Hello, I've been looking for family history. My grandfather was Francis Andrew Wilder (born in Oklahoma on june 27, 1911 and died June 20, 1986). His brothers were: David Cleo Wilder, Robert L. Wilder (1894-1967), William H. Wilder (1897-1934), and Levi Wilder all born in Oklahoma. I believe he had a couple sisters as well. His mother was Effie ellen (Cole) Wilder who was born in Ohio. As an infant she was in a wagon as a small child going to Nebraska. My ggrandfather Wilder's name was David Roscoe Wilder. It's told in the family that he came from Tennessee. I've found a David R. Wilder, son of Francis Andrew Jackson Wilder who was born around 1872. His father died in Arkansas after 1920 in Clayburne County Regarding Francis A.J. Wilder, their are census records found in 1850 (Marshall County, Tn, District 13, page 127A), 1860 (Marshall County, Tn. District 13, Mooresville, Page 113A), 1870 (Giles County, Tn, District 14, page 293), 1880 (Maury Co., Tn, C.D. 11, E.D. 167 page 336A), 1900 (Cleburne County, Ar, Clayton Township, E.D. 14, page 214B), 1910 (Cleburne County, Ar. Cadron Township, page 13A - Widower living with daughter Mary Garrett), and 1920 (Cleburne County, Ar, Quitman, Cadron Township, page 167B (widower living with daughter Mary Garrett). Even with all this information, I'm not able to link David R. Wilder to David Roscoe Wilder. The names line up. The dates line up. The locations line up. My cousin was working on this a number of years ago and found that our gg grandfather died March 11, 1920 in Quitman, Arkansas. Francis Andrew Wilder, my grandfather married my grandmother in 1929. She was Mary Etta Mason from Conway, Arkansas. She was born in Louisiana.
I'm trying to put this together, if anyone has any ideas and information, please respond.
Thank you, Bob ford
