********************************
After the death of his wife, Ellen, Wilson Adair with his family joined a wagon train (probably late 1869) and moved from Indiana to Missouri. Albert, his youngest son, was a child at the time. Nackie, his oldest daughter, was married and had a family of her own. She remained in Indiana.
Wilson Adair, a widower, married Holland Adams Dishion, a widow. In those days, women were seldom property owners. She had inherited property from her first husband and refused to deed it to her new husband. The dissension over the property made it impossible for them to have a happy marriage and they divorced. Two of her children married two of his children.
