Person:Zadoc Wickwire (1)

From Richard S. Holmes

I came across an email from Rick Wickwire showing the family of Zadoc Wickwire (here spelled Wickware) and Lovina Holmes, supposedly Hannah's sister according to Baker

Zadoc9 Wickware (Jeremiah8 Wickwire, Peter7, John6 Wickware, John5, John4, John3, John2, PB Thomas1) was born 20 Jan 1772, and died 4 Jul 1835 in Hamilton, NY. He married Lovina Holmes 1 Apr 1802, daughter of Jabez Holmes and Lydia Harris. She was born 31 Jan 1780, and died 20 Aug 1870.

Children of Zadoc Wickware and Lovina Holmes are:

   i.    Harriet S. Wickware, b. 25 May 1803.
   ii.    Aaron Burr Wickware, b. 30 Oct 1806; d. 15 May 1885, Eaton, NY.
   iii.    Lydia Harris Wickware, b. 5 May 1808; d. 6 Jan 1835.
   iv.    John Baker Wickware, b. 6 Sep 1817; d. 15 Dec 1825.

No sources are shown (probably a 1909 Wickwire genealogy, and maybe others), but I think the name of the third child is fairly convincing evidence that Lovina was indeed a daughter of Jabez and Lydia. This means the six boys shown in GBRNL are not the complete family.
