I was wondering if anybody had any info. on my g.g. grandfather John Wilson? He was married to Sarah a.k.a. (Candeskhawin) and they had three daughters, Julia, Ellen and Esther. I am curious to know who his parents were? Or his wife Sarahs parents? John was born in about 1835 and lived until 1915.
Thanks!! Lori

i don't have much.the 1880 US Census, Moody, Dakota Terr. lists a John Wilson Age40, occupation farmer, he and parents born Minnesota. His wife-Sarah Wilson age 43, she and her parents born Minn. A child is listed but I can't make out the name, but the age is 16 yrs. , born in Minn. ____________ the 1870 US Census for Elk Point, Brookings, Dakota lists: John Wilson Age 41 Farmer, born Minnesota Wife Sarah Wilson Age 42 born Minn. Julia Wilson Dau. Age 15 born Minn. _________________ I don't know if they are the same John Wilson, but that is what I have in my card files.

Hey thanks for the info. That's pretty much what I had too. I'm pretty sure that is the same John Wilson though.
