Inquiry: William Wiley Guinn

Dear Mrs. Wagner, I love your Paristimes Pioneers Gwin/Guinn Coat of Arms webpage! Thank you for posting that information about the origin of the Guinn name!

I'm sure you get MANY requests from family historians but am hoping you won't mind one more from our family. We are trying to find the names of the parents and ancestors of my husband's great-great-grandfather William Wiley Guinn. Here is the information about him:

* William Wiley Guinn was born on 25 Dec 1834 in either Mississippi or Alabama (probably Mississippi).

* He was married to Nancy Emily Dunlap (1837 TN - 1918 AR) in about 1865 in probably Marion Township, Drew County, Arkansas.

* He died on 4 Sep 1902, probably in Saline Township, Drew County, Arkansas.

* He and his wife are buried in Rough and Ready Cemetery in Monticello, Drew County, Arkansas (Find a grave).

* His children were: Elminia/Emeline E. Guinn, John F.M. Guinn, James R.R. Guinn, Samuel L. Guinn, Susan B. Guinn, William Jefferson Guinn**, Alonzo N. Guinn.

** My husband descends through William Jefferson Guinn.

Thanks for any help or direction you might be able to give us! Also, thanks again for your family history webpages!" -- Kathryn, Virginia   |  View or Add Comments (1 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
