Sarah Wilks/Wilkes was born in May 1840 in Tipton County, Indiana. She
married John WOLFORD there in 1859 and moved to Clay County, Nebraska, after
the Civil War. She died in Nuckol's in 1918 at her daughter's house.
She was also an orphan. Her marriage or death records do not give her
parents. Does anyone have ANY idea how to run aground her parents? I looked
for WILKES/WILKS in the 1840 Tipton County census and they don't appear.
Anyone have any WILKES/WILKS ancestors in Tipton County, Indiana or
researching this segment of the WOLFORD-WILKS line? I have quite a bit on
her descedents to share.
