This Jesse is the brother of a current Ancestry user that I happen to share related DNA traits with. I'm currently in touch with his sister and working on a common ancestral link. Since my Wise branch only goes back as far as my grandfather (b abt 1880) I'm afraid I couldn't as of yet be of help to you however I'll continue to check these notes as I gain a foothold on gramps. BTW, I encourage you and all other Wise's out there to buy a Y-DNA kit from Ancestry and get the Wise males in your family swabbed. This stuff works but is only as good as the people who have actually submitted a DNA sample. Jeff Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
