I thought that since I would be gone a couple days attending my SINEX - WILCOX Family Reunion and if I posted my "most wanted" WILCOX that he might be waiting for me upon my return <grin> I am desperately researching/looking for my great great grandfather Levi WILCOX b. ca 1830 or a "few" years earlier since he married November 24, 1853 Menard County, Illinois to Elizabeth ALKIRE. They had 12 children - some proven, some unproven - and as follows: Catherine b 1855 called Kitty, Ada N. 1857 unproven, George Benjamin b. April 25, 1858 (my great grandfather), Alice b. 1865 proven, Ellen b. 1867 proven, Jennie b. 1868 proven, Nancy b. 1869 proven, Laura Z. 1871 proven, Charles Edward b. February 28, 1873, David b. 1876 unproven, Odelia called Delia b. 1876 proven, Arthur Alkire b. July 4, 1881 proven & shown as 12th child of Levi Wilcox & Elizabeth Alkire WILCOX and all their children were born in Illinois. One census indicated Levi was born in Indiana with his mother born Ohio and father born New York but cannot follow any lead. Elizabeth died here in Washington State in 1892/3 and Levi disappeared from Tacoma, Washington in or after 1896. He was shown here with daughter Odelia & son Arthur. Does anyone think I have a chance of having him here on Sunday? <grin> Thank you. Antoinette [email protected]
