My grandfather, Isaac E.(Edmond) WISE , b. 23 July 1862, Claiborne Par., La, was son of Daniel WISE. I have conflicting information on Daniel WISE. I have been told Daniel was born 16 Feb 1818. He d. 6 Dec. 1865.when his son was age 3. Then Isaac's mother died when he was age 4. Isaac E. lived in Winn Parish, LA Daniel Wise came to Louisiana in? His name is on a list "The Old Home Guard" which was commanded by Duke D.H.Hays, of Arcadia Parish, Louisiana, now of Red River Parish. Daniel WISE was released as POW at Vicksburg, MS 4 July 1863. He md. Martha Ann WILDER, b. 31 Dec 1843;d. 6 Mar 1866, Claiborne Parish, LA She was dau. of Edmond W. WILDER and Elizabeth LINDER. Daniel's Death Certificate shows he was born in New York, but this information was furnished by the wife of Isaac. Another source says Daniel was born in PA. I have never located Daniel WISE on any census in Louisiana. I believe there is a connection with an Isaac Alden who is shown on the 1850 Census for Bienville Par., LA. Isaac Alden signed as witness on Daniel WISE and Martha Ann WILDER Marriage Certificate. Also Daniel named his son Isaac. I hope Daniel's date of birth will help with someones missing Daniel WISE.
