Dear Marilyn, Re: Digest V99 #39 This may or may not be relevant to your ancestors. Do you think the name WILSON was ever a surname of one of your ancestors? I was interested in the name WILSON in your message. My Mahlon James WARD was born in 1832 in Finlay and married 18 Jul 1861 to Francis [Fannie] Emily ROBERTS in Hancock County. I've been trying to find their parents and families. So as I was looking for WARDs, in the LDS-IGI file I found a Jesse WARD who who married Irena Ann WILSON abt. 1841 in Hancock County, OH. The dates are close enough that Jesse WARD would have been born about 1820 and might be an older brother of my Mahlon J. WARD. Hope you have a break thru in your research, Marilyn. Hang in there!
