I am in dire need to get in touch with with any of the descendants of my great-grandparents. Jabez and Lydia (TAYLOR) WILSEY, THey were both born in Wyoming Co., PA. He in 1826, she in 1830. They moved to Grant Co about 1853 where their third child was born in January and died in Sept. He is buried in Dodge Cemetery alongside his granmother Elizabeth (Van TUYL) TAYLOR and his uncle Alexander TAYLOR. Jabez and Lydia had 8 children. They were: 1. Harriet B. 4 Aug 1848, in Wyoming Co., PA She married Ambrose MURRAY 12 Jan 1868 in Glen Haven. They later divorced and she moved to Colorado where she remarried to David HOPKIRK . She and Ambrose had 4 children all of whom were born in Grant Co. Jabes B. 1869; Ambrose B. 1872: Alice B. 1875: and Elizabeth B 1879. Harriet had at least two more chiildren in Colorado, David and Carrie HOPKIRK 2. Perry B. 4 Jan 1850 in Wyoming Co., PA. Never married. Died 17 Dec. 1921 at the Olds Soldiers Home in Kapispell, MT. 3. Jabez B. 13 Jan 1853,in Glen Haven Died 20 Sept 1853 all in Grant Co. 4. John H. B 1855, in Glen Haven, never married. Died Oct 1921 in Home Park, MT, buried in the Harvey plot in the City Cemetery in Guttenburg, IA 5. Melvina b 1857in Glen Haven , Mar to Luther ASCOUGH (?) in Glen Haven 6. Alice B.3 May, 1858 in Glen Haven, Mar 28 Dec 1873 in Elkader, IA. Lived in Guttenburg until 1918, then moved to MT and then on to OR, where she died 29 Aug, 1949. This is my grandmother 7. Byron B 1862 in Glen Haven 8. James B 1867 in Glen Haven. I would like to find some descendant of any of these children in hopes of finding out where exactly and when Jabez and Lydia died and are buried. I have a tin-type of Lydia TAYLOR WILSEY scratched on the back along with 1830-1880. And my mother remembered seeing Jabez at here older sister's funeral in Jan 1887 in Guttenburg. They did own a 7 plot cemetery lot at the Scott Cemetery in Glen Haven, but there is no record of anyone being buried there. Also there are two vacant plots in the HARVEY plot in the City Cemetery in Guttenburg, but again no record of any burials. Lydia's siblings, Alice B 1832, Mar. Hiram HUDSON in 1855: Melvina B 1837 Mar Byron HUDSON 13 Sep 1853. Alexander B 1835, D 1861 mar. Marie A. Lorenzo B 1843, D. Sep 1864 in Andersonville Prison during the Civil War, and Oscar died as a child. If anyone has any information of either of these families I would be so grateful to hear from them. I have all of Charles HARVEY and Alice's children and will be glad to share if anyone is interested in the entire family. Hopefully, Earlene Hutsell OK1WE1@aol.com
