I am trying to verify the origins of Samuel WISE b 1785 in VA, died aft
Sept 1865 in Ripley co IN. Wife was Elizabeth ???. Her maiden name is
listed on a marriage record for her son Jonathan Wise. It is very
difficult to read but could be Gordeth or Gorden. Because Samuel named a
son Tully R WISE, I believe he was connected to the Accomack co VA Wises.
Samuel was probably in Clermont co OH around 1820 with a Charles Wise (he
named a son Charles too) and was in Franklin co IN by 1830 and Ripley co by
1850. His sons were William, Tully (Robert), Charles B, George W, Parker,
and Jonathan. I would also like to know where any of the Wises may have
been buried. I have looked through all of the cemetery records of Toph and
can not find them anywhere.
If you would like to exchange information, please contact me at my email
address below.
Thanks
