Where would you look for imfomation on he early settlers in Middlefork especially around
around 1890 -1905.Is there any one I can contact about possible births deaths marriges ih the area especiallyin late 1890. I am looking for a marriage and death of a William? K kimball and later a John Martin to Mary Lucille Wilson( Bruner) who parents were a William Harker Wilson and Emma Harrison. One (may be the Kimball) may have occured in 1902 or after her marriage to Guy L Brunerin 1912. I have placed her in Middlefork with her children and her father and mother and sister? Hazel wilson in 1920 as a widow. Feel free to forword this to anyone who may help me.Thank You Tom Quyle
