Stacey, After a little research, I was able to identify Wion, Lloyd Calvin,abt 1928. His father was Wion, Albert, May 1899. Albert's father was Wion, John William b.1850. Albert is a son from a second marriage to Melvina Cook. My Grandmother Wion, Nancy E b 1878 was a daughter of John W.Wion and his first wife Elizabeth Osborn b.1848. My records indicate that Lloyd Wion died 4 May 1999 and is burried in the Glendale Cemetary in Des Moines. How does your linage fit into this?
