My great-great Grandfather 1823-1909, was married to Sarah Tallman, in Belmont, Co, Ohio, in 1846, as David McWylie. His first wife died and he married Helen Kenfield in 1855. I have no record of where they were married. My great-Grandfather, was George Kenfield Wiley. So apparantly David changed his name to Wiley. He may have Brothers John and James. There is a record of a John McWylie married to a Nancy Lonel, in Shelby, Tennessee, 1843, who may be a Brother. Due to the Civil War, there are no court house records prior to 1885.
I am searching for the ancestors of David McWylie, David McWiley, or David Wiley.
