• Notes

  The family came in covered wagons from Ohio to Wisconsin. Mary (daughter) was married in Ohio and drove one of the wagons. Peyton Wey was a basket maker and also a school teacher. He also had a "sugar camp". Alfred Johnson, quoting his grandmother Margaret, said Peyton had a very bad temper. The oldest son (Thomas) ran away before they moved to Wisconsin.
