His great-grandmother, Helen "Nellie" Wilder 1854-1894), married Henry Albert Gibbs (1850-1915). I have found that Helen's father was David, but that is about all I know.<br />Are any of those names familiar?<br />NancyNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314996675055139760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518704536624202067.post-6883559197550794082011-08-09T20:45:12.031-04:002011-08-09T20:45:12.031-04:00Nancy, I forgot to mention, I have mostly NE ances...Nancy, I forgot to mention, I have mostly NE ancestors, and a number of Wilders.Barbara Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440544740334032378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518704536624202067.post-39764546620130315922011-08-08T18:31:52.230-04:002011-08-08T18:31:52.230-04:00Thank you, Barbara.
