She was born in Wales in 1857 or 1858, but I can't track her immigration because I don't know her maiden name. However, I know they were strong members of the Episcopal Church there. I think one of the children was a minister there just after the turn of the century. > > According to the 1860 census, I believe Jesse's parents were Levy Sonn (Sohn?) and Sarah.
