I posted some time ago my attempts to connect with anyone who might have some knowledge of the family of one Emma, Annie, or Amy Hicks, who was born about 1 April 1926, in Virginia. She died 26 February 1902, in Adams County, Iowa, probably Prescott, near Corning. There is a listing in the LDS Ancestry File, #M20J-WM, but that gives me very little knowledge of her parents or siblings. According to a monograph written by Everett Bonar in about 1925, she married David L. Bonar on 12 Dec 1847, in Marshall County, Virginia (now West Virginia). David was a widower, having had several children by his first wife, Sarah Bonar, including William Bonar, born in 1827. Emma had at least two children by David, being Nelson and John. Two other children took on the surname of Bonar, being Sarah Ann and James, but they were born prior to the reported date of the marriage of Emma and David in 1847, being 5 April 1845 and some time in 1847, respectively. That doesn't mean that they weren't biological children of David and Emma, since David was a widower for a long time before he remarried. Nelson was born in 1852 and John in 1850. I have been able to track down the various families of each of these (James Bonar was likely my great-grandfather and died in 1929 in the Military Hospital in Los Angeles, California). What I'm trying to find is the lineage of Emma, who apparently was illiterate. I have looked in Hicks families in the Panhandle of West Virginia without success. In the 1850 Virginia census, Turners District, Fauquier County, at p. 272, line 22, there is listed a Emma Hicks, age 57, a farmer, with $10,500 in Real property, born in Va, who might be her mother, if she were named for her. Anybody have any ideas? or Records? William J. Bonner, 3547 East Mackay Drive Meridian, ID 83642-3096 (208)888-4060 Home (208)867-8500 Cell (916)404-7041 FAX wjbonner@yahoo.com
