David Wise of Madison Twp, Richland County, Ohio is online! http://web.tusco.net/wisenct/WiseRichCoCensus.htm http://web.tusco.net/wisenct/DavidWiseMadisonTwpRichlandCoOh.htm Hi Sally, Thanks for sending me your familytreemaker info on David Wise of Richland County, Ohio. I am not only interested in the Wises in my family but also any Wise related lines especially those with Ohio connections. One thing I found is that your FTM page does not list David's son Henry. On the 1850 census Henry is 10 years old. There is not a Henry listed in Madison Twp or anywhere in Richland County in 1860 but there is one in 1880. This Henry is about the right age to have fought in the Civil War and if so he would have a military file in the National Archives. David's 1840 census lists 6 indiviuals who could all be his children. 1 Male 40-50 1 Female 30-40 2 Males 20-30 1 Male 15-20 1 Male 10-15 (John A. ?) 1 Female 15-20 1 Female 5-10 If you do not already have the census records for all the Wises in Madison Township, I would try to get them. There are 3 other Wises listed in Madison township besides your David in 1830. These could be brothers or even one could be the father. I don't know when you left this area but the city of Canton, Ohio has an excellent genealogy depart at its city library. The next time I am there I'll try to see what I can find on David. Mitch Wise
