Linda, Hi, I did find a little bit about this line, from census records. But not too much...... First off, they lived in Park township, in Sedgwick county, Kansas. I first found Nancy in the 1900 Sedgwick county directory index. Going to the directory, Park township - she is listed by herself, as Nancy H. Wilson. So I then went to the 1900 census.... there I found: on page 7, of the Park township census, family 121: 1)Marion Edwards, age 42, white, male, farmer, b. Aug 1827. Of Indiana, father birthplace-Nebraska, mothers birthplace-Indiana. 2)Katherine D., wife, age 36, white, female, b. Oct. 1863, Of MN. fathers birthplace-Kentucky, mothers birthplace-Tennessee. 3)Alverda(sp?) B. Klugh,niece,age 9,white,female, b. Mar 1891, Of In., father birthplace-Indiana, mothers birthplace-Indiana. 4)Nancy Wilson, mother-in-law, age 67, white,female, b. Aug 1802. Of TN. Father birthplace-TN, mothers birthplace-TN. 5)William McAmy, farm-hand,age 32, White,male, b. Feb 1868, of Missouri, father and mothers birthplace-unknown. Then I went to the 1880 census: Park township, Page 8 Family 85 1)John Wilson, age 52, Farmer, born-Ky, father-Va. mother-Va. 2)Nancy, wife, age 50, born-TN, father-TN, mother-TN. 3)unreadable, daughter, age 18, b.MN, 4)Catherine, daughter, age 16, b. MN, 5)Marion Edwards, son-in-law, age 25, b.IL And in the Sedgwick County Marriages, I found: Katie D. Wilson m. Marion Edwards, on March 18, 1883. Note: On the 1880 census, I couldnt read the name of the older daughter. It looked as though the name began with an S. But couldnt make it out for sure. Hope this helps you somewhat.
