Do you know where they married or anything else about them?That is so wild.We just spent thisWed. Thursday and Fri doing genealogy work.We went to Spencer Co. INwhich is the last place I have had any info on Delia.
We also went to Louisville, KY which is where she was born if she is my Delia (and I am sure she is) and found her father's and mother marriage.They were married in 1848.Her mother was Mary Jane Gregory (she was a ward of Samuel Matlock.Her father, mother and she are together in the 1850 census in Jefferson Co. KY, but by 1857 Hiram marries my great grandmother Emily Clark Casteel in Spencer Co. In and she is with them in Spencer Co. INinthe 1860 census and I can find no other clue of her.
I thought it might have been her who married the Meadows.
I started working on Genealogy many years ago and quit after my husband got killed and went back to college and raised 4 kids alone and just got back into it.I had lost many of myunproven notes in all the years and moving.
When I got back into it this year I found an old letter from a Mrs. Edith Wessler who had written a book on the Jossleyn's many years ago and I must have told her about the marriage of Delia's half sister Catherine Elizabeth Josley to a Dr. Paris and told her my aunt thought she had been married to a Meadows also.
I just found Catherine Elizabeth's great grand daughter through the internet (or someone on the internet).She and I are who were in Spencer Co. Friday.She has an old picture that was in her grandmother's old things and it has an old picture that looks like it says Willie and Roddie Meadows on the back, but you really cannot make it out.It could say most anything and Meadows.
If you have any further info on this particular family would love to hear from you and if you would like any of the info we have on the Josleyn's would be delighted to share with you.
Thanks so much.
