  • Notes 
    • I found the complete census records for Hannah Elizabeth (Megredy) Wilmer.
      Between these and the cemetery records we have a very good record of this
      family. Now Mary McGreedy and Mary McGritty (listed below) is actually Mary
      (Reynolds) Megredy - wife of Daniel Megredy and mother of Hannah Elizabeth
      (MEgredy) Wilmer. Mary was d/o John Reynolds and Hannah 'Annie' Knight and
      gd/o Benjamin Reynolds and Mary JOB, and gt gd/o Jacob Job and Rachel
      Brokesby.

      *At this time, these are not in the notes of Job(E) Legacy but will be on
      the next update.
