DAVIES I am seeking information on my great-grandfather, John DAVIES, who was born in Pennsylvania in 1847 of Welsh parents who moved to Highland, Iowa County, WI in the 1850s. His younger brothers and sisters were born in Highland. My grandfather (Earl DAVIES, b. 1891, d. 1973), reported that he had a cousin, Joe DAVIES, who lived in Highland. John DAVIES listed his name as John DAVIS when he ran away and enlisted for the civil war in Madison. Otherwise I have no information on my great-great-grandparents names. John Rapp (Jun 2005) DAVIES I would like to update my last post. Though my great-grandfather John DAVIES lived in Highland, I think his parents were Benjamin and Sarah DAVIES of Ridgeway, still in Iowa County. They had a child named John in 1845, which is the right year, who had left home by 1870. If anyone has information on their gravesites in or near Ridgeway or any other information on them and their descendants, including a Joe DAVIES or DAVIS, a cousin of my grandfather who lived in Highland, I would very much like to hear from them. John Rapp (Jun 2005) HOLMES Please confirm Harry A HOLMES born 19 Mar 1860 in Mineral Point, WI. Info on my Great Grandfather, parents and siblings is appreciated. Parents names: George W HOLMES and Elizabeth WEBB. Thank you. Ruth Schafer NOVAK Information on the wedding of John NOVAK or JF NOVAK to Anna PALEE on Nov 22 1892 Dodgeville, Iowa county Wis. Thanks. Marcie Ryan STAPLETON Hello, My grandmother Bridget Agnes STAPLETON was born in Ridgeway. She married Michael SHEA in Mazomanie 6/30/1896 and moved to Lone Rock Iowa.

Any further information that can be provided will be much appreciated. Sincerely, Charles Michael Field (Jun 2005)
