I also have never heard of the Wise Book, would like to get a copy. I am looking for William Hunter Wise, born 8-24-1811 in North Carolina, have traced him to Gallatin, IL then to Allen Co, Kansas, but sure would like some information as where in NC he was born. Would he happen to be in the book? If not thanks anyway.
