Great idea to post our lines! I will capitalize my line. I think I can confirm that I am a descendant of William Wilcoxson who came over in 1635 on the Ship Planter. I have his father listed as William Wilcoxson, Sr. born about 1560 in Derbyshire, England. No listing of his wife, but children were: George, WILLIAM, Anne, and Margaret. The son William came over to the New World in 1635, with his wife and infant son, John. Other children were: Joseph, Timothy, SAMUEL, Elizabeth, Hannah, Sarah, Obadiah, and Phoebe. 2nd generation: Samuel (1640) married Hannah Rice in Windsor, CT 1665. Children were: Samuel, Jr., WILLIAM, Joseph, and Margaret. 3rd generation: William (1670) married Elizabeth Wilson in Simsbury, Hartford, CT 1698/99. Children were: Mary, Elizabeth, William, Martha, AZARIAH, Amos, John and Daniel. 4th generation: Azariah (July 27, 1706) married Mary Sexton in Simsbury, CT December 15, 1726. Children were: Azariah, Elisha, Hannah, Mary, Lydia, Deziah, Elizabeth, Rachel, AARON, and Zeba. 5th generation: Aaron (May 29, 1745) married Irana Barnard in Simsbury, CT May 17, 1767. Children were: Borden, Joshua, Riverus, Aaron, Jr., and FREDERIC. 6th generation: Frederic (January 26, 1771) married Eunice Smith in Simsbury, CT August 20, 1792. Children were: Frederic, Jr., Harvey, Joseph, ERASTUS, Lucretia, and Emily. They were all born in Chenango County or Madison County, New York. 7th generation: Erastus (June 12, 1801) married Eunice May in Manlius, Onondago County, New York, April 22, 1827. Children were: RUFUS ERASTUS BARTON, Clinton, Harvey, George, Eunice (died at age 5), Henry, Eunice, Joseph, and Lucius. 8th generation: Rufus (May 19, 1828) married Caroline Elizabeth Craine in Onondago County, New York, November 10, 1859. Children were: Flora May, Jennie Amanda, Willard, Cora, Byron and Myron - twins, and ALMIRON HENRY. The first two children were born in Cayuga Co., NY and the five younger children were born in Winona Co., Minnesota. Almiron Henry Wilcox was my grandfather. He married Myrtle Mae Everly from Polk County, Missouri on October 27, 1901 in Marion County, Kansas. They lived for a time in Kansas and then moved to Crook Co., Wyoming. In the Spring of 1913, with five children, they decided to move to Canada. They set out overland with two wagons, a team of horses and a team of mules. The actual trip took several months and they wintered their first Canadian winter in Swift Current, Saskatchewan. They eventually homesteaded in North Eastern Alberta, Canada and raised a family of eleven children. Five of their children are living today, one of them being my Mother. The story of their trip to Canada was written out by one of the older children, he being about 5 when they made their trip. One tale that has been handed down is about my aunt who was a small baby when they left Wyoming. Along the way, they encountered some Native Americans and were offered 13 of the Chief's best horses for their little baby daughter. It must have been a very interesting time to live but also one fraught with hardship. Now if I could just find my Grandmother's family, the Everlys, my family tree would be almost complete! My great grandfather on her side signed up for the Civil War and gave his parents names as Ma and Pa Everly - he had never heard them called anything else!! I'm still looking for them...
