Hi Mitch, Thanks for the listing! I didn't write anything on Family Treemaker regarding Henry Wise, as I haven't been able to find anything about him. I have worked with Karen Furlong at the Richland/Mansfield library, and she has been very helpful. I really haven't done much work with those census records yet, and will try to pursue that a bit after the holidays. I only put into Family Tree Maker what I was sure of. Any info you find would be greatly appreciated. Perhaps putting this info on the net will yield some new information for me. Have a Merry Christmas, and let's keep in touch.
