I have a date of 20 Feb 1831 as given in the Chism Bible. I believe I sent you a copy of that. Let me know if I did not, or if Anne Siler did not. I do not have a place. I am guessing Morgan Co MO where her family were although it may have been in Howard Co. I am sure it was in Missouri.

Oh dear. A can of worms again. I see that I have a child of John C. and Sarah Chism Williams being Colden C. Williams, born 21 April 1830. My source for this is an archives posting to this list. This child would have been born, then, 10 months before the marriage of this couple. Is he not a child of theirs, then? Is one of the dates wrong? Hmmmm...

I have no Colden C Williams born 21 Apr 1830. Doesn't mean there isn't one. And I have no Colden as son of Sarah and John C. Although by the normal naming patterns, there should be one.
