Re: Daniel Mckissick and Jane Wilson

Hi, Sherry...

I'm descended from John, son of Jane and Daniel, as far as we know.He had a child with Rebecca Bonham, daughter of Absalom and Rebecca Cox Bonham.That child was my gg grandfather, John Wilson McKisick.John and Rebecca didn't stay together, and John died young (in his thirties)in Bedford County, TN. All I can find on him is that he served in the war of 1812 alongside his brothers, James and David.I have proof of Rebecca as John Wilson McKisick's mother, but there's no marriage bond or other proof of a marriage.There are letters from cousins.Harmon Wilson McKisick, John Sr's brother, signed John Wilson's papers for him to join the MS/LA volunteers, who were headed for Texas in 1836.I also have a letter written by Lewis David McKisick, son of Harmon Wilson McKisick, from Memphis where he practiced law.

Most of the information we have is sketchy.

Please feel free to e-mail me.
