Yesterday, my post covered William and Polly’s grandchildren born to the eldest four of their own children who married and left descendants. Today, I’ve added in the grandchildren of the four youngest of their children who left descendants.

She was born 9 August 1856, Hampshire County, West Virginia; died 29 March 1928, Rock County, Wisconsin. It appears that Mary Love had no children.

Davis, born c1848, Illinois was head of household with three adult children all born in Missouri and a toddler living in Payne Coounty, Oklahoma in 1910.
