1852. His first wife Lucy WILLIAMSON died 22 May 1863 in Syracuse NY. After her death and before 1875 Virgil married Ella BOOTH. Virgil was a merchant in Syracuse in 1875. Can anyone help? Marty Irons

In answer to your query about Virgil, I have access to Ancestry's images online for census. IRONS, VIRGIL* is in the 1860 census with no children NY-Madison, Township: Cezenovia Page: 074 Must have had children later because he is listed with children in the 1910 census in OH.
