Morning Dale and Vera
Thanks for the info

Still after the family of great grandma Sophronia Davenport ( Wiseman )
Montgomery. We have two direction we are going right now. One of the
directions we are going is she may be the grand daughter of Martin
Thomas Wiseman, Sr born about 1797 and Ann Ennis. That would make her
the daughter of one of the below. We are going to build a tree with all
the info we have and can get on each of them. So as to take them out of
the running one at a time. With the info you have sent here some what
takes William Wallace Wiseman out because he has a daughter Sarah /
Sophronia Francis WISEMAN born February 08, 1856 in Gold Run, Placer
County, California. Died November 09, 1936 in Kaweah, Tulare County,
California. Married John Abbott EMERY born Abt. 1848 in Mass. Married:
Abt. 1875. We know ours was born February 24, 1851. Died May 08, 1904.
Married to James Ferguson Montgomery. He also has a son Richard Bell
Wiseman born September 04, 1851. That would have him being born only 6
Months after our Sophronia.

The other direction is that she may be the grand daughter of
Glover Davenport Wiseman. In a E-mail from Harriett Beach to Judy dated
4 January 2001. She has:
I've never come across Sophonia Davenport Wiseman. she isn't Martin's
daughter unless he married again after the 1850 census. By 1850 he was
53 and his twins were 16. Martin's sons have been pretty well researched
and she doesn't seem to fit with any of them. On the Fulton County 1850
census there are three Wiseman couples that could be the parents of a
child born the next year. They are all in Union Township on page 158 of
the census, Thomas and Mary, Absolem and Nancy, and Davenport and
Matilda. I don't know whether these men were brothers or cousins or
what. I've done a pretty thorough job of documenting Martin's sons
William Wallace Wiseman and Jonathon Tipton Wiseman and the daughter
Elizabeth. There is evidence that Elizabeth and the twins, Jonathon and
Absolem were' not the children of Ann Ennis. There mother was probably
Sarah Moore. I don't know when Martin's first wife died nor do I know
when he married Sarah. There is no evidence of Jonathon twin, Absolem
after 1850 but family lore says he was killed in a horse racing accident
as a teenager. William W., his wife Frances Morris, their infant son and
Johnathon came west in 1852. I think by that time Martin and Absolem
were both dead and Jonathon's sisters were both married.
Don't give a lot of credence to the fact that the censuses say that
Sophonia's parents were born in Arkansas. They may or may not have been.
All of Martin's kids were born in Tennessee.
