Nance, There was a son of Jesse & Julia's who's name was Josiah who had a land patent in Sheridan Twnshp, Dunn County. Josiah Harmon was the father of William Samuel Harmon who left Wisconsin in the very early 1900,s. As far as I have been able to determine there wasn't any contact between Jesse or Josiah and William Samuel Harmon after the later left Wisconsin. It is possible the Julia Harmon sold the land to one Daniel D. Harmony before her death. A General Land Office record shows that Daniel D. Harmony purchased land described as the "Northeast fractional quarter of section two in twnshp 32, range 13 West which contained one hundred thirty-nine and eighty-three one hundredths of an acre. A July 3, 1888 certificate of marriage #00792 performed in Prairie Farms, Baron Co., listed the groom as Daniel Harmon, son of Jessie and Julia Harmon. I wonder if this additional information might be of assistance in locating these Harmons?Don ----- Original Message ----- From: Nance Sampson <nsampson@spacestar.net> To: <WIBARRON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 8:11 AM Subject: Re: [WIBARRON] A message from the list 'mom' > Icehouse wrote: > > > My name is Donald J.
