Both Margaret & Stephen buried together at Fiedler Cemetery, Wapello County, IA. please add this history to her page as it would be lost otherwise: My father & I went in early 1980's+/- to Mars Hill Church (oldest log cabin church still standing west of the Mississippi River) to show our cousin Ralph Williams from Southwest City, MO & his brother as his brother had never seen it. Williams clan were close tied to Watts family marrying siblings & then their grandkids married siblings. Our Watts' ancestors went to church there & one still buried there as well ( Sarah Buchanan). Her husband Samuel Buchanan was buried next to her but later his 2nd wife's family moved his bones & grave to Ottumwa Cemetery so they could be closer to him & buried with their mother. It upset all of our family they did it. My Grandfather was on the board of the Church then to help preserve it as was my father & grandfathers sisters. The Amish fortunately were able to rebuild/restore the original Mars Hill log church after it was burned sadly by very mischievous high school or early 20's kids trying to perform satanic rituals burning symbol on floor which caught whole church on fire. It looks "Exactly" as it was which for me as an Architect is awe inspiring work done. It one did not know better they would swear it was the same original building. "mildly burned logs are visible on outside back of church near fireplace & alongside the back right side. Fortunately it is well protected & locked up tight today. Locals do have a summer church prayer meeting sometime in each summer still there. ~ On October 1, 1857, Mr. (Stephen H.) Wilkins married Miss Margaret Buchanan, who was born in Indiana & is the daughter of Samuel & Sarah J. (Toller) Buchanan, the former born in Pennsylvannia ((my family history says NOT Pennsylvania but rather South Carolina as noted under Wesley A. Buchanan's page history)) & the later in Indiana. Of their family of 6 children 2 are now living. ((only Margaret was ever shown)). Mr. Buchanan removed from Indiana ((missing: married 1832 Terrehaute, Ind)) to Jasper County, Illinois, & in 1855 came to Wapello County, where he & his wife both passed away. (from History of Wapello Co page 447 under son Wesley A. Buchanan): Samuel ((b: York Co.,)) S. Carolina. ((M: 1832 Terrehaute, Ind. to Sarah Jane TOLLER.)) At young age he was brought to Indiana where he was reared and schooled. Before reaching his majority ((manhood)) he commenced trading with the ((Pottawattomie)) Indians in Indiana, and bartered with the Pottawattomie's for some time, which he found a very lucrative business. He was married there and settled on a farm which he cultivated until he came later to Wapello County, Iowa, in 1855. ((with Sarah his wife & young children)) He located in Cass Township, where he rented a farm & coal bank, which he operated about 6 yrs (1861). ((Civil War: Just after his son Wesley A. was born Jan. 6, 1862, Samuel enlisted in 15th IA reg't, Co. D, on Feb 1, 1862 along with his son George W.ashington Buchanan, & his future son-in-law Stephen Harry Wilkins (married his dau. Margaret "Maggy"). He was wounded @ battle of Shiloh & discharged June 17, 1862. He returned back home to IA. )) He rented land until 1871, when he moved to Keokuk township, IA & purchased 160 acres of land(s) - 80 acres of the Mathews heirs & the remaining 80 of the Litchfields. This property he farmed until his death on Jan. 18, 1898, at the age of eighty-eight years. He was very successful in business, & during his many years' residence here made many warm friends. Her married Sarah Tol(l)er, by whom he had 5 children, as follows: Nancy J. ; George W.; Margaret; Sarah A.; and Amanda ((Maddy)). After the death of SARAH he married Lucinda Shaw, by whom he also had 5 children: Wesley A.; Ella; Martha; 'Cordie' May ((Cordi(a) May m: William Henry Shank)); and Amiee ((Amy Cloretta, m: Mr. (Nimrod?) Poston - census taker)). In religious belief he was a Methodist. In Politics he was a Republican ((which by modern terms follows the current principles of the Democratic party -stood against corporations & for the common man & against slavery)), & was honored with several township offices. Wesley A. Buchanan attended the common schools of Keokuk township, & has always lived on the old home farm. Since his father's demise he has had entire charge of the farm, & is doing well. He is a very progressive man & a prosperous future is predicted by those who are familiar with his qualifications, & his honest & upright methods of doing business. He is unmarried, & his devoted mother keeps house for him. In politics he is a firm supporter of the principles advocated by the Republican party. Fraternally he is a member of the Modern Woodsmen of America. ((My notes: He was originally buried at Mars Hill Church, Wapello Co., IA next to Sarah J. Toller Buchanan - 1st wife, but relocated next to his 2nd wife on Nov. 6, 1917 after her passing.))
