Giles Wing No. 1036 (page 1706)
Dr. Joseph Smith Wing (4887) wrote Col. George W. Wing that his
grand-father (Giles 1036) was married but twice, as far as he had ever heard, and that
his second wife was always referred to as "Granny Buly" evidently a contraction for
Beulah.
In a letter dated February 22, 1862, written to Dr. Joseph Smith
Wing (4887) by his mother Amy (Pettis) wife of Joseph (2414) she says Giles (1036) married
Mary Cornwell (not Cornell, as at page 1706.)
His son (4884) Giles Joseph born Jan. 27, 1816; died Feb. 15, 1816,
aged 2 weeks and 6 days.
(At page 2193, the child born Jan. 27, 1816, is said to " have
married, had several children and resides in Utah.")
Matthew Wing No. 1037
(page 1706)
Matthew married his second wife, Keziah Jenkins, on January 25, 1787.
(page 2975)
Joseph Wing No. 2414 (page 1899)
His wife Amy Pettis, was born December 23, 1788.
Matthew Wing No. 2416
(page 1900)
In our previous accounts of him he is said to have married Anna Parr,
but Dr Joseph Smith Wing (4887) wrote to Our Historian under the date of April 10, 1903, that
"my uncle Matthew married Hannah Perry."
Elizabeth Wing No. 2418
(page 1900)
In this account the name is Elizabeth, but Dr. Joseph Smith Wing (4887)
wrote Col. George W. Wing that his grandfather Giles (1036) had a daughter Polly (contraction of
Mary or Margaret, but certainly not of Elizabeth) "who married a man by the name of Moshier. She
was always referred to by my mother (wife of Joseph 2414) as Aunt Polly Moshier".
As she was the sister of Dr. Wing's father, she would be his "Aunt Polly".
