      1. Censuses:
      1860 US: Brecksville Twp., Cuyahoga, Ohio, p. 61, 23 Jun 1860, household 484:
      Lyman C. Wing, 51, farmer, b. Chester, VT
      Rhoda A., 41, b. Northhampton, Mass.
      Ira G., 4, b. Naples, NY
      (Chester is in Rockingham Co.; Northhampton is in Hampshire Co. just north of Hampden Co.; Naples is in Ontario Co.)

      Surprisingly they are again listed in the 1860 census. Must have been between moves. They probably were in Brecksville in June and then in Boston Twp. in July and thus counted twice. Curious lack of last names for Lyman and Ira.
      1860 US: Akron P.O., Boston Twp., Summit, Ohio, household 1606, 13 Jul 1860, p. 193.
      Lyman Corall, 51, VT.
      Rhoda A. Wing, 41, MA.
      Ira Gardner, 4, NY.
      There is a Jerome Wing, 22, OH living next door with a wife Charlotte, 21, NY, and a dau. Molvina, 11/12, OH.

      1880 US: Chautauqua, Chautauqua, New York, NA T9-0815, FHL 1254815, p. 104B:
      Lyman C. Wing, widower, 70, VT VT VT, farmer.
      (From NYgenweb: This census record is for the Chautauqua Co Alms house or Poor House. The Alms House/Poor Farm was located on 440 acres in Dewittville, NY.

      3. Lyman and Rhoda Wing appear to have had only one son according to the quote from the book "The Israel Barlow Story" as cited below. The book on page 17 has photos of this son Ira Wing and his wife Elizabeth Cardinal. Using Ancestry.com 28 Nov 2002: one interesting database ":2078492" has Ira Wing born 1856 in New York State marrying Elizabeth Cardinal 14 Nov 1881 at St. Mary's Church in Cheboygan, MI. She was b. 1863 in New York state and died 17 Apr 1943 in Cheboygan. His parents are listed as Lyman Wing and Rhoda Baron [Barlow] but with no vital data. Her parents are John Cardinal and Felicite Provost both of Quebec. They have three children: Marie Charlotte, b. 1888; Mabel Agnes, b. 1889; and Orville Peter, b. 1893. [Note that Ira G., son of Lyman and Rhoda, and husband of Eliz. Cardinal, shows up in LDS Ancestral File, b. 19 Oct 1856 at Chautauqua, NY and d. 21 Dec 1940 at Cheboygan.]

      4. "The Israel Barlow Story," pg. 311, in a letter written by Israel Barlow to his wife, Sep. 1853, from a visit he was making to the Nauvoo and Rock Island area while enroute from Utah to New York: "I have heard from my long lost sister, so tell Julian [Julia Ann Lockwood Hales]. She now lives at Debuke [Dubuque, Iowa] or did one year ago. Her health from there was tolerable. Comfortable but not wealthy. If I had time I should go and see them. His name is Simon [Lyman?] Wing. Has one son nearly grown and all the children they have."

      5. FHL book 929.273 A1 No. 3748 "The Wing Family of the United States of America and Canada," by Fern Ella Wing Reid, 1982, p. 13 - I am unsure of the accuracy of a son Otis since she reports an 18 year spread to the next Child:
      "Lyman Carroll Wing born 1815 died 14 Jun 1833, son of Lyman Wing, married Rhoda Almira Barlow born 19 Nov 1820, Granville, Mass., died 15 Apr 1876 dau. of Jonathan and Annie Gillett Barlow." Children:
      1. Otis Wing born 1838, N.Y. md. Lottie of Chautauqua, N.Y.
      2. Dau. born 19 Oct 1856 died 19 Oct 1856 twin.
      3. Ira Gardner Wing born 19 Oct 1856 (twin) died 21 Dec 1940 married 18 Nov 1881 Elizabeth Cardinal born 23 apr 1862 died 20 apr 1942 dau. of John and Sophia Povost Cardinal. Seven children of this couple with additional extensive descendancy follows in the book.
      Also in the same book on a different page 13, the following family group is reported in which Lyman Carroll may have been a child but is not so noted in the book. My supposition is from the common names and that the elder Lyman was born in Rockingham: "The family of Thomas and Phoebe Ward Wing are as follows:
      1. Thomas Wing, born 1765 Ashford, Conn. Married 1785 Lois Partridge, died 1802. Married (2nd) Sarah Sperry, daughter of William Spery of Bethany Conn. Sarah Sperry married (2nd) Brisbin Turner. [Children:]
      1. Lyman Wing born 28 Sept 1786 Rockingham, VT.
      1. Cora Wing
      2. Eliza Wing
      3. Hannah Wing
      4. Otis Wing
      5. Gardner Wing
      [6. My supposition that Lyman Carroll Wing fits here]
      Other descendants follow of both Thomas and Phoebe and of Lyman.

      6. Email of Ralph Clark 2 Aug 2005 [rbclark2690@infowest.com]: "I was going over your World Connect (WC) ID # I2668 on Rhoda Almira Barlow, daughter of Jonathan Barlow and Annis Gillett. [[You dated the search on www.rootsweb.com <http://www.rootsweb.com> on 28 Nov 2002.]] I agree that the information about Lyman Wing and Rhoda is scanty at best. I could not find them on any census records. You gave quite a bit of information about Ira G. (Gardner) Wing and Elizabeth Cardinal, son of Lyman Wing and Rhoda Barlow. I could not find the one entry you refer to (ID # I2078492). I found other WC entries giving the information you report in "RESEARCH NOTES." The best ones on Internet (1 Aug 2005) were ID # I532136567 and I532136568. The other WC entries did not give much information. Both of the entries I mention gave listing of five children to Ira and Elizabeth (Lizzie) - Walter, Elmer, Marie Charlotte, Mabel Agnes, and Orville Peter. Only estimated dates of birth were provided for three of these Children. However, under the dependancy and register icons were found names of spouses for each of the five and names and dates of children for three of the children.
      In addition, I found Ira and Lizzie on the 1910 US census in Cheboygan, MI with two children (Walter and Orville). The interesting item in this census entry was that it listed Lizzie as being mother of seven children with six living. Only five children were listed in any of the WCs. The WC for Ira and Elizabeth lists descendants, and two children (Walter and Elmer) had no children listed. These two children were found in the 1920 US census (Michigan, Cheboygan) to have fairly large families (Elmer with 8 and Walter with 5 children in 1920). The wife of Walter was not a Mary as listed in descendants part of the WC listing, but Elizabeth. I have yet to check the girl's progenies as listed under Ira/Elizabeth's WC (ID # I532136567).
      In addition, I checked on World Connect for any entries of these children and I came up with nothing, except the descendancy and register lists under Ira/Elizabeth. However, I went to www.familysearch.org and found considerable information about these five children, including full birth dates and places of birth. Some of the names came up on the SSDI as well. Most have had temple ordinance work done for them.
      I did find Ira Wing / Elizabeth Cardinal five childrens' data in 1910 and 1920 US censuses. All were in Michigan. Said that 2 children are still missing with appropriate data assuming the 1910 census is correct that Elizabeth had 7 children with 6 living. The 1910 census lists Ira Wing born in New York with his father being born in Vermont and mother in Connecticut. Elizabeth is listed as being born in New York with both parents being born in Canada. The children list both of their parent's birth in New York in the census records."
