Hiram Wall married a Delila Clawson Jan. 30, 1851 in Adams County. On April 27, 1872 in
Wells Co. he married Jemima Cannady. This info is shown in "Indiana Marriages
1845-1920.
The 1870, Wells Co., IN. federal census shows a Hiram Wall(42), wife Delila(40)--
Allen(19), Lewis(15), Josephine(13), Melinda(11), Hiram Clay(7) {my g.grandfather}, and
Amos(4).
The 1880 census shows a Hiram Wall(52), wife Jemima(39),
and son Hiram Clay(17). The Wells Co. "Death Records 1883-1920" show a Hiram
Wall passing away at the age of 82 on June 8, 1910 in Nottingham Township.
There is evidence that Hiram Wall was born in NC. and that Samuel Wall was his father,
however I have not been able to fully ascertain this as a fact. I need to be sure that I
have the correct Hiram Wall connected to the correct Samuel Wall. Any help in this
endeavor would be sincerely appreciated.
