Michael, Here is some information regarding Edward Metcalf's family as well as Isabell and her siblings: 1880 Census, Glen Haven, Grant, Wisconsin Source: FHL Film 1255427 National Archives Film T9-1427 Page 118A Relation Sex Marr Race Age Birthplace Edward METCALF Self M W W 45 ENG Occ: Farmer Fa: ENG Mo: ENG George METCALF Son M D W 18 WI Occ: Works On Farm Fa: ENG Mo: ENG Edward METCALF Son M S W 16 WI Occ: Works On Farm Fa: ENG Mo: ENG Richard METCALF Son M S W 12 WI Occ: At School Fa: ENG Mo: ENG John METCALF Son M S W 10 WI Occ: At School Fa: ENG Mo: ENG Isabelle METCALF Dau F S W 8 WI Occ: At School Fa: ENG Mo: ENG M HATCHCROFT Other F S W 23 CAN Occ: Servant Fa: ENG Mo: ENG The oldest child George was born in WI about 1862, but I can't seem to locate any Edward Metcalf's of the right age or birthplace in the 1870 WI census index. Odd. 1860 Census, Glen Haven, Grant, WI, Pg. 188, 30 Jun 1860, Household 817 Edward Metcalf, 26, Farmer, $1900, $400, ENG Hannah, 27, ENG James M., 8/12 months, WI Odd again, this seems to be them. In Glen Haven in 1860 and 1870, but not there is 1870. Also, based on the 1860 census, Edward and Hannah had probably only been married about a year. But where did they marry? Not in Grant Co. so far as I can tell. In 1860 Glen Haven, Household 813 was a George and Sarah Metcalf, possibly a brother to Edward. A George Metcalf married Sarah Ray on 25 Mar 1855 in Grant Co. Recorded in Book 1, Page 264. This George was recorded as the son of George and Ann (Unknown) Metcalf. Who knows, maybe a possibility. Household 626 had a Matthew and Hannah Metcalf. Household 628 a William and Elizabeth Metcalf. All of these Metcalf men were born in England and at least some of them were probably related. Per the Grant Co. marriage records: George William Metcalf married Mary Elena Hutchcroft, 22 Feb 1885, recorded in Bk. 10, Page 288. George recorded as the son of Edward and Hannah (Unknown) Metcalf. Mary the daughter of Robert and Jane (Unknown) Hutchcroft. Belle Metcalf married George E. Hutchcroft, 29 Dec 1886, recorded in Bk. 10, Page 387. Belle recorded as the daughter of Edward and Hannah (Unknown) Metcalf. George the son of Thomas and Jane (Unknown) Hutchcroft. Interesting, based on the death's listed further on, it would appear that Mary Elena and George E. were siblings. Their father seems to be Thomas Hutchcroft. The name Robert must have been an error or a middle name. Edward Metcalf married Ida May Hutchcroft, 26 Dec 1900, recorded in Book 13, Pg. 51. Edward recorded as the son of Edward and Hanah (Binks) Metcalf. Ida May the daughter of Unknown parents. (They may be on the marriage records, but aren't in my marriage book. Hmm, another Hutchcroft; probably related is some manner.) Per the Grant Co. death records: Edward Grant Metcalf, age 47, married, died 12 Apr 1911, recorded in Book 12, Pg. 515. Edward recorded as the son of Edward and Hannah (Binks) Metcalf. George William Metcalf, age 67, married to Mary Hutchcroft, died 10 Feb 1930, recorded in Book 22, Page 470. George W. recorded as the son of Edward and Hannah (Binks) Metcalf. Isabel (Metcalf) Hutchcroft, age 55, married to George Hutchcroft, died 26 Oct 1926, recorded in Book 19, Pg. 552. Isabel recorded as the daughter of Edward and Hannah (Binks) Metcalf. Mary (Hutchcroft) Metcalf, age 57, died 5 Apr 1914, recorded in Book 13, Pg. 12. Mary recorded as the daughter of Thomas and Jane (Killenbeck) Hutchcroft. George Ellsworth Hutchcroft, married (to Belle??), age 58, died 2 Nov 1916, recorded in Book 6, Page 358. George recorded as the son of Thomas and Jane (Killenbeck) Hutchcroft.
