Samuel Berry Wyland, b.1863 Milesburg PA
I am looking for information on the ancestors of Samuel Berry Wyland, born 1 Jan 1863, Milesburg PA, died 12 Sept 1956, Lewistown, PA.He may be the son of Samuel B. Wyland, b. 1 Apr 1838 Rock Forge, PA.Samuel B. served in the Union Army during the Civil War, but his dates of service would permit his fathering Samuel Berry.Samuel B. was apparently a son of Jacob Wyland (b. 1807, Fayette Co., who married and then deserted Nancy Jacobs, b . 24 Nov 1813, Milesburg.Nancy died in 1893 in Bellefonte; Samuel B. died in Bellefonte in 1897.Samuel B. may have been married to Lavina Garrett in 1856.I don't know for certain that Samuel Berry is their son.Also, I have found no definite ancestors for Jacob or for Nancy, or for Lavina for that matter. Any help much appreciated.
