My G.G.Grandfather Franklin Augustus Wise was born in 1841, I believe in Stark Co. Ohio, between Canton and Akron, and married Susannah Hill b. 1844. I have a copy of his civil war diary that I remember hearing about from my grandpa Roger Short. I finally saw the actual diary about 20 years ago in Cleve. at the Western Reserve Hist.Soc. Not sure how many children Franklin had, I know of at least 9. My g. grandma was Mary A. Wise Short b.1878 d. 1964. I only remember seeing her once or twice. I'm pretty new to this and most dates and facts are in a flux right now and incomplete. I have no photos or items from that side of my family so am interested in any and all photos you may be able to share with me and my family. Thanks so much and hopefully it's the same Franklin Wise family. Steve Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
