Israel Gilham had 8 children.Calvin, Mary, Allen, Martha, John, James, William and Melissa.I understand there may have been more children.William Gilham was my dad's grandfather.William was born in 1855 in Grundy County, Missouri and died in 1941 in Cut Bank, MT.He married Josephine Cobell, a member of the Blackfeet Tribe.He and Josephine had three children, William Gilham, Mose Gilham and Calvin Gilham.They are all deceased.Your gg Calvin would be an uncle to myself, my dad and his dad.I have more information so let me know if you want to know anything else.Apparently, some of the Gilham's came to Montana and settled in Fort Benton.This is where my grandfather met Josephine Cobell.They then ranched west of Cut Bank for many years.
Getting back to Calvin.He was born January 13, 1838 in Morristown, Belmont County, Ohio.He died April 5, 1923 in Trenton.He married Melissa Dennis Merrill on December 23, 1861 in Trenton, MO.
Look forward to hearing from you again.
