She married Henry Manville Wilson in Gilmer Co., WV on Jan. 9, 1879. Their children were Mabel V. Stubenbordt, William Howard, Earl Delford, Flora Olive Gautschi, Georgia Sylvia ("Georgie") Hess, Alma V. Barski, and Joy Thomas Wilson. George E., born 1881, died in infancy. Addie Riddle Wilson may be interred in this cemetery with her parents and many of her siblings, but this has not been proved. Her husband, Henry M. Wilson, remarried after her death. Neither Addie nor Henry's later wife, Alice, is buried with him in Mt. Liberty Cemetery above Tanner. Henry Wilson and family, except Laura (Addie), appear on the 1900 census. Henry is listed as still married, for 21 years. It is possible that Laura was still living, but infirmed, and died shortly thereafter. The details may be recorded in a family Bible. It may have been handed down with descendants who relocated out west. Several headstones in the cemetery had inscriptions that have worn away over time and are no longer legible. One of these may have marked Addie Riddle's gravesite. In the birth index her given name is spelled Laurah. Also several different spellings for her middle name (Jemina/ Jemima) are used in records. * * * * * From "Sinking Creek News" in The Gilmerite, Oct. 11, 1881: "Henry Wilson is to move to George Riddle's." * * * * * Some records: United States Census, 1880 Name Laura J Wilson Event Place De Kalb, Gilmer, West Virginia, United States Gender Female Age 22 Marital Status Married Race White Race (Original) W Occupation Keeping House Relationship to Head of Household Wife Relationship to Head of Household (Original) Wife Birth Year (Estimated) 1858 Birthplace West Virginia, United States Father's Birthplace West Virginia, United States Mother's Birthplace West Virginia, United States Sheet Letter C Sheet Number 173 Person Number 1 Volume 1 Birthplace Henry M Wilson Self M 22 West Virginia, United States Laura J Wilson Wife F 22 West Virginia, United States "United States Census, 1880," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M6R2-G1G : 15 July 2017), Laura J Wilson in household of Henry M Wilson, De Kalb, Gilmer, West Virginia, United States; enumeration district ED 140, sheet 173C, NARA microfilm publication T9 (Washington D.C.: National Archives and Records Administration, n.d.), roll 1402; FHL microfilm 1,255,402.
