The family arrived in New York on Aug. 26th,1867. In the 1880 United States Census I have found the family (now written as “Wilman”) in Utica/Oneida County/New York with two more children: Charles (*ab. 1869 in NY) and Louisa (*ab. 1871 in NY). After that I did not find any more information in the 1890 Census or other sources about the family (perhaps I made some mistakes when looking online into the 1890 Census data).
