Census
Could have had a sister named Elizabeth Tyson, born about 1810 in PA. I am taking a bit of a leap on this one, although I am pretty sure this is her at the Old Presbyterian Cemetery in Hellam. She was aged 70 - 8- 24.
Was in Wrightsville during the 1850, 1860, 1870 census. Was mentioned at the time of her father's death on 13 Mar 1876.
Was not mentioned in his father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. Was not listed in the 1850 census.
Was mentioned in the 1850 census. 1860 census all they had was Carrie. 1870 - Carpenter in WrightsvilleI, nformation from the 1870 census, taken in Wrightsville on 28th July, 1870. 1800 - Carpenter 1900- was s borough supervisior 1910 - living in Wrightsville Ward 3. He was a borough officer. He was living in the county of York during the 1910 Miracode Index. Was mentioned in his father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. Was living in Wrightsville during most of his life. Buried with Sarah, not to far from John A. Wilson. Died at 77 - 10 - 8.
Was not mentioned in his father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. Was mentioned in the 1850 census.
He was the head of the household in 1900 where Amelia and Tempest were living. They were in Wrightsville, York, PA at that time. The birthdate is on the census,but this doesn't fit any of the others I have (It matched the 1880 census). She had 7 children, 6 of who were living in 1900. 1880 census has him as 43, so I don't know if his birthdate was 1839 or 1837. I've got both. The 1850 census had him as 11. 1860 had him as 22. 1900 - he was a laborer. This family is a bit confusing. Mary, Emily and Thomas and Eva were mentioned inthe 1900 census. The rest were mentioned in the 1880 census (except Eva). Thomas has a 1880 and an 1882 birthdate. 1900 census he had a Oct 1836 birthdate. Was mentioned in her father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. Was mentioned in the 1850 census as 11 years old. Card file for headstone states that he was 66 - 4- 0. GAR.
Head of the household with sister Amelia, and brothers Tempest and John, and Thomas present. Living in Wrightsville, PA at the time. All census said he was single. Was mentioned in his father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. 1860 census he was 20 years old. Was mentioned in the 1850 census. Must have died before 1924, as at his brother John A's death only Tempest remained.
Was mentioned in the 1850 census as 7 years old. 1860 census he was 20. Was mentioned in her father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. 1880 - was living with Amelia, George W. and John A. Date from 1900 census when he was living with Amelia and George. All census saidhe was single. Tempest Wilson - 30 Sep 1925 - York Historical Society Wrightsville - Sep 30 - The funeral for Tempest Wilson was held this afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Willian Oleweiler. Interment in Fairview cemetery.
Date from 1900 census when she was living with Tempest and George. All census said she was single. I don't know about this death date (she was alive on Apr 25, 1910 during the census). 1880 census in Wrightsville showed her as the head of the household, with Tempest T, George W and John A. there. But there is a son named Joseph, aged 12 who isalso there. He is listed under Wilson, but who is he??? Also a 70 year old auntnamed Elizabeth Tyson (widowed), born in PA. Was mentioned in her father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. She was 16 during the 1860 census. Was mentioned in the 1850 census as 5 years old.
Was mentioned in her father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. Was not mentioned in the 1850 census.
She was listed on the 1850 census as Marcellius, 4 months old at the census (Aug7th) 1860 census she was 11. In the 1870 census, there was a Martha A. Wilson living with Lewis Flury (Flusy)family. It said she was 18 which doesn't really match with what we know. In 1870 she was living with her Father in Wrightsville, and is listed as Martha E. Was not mentioned in her father's will dated 13 Mar 1876.
In 1900 was living with George, et al. in Wrightsville in 1900. Might have been living with George and Tempest in 1920. It said he was 65, which doesn't quite fit. Says he was single. Was not mentioned in his father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. 1860 census he was 9. There was a John A. married to a Sarah Gibbs who had a child Charles W. born 29 Jun 1877. In the York Historical card file Jun 10 1924 - Wrightsville- John A Wilson, aged 71 years, 7 months and 5 days who died in Wrightsville on June 10, 1924. He died as a result of a stroke of Apoplexy. He was intered at Fairview cemetery. Only one brother Temple (Tempest) survives. Funeral will be held on Thurs afternoon at the home of Mrs. William Oleweiler, Wrightsville. Buried by himself. 71-7-5.
Was not in the 1860 census. May have been the child that died. Was not mentioned in her father's will dated 13 Mar 1876. Sharon Swope had her 1853 birthdate, I originally had a 1855 birthdate. Was not alive in 1924 when her brother John A. died. She had 5 children, 3 alive in 1900. The middle initial E. came from the 1920 census. She had 5 children, 2 who werealive.
