I'm seeking information about Ira J. Wilkins(DOB 1810 NY) and his family wife Mary L Wilkins(DOB 1818), Melvin C. Wilkins(DOB 1842 Mi), James H. Wilkins(DOB 1847 Mi) and Alza Wood(DOB 1848 MI). They settled in the Toledo area in either the late 1840s or early in 1859. Both Melvin and James served in the Civil War, Ira is listed in 'A History of Tama County Vol 1' as possibly coroner, Agent for the sale of Liquor and as Rev I.R. Wilkins as late as the 1880s. May have been involved with the Baptist Church. Alza was also listed as a teacher's assistant.
I have found information about Melvin, who settled in O'Brien County, Iowa in the 1880s but there is no information or grave information about the others.
