They are buried in Hamilton Cemetery, Hamilton, IN. William H. was the brother of my great-great grandfather Josiah Wagoner. Josiah was married to Lucretia COSPER. After he died in 1877, she married Ely Clark and later Henry GURTNER. The parents of Josiah and William H. WAG(G)ONER were John WAG(G)ONER and Margaret OBERLIN. I believe John was a junior but I have yet to get any proof of that or details on his father. John and Margaret appear to have lived in Lawrence Twp., Stark Co. where they are in the 1840 census. John died in 1848 and Margaret is head of household in the 1850 DeKalb Co. census in Indiana. I'll provide you some info and then you tell me what you don't have so I can fill you in further. I would like to know about William H. Wagoner's descendants because I don't know any of them. I left Indiana in 1962 after graduation from Purdue and now live in Washington State. My father, John Wagoner, eventually moved the family to Muncie, IN, and died in 1956. John WAGONER, b. 1796 in PA or OH (probably PA) m. Margaret OBERLIN (probably daughter of Frederick OBERLIN who moved the family to Stark Co., OH). She was born abt. 1800 in PA. (If daughter of Frederick, in Cumberland Co., PA. Children: Mary Ann, b. Feb. 10, 1821 Elias, b. 1826 Maria, b. 1831 Josiah, b. May 11, 1833, d. Nov. 14, 1877 in Hamilton, IN. Buried in Hamilton Cemetery. M. Lucretia COSPER 1859. William H., b. March 29,1836, d. 1914. M. Ellen Shull, 1840-1932 Eliza Jane, b. 1840 Let me know what additional information you would like to have. I can provide a lot more. I would like to have William H.'s descendants and any other descendants of John and Margaret WAGONER. Regards, John DEAL WAGONER
