Thanks for your reply and info.Ephraim was married first to Matilda Susan McKissick b. 20 Sep 1851 in Warren, Monmouth County, Illinois.Monroe County, Iowa records (Book 4 page 274) show she married Ephraim on November 15, 1875.They had at least 6 children.She went by Tillie but Susan is on her headstone.She died June 15, 1897 in Jefferson Township, Wayne County, Iowa and is buried at the Cunningham Cemetery in Clay Township, Wayne County, Iowa.Marker has wife of E.S.
Matilda Susan's parents are William John McKissick and Jane Ann Martin. This is where it gets crazy as William and Jane are first cousins.Jane is the daughter of my husband's ggg grandfather William Martin.William McKissick is the son of my husband's ggg grandfather William Martin's sister Susan Martin McKissick.My husband's great grandfather Joseph Martin married Mary McKeeman (daughter of Isaac) and that is how we are related to the McKeemans!!!
Anyways, do you have any info on Isaac McKeeman especially as to where he died and is buried?Also, I don't know anything of his first wife, Patsy Black.They had one daughter Elizabeth.I know a little of the 2nd wife, Martha Ritchie.They had 5 children:Agnes Ritchie, Isabella, Daniel Hall, Sarah, and Martha.His third wife was Jane Hendricks.I know nothing here other than marriage date/place.I don't know of any children.Isaac's fourth wife is Hannah Jane Sylsby. I know more on her but not a lot.This is the wife my husband descends from.I believe they had 4 children.
Your info on the McKeemans sounds real interesting.Any photos of Daniel and Isabella and their children?What details do you have of them?I have Daniel born about 1777 in North Carolina - don't know his Mother's name.I have he died about 1856 in Brown County, Ohio.Daniel married Isabella August 27, 1801 in Lexington, Rockbridge County, Virginia and died abt. 1820 in Rockbridge County, Virginia.I believe Daniel married 2nd and had 2 kids:William and Isabella. He married 3rd to Jane Evans and had 2 kids:Mary and Madison.
Thanks again.
