I have searched my file and found Ellen RISNER born 8/25/1857 and died
12/18/1937 buried in the Rose Cemetery, Wolfe County. William RISNER
born 10/15/1834 and died 4/30/1898 buried in the Risner Cemetery,
located in the Calaboose area of Wolfe County. Other RISNERS found:
were in the 1900 Wolfe County Census 1-224. Shelton age 26, Martha 23,
Ella J. 5, Rose B. 4, Oliva 2, and Myrie E. 3/12. To answer the
question about Ellen's parents being O'Hairs, it sound like she may have
been married before she met William. Note: William RISNER had the
only marked grave at that location, but several other graves marked
with fieldstone were found. I have a photo of his stone. If I can be
of any further assistance contact me thur my son's web site, or write to

I am looking for information about Siller (ADKINS) CRISP (about 1864 -1959). She lived
near Lee City after her husband, William CRISP, died in 1941. Prior to his death, they lived
in Wrigley. They had children named Atlas, Luke, Warner, Flem, and Lida. I have no background
information on Siller (ADKINS) CRISP, and would appreciate any detail you could share with me.
