Our Bert Carr family from Daviess Co IN went to Battle Creek Michigan by
1930. We do not know the Wilkinson name.
However, other Daviess Co families also went to Battle Creek:
Edmondson, Freed, Mason, Heshelman
Wish we could help!
John Carr

Samuel was born in England about 1863 to John and Elizabeth Wilkinson,
both born in Scotland. That family moved to Canada about 1870, and I find
them listed in ND in 1885. Samuel and 'Nannie' married in 1886 in Daviess,
IN, and evidently lived there until at least 1895. They next show up in
both 1910 and 1920>IN>Marion>Center censuses, indicating children George
Roy, Flora, and Samuel, Jr. I can't find them anywhere in the 1900 census.
In the 1930>Michigan>Calhoun>Battle Creek census, Samuel Jr. is listed as
widowed, living with his brother, Roy, and mother Nannie L, 73, widowed.
Have lots of questions about these folks. Thanks for any help with them,
Peggy Hendricks
