Source notes
- Paul W. Myers lists a Margaret among the children of Isaac Wimer & Margaret Robinson Wimer. John T. Wilson, their grandson, in 1980 said that he had not had an aunt Margaret, and believed it to be an erroneous listing. The 1910 census reports that Margaret Wimer gave birth to 8 children, 7 of whom were living in 1910, so the child that died must have been the Margaret that Paul Myers reports. We have spouse names for all the other children except Bertha, and she is still living by the 1920 census; therefore nine children survived.
