[WED]Ducketts and Browns

[Nancy Hill]

I grew up around Leon, Iowa.  George Redman, my gr-grandfather, moved from
Wedmore to Dubuque, Iowa in 1852.  He lived near Dyersville, Iowa.  He went
back to England in 1869 and married Louisa Jane Fear, from Mark, England.
In 1872, they moved to Decatur County, Iowa near Leon, Iowa.  I know that
Louisa Jane had a brother Robert Fear, who also lived in Decatur County,
Iowa.  I have been trying to track the Redman family in Wedmore.  I know
that George's father was John Redman and his mother was Hester Hamm Redman.
I think he had a brother, Thomas, and two sisters, Jane and Maria.  Who was
your family that lived near Leon, Iowa?  Thanks for responding.
