Hi --
I can't seem to avoid finding Capstack/icks being granted land patents in
Wisconsin. You may recall one for Edward Capstack I posted about
previously -- he received his 2 40-acre patents in 1857 and 1861, I believe.
I found one the other day for George Capstick, who purchased a 160-acre
patent in Waukesha county in 1855. I might have thought the two were
related, except these 2 places are on opposite sides of the state, which is
not small.
Hope this helps somebody...
