Now I don't know if this information is correct, but is what I have. I also show a brother Rees and another brother Hiram. My parents and maternal Grandparents, Eldwin & Leelah BOLENDER, who lived in Bird City, Kansas, knew Wayne and Mary Wright. Mom was thinking that Wayne and Mary were killed in an auto accident. Joseph died and is buried there in St. Francis, Cheyenne County, cemetery.I will gladly share any and all information I can find. Rich & Terri Moberly Bartlesville, Oklahoma rmoberly@ionet.net home rmoberly@arvest.com work ---------------------------------------- Hi, my name is Linda Wildman and Joshua is my husband's ggg grandfather-George,Benjamin,Oliver,Joshua,Joseph etc. I can find no record of anymore family for him. I think I have the 1860 c as the last one. Do you have proof of death, will, land records, cemetary? According to handed down stories it is said he and his wife died in a carriage accident. Don't know if it is true.Joshua married Sarah Babbs 4 Dec 1834 out of Monthly Meeting.He was from a Quaker family.Sarah died in 25 April 1857 in Gallia Co, Ohio and buried in the Wildman cemetary which has since been moved. Hiram lived in Va and some of his sisters and brother Reese. All I'm missing on his is 1870 c . Children of Sarah and Joshua were Hiram, Elizabeth Ann, Martha Jane, Amanda Sarah, Oliver, Nancy Ellen, and Reese. Pricella had a child with her called Bushrod Davis b c 1854-55. Elwood A was born c1859 so would have been their child 1st born. Hoping to hear from you. Linda Wildman. |
