Here?s a rundown that I?m aware of (so far, somewhat accurate) : Robert Boxwell, born in Virginia (1797) and died in Linn County Iowa (1869) md in 1820 to Rhoda Young (1800 - 1877) .
their children (the 1st two born in Maryland) (and the 4 younger in Pennsylvania):
1- Eliza Jane (1825-1893) md David McCall (1825-1894) (these are MY GGgrandparents)
2- John Boxwell (1827-1863)
3- William Boxwell (1830-1921)
4- Robert M. Boxwell (1832-1916)
5- Moses Boxwell (1837-1909)
6- Mary Ann Boxwell (1842-1920)
according to some history books of the early Iowa frontier, there were supposedly TWO more children, boys I think, who passed away in their childhood.... have not located them yet.
