Query Text:
I am trying to trace my great great grand father's older brother Matthew Willis who immigrated to the USA between 1850 and 1860. Family consists of Matthew Willis born 1790 Langtree, Devon, England Wife Jenny/Jane born 1798 Buckland Monachrum, Devon, England Sons John born 1821 Buckland Monachrum, Devon, England Richard born 1823 Buckland Monachrum, Devon, England Philip born 1825 Buckland Monachrum, Devon, England Thomas born 1827 Buckland Monachrum, Devon, England William born 1829 Buckland Monachrum, Devon, England James A born 1832 Buckland Monachrum, Devon, England I have traced Matthew and his wife to Lancaster, Grant, Wisconsin and son John in 1870 Census. Matthew I believe died 1875 in Lancaster, Grant, Wisconsin. Son Thomas married Susan C Hoar in Grant, Wisconsin in 1863. It is believed that a g/son John may have enlisted during the Civil War. This is the only information I have and would like some kind soul to help me find out more and what happened to the family I live in the UK Looking forward to hearing from anybody who can help me.
