      Now Col Edwin W. Wilmer was born September 10, 1819 Smyrna, Delaware and died January 27, 1888 Govanstown, Baltimore Co., Maryland, He was the s/o Edward Price Wilmer and Rachel Wilson and grandson of So he himself was not a Job(e) descendant. He married Hannah Elizabeth Megredy (a double Jobe descendant) on April 11, 1839 Cecil Co., Maryland. She was the d/o Daniel Megredy and Mary Reynolds. Daniel Megredy was s/o John Megredy and Elizabeth Maxwell Job, gd/o Archibald 'Arch' Job and Margaret Rees, and gt gd/o Thomas Vernon Job and Elizabeth Maxwell and gt gt gd/o Andrew Job JUNIOR. Mary Reynolds was d/o John Reynolds and Hannah 'Annie' Knight, gd/o Benjamin Reynolds and Mary Job, gt gd/o Jacob Job and Rachel Brokesby, and gt gt gd/o Andrew Job JUNIOR.
      Now M. W. Blair would be Morris William Blair born June 20, 1825 Pike Co., Illinois and died 1912. He was the s/o David Evans Blair and Sarah Job, gs/o Morris Morrico Job and Lidia Bond, gt gs/o Archibald 'Arch' Job and Margaret Rees.
      So BOTH the wife of Col. Edwin W. Wilmer and M. W. Blair descend from Archibald Job and Margaret Rees. So on the closest Job(e) connection Col. Wilmer's wife, Hannah Elizabeth (Megredy) Blair and M. W. Blair were 2nd cousins. Hannah's father, Daniel Megredy and M. W. Blair's mother, Sarah (Job) Blair were 1st cousins, Hannah's grandmother, Elizabeth (Job) Megredy and M. W. Blair's grandfather, Morris Job were siblings. But don't forget that Col Wilmer's wife also had the Job connection through Andrew's son, Jacob.

      Colonel Wilmer wrote a series of interesting articles for the Smyrna Times which appeared in 1880. They were reminiscences of what Smyrna was like 50 years ago (therefore in the years 1830 or so). They were reproduced (in part) in Feb of 1931 in that same newspaper. from The Cecil Whig, Elkton, 1888: Cecil Co., MD Saturday, February 4, 1888:
      Death of Col. Edwin Wilmer. (NOTE: This article is abridged due to its length)
      As announced briefly in our last issue Col. Edwin Wilmer died suddenly at his residence at Govanstown, Baltimore Co.,, at a very early hour on Friday morning of last week. He had been suffering from cold and shortness of breath. The cause of death was paralysis of the heart. Col. Edwin Wilmer was in his 69th year, having been born September 10, 1819, in Smyrna, Del. His parents were Edward Price Wilmer and Rachael (Wilson) Wilmer. His grandfather, Dr. John Lambert Wilmer was the fourth generation in descent from Simon Wilmer the progenitor of the family in America, who emigrated from England in 1660 and settled in Kent, in the Province of
      Maryland. He married Elizibeth Brooke Carmichael, of Queen Anne's Co.,. His mother was descended on the maternal side form the Morris family of Pennsylvania, of revolutionary fame. They had three children besides the subject of this sketch, viz, Henrietta, who married the Rev. Pennell Combe, of the Philadelphia Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and left three children; Susan Elizabeth, who married Lampson Farrow merchant of Baltimore and left one child; Wm. Carmichael, who died in infancy. Col. Wilmer's father died when he was an infant, and the care of the family devolved on his widowed mother. His mother dying when he was fifteen years
      old, he left college and engaged with his brother-in-law in Baltimore as clerk in the dry good business. On April 11, 1839, he married Hannah
      Elizabeth, only daughter of Daniel and Mary (Reynolds) Megredy, of Port Deposit. Her father was the son of John Megredy, a Scotchman, and Elizabeth Job, a descendent of the family of Daniel Defoe, author of "Robinson Crusoe." Mary (Reynolds) Megredy was the daughter of John and Hannah (Knight) Reynolds of Cecil Co.,. He was a brother of Judge David Reynolds, of Lewistown, Pa., and of Reuben Reynolds of Cecil Co.,.

      He raised the Sixth Regiment of Delaware Infantry in 1863, at the time of Lee's raid into Pennsylvania, and in two days he had the regiment armed, equipped and on duty on the line of the P. W. B. Railroad.

      He had born to him seven children, five of whom survive, viz., Mary Rachael, who married Henry R. Torbert of THE CECIL WHIG; Laura Freeman who married Chas. H. Hepburn, of Baltimore city; Edwin Megredy Wilmer, Ellen Moore Reynolds, and Florence Zeilin Wilmer, who resided with their parent.

      The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon from the residence of his son, No. 1800 Madison avenue. Rev. J. J. G. Webster, pastor of the Madison Avenue M. E. Church, officiated. The body is to be removed t the family burying ground at Hopewell, in this Co.,.
