Biography

Sarah Amanda Dickinson was born about 1830. She was probably named after her Great Aunt Sally (Root) Abel and her Aunt Harriett Amanda (Dickinson) Stone.

She was married on 18 February 1847 in Defiance Co., Ohio, to William Wisemiller. The Wisemillers appear in Hicksville, Defiance County, Ohio, in the 1850 Census (page 87), nextdoor to the Dickinsons. They moved to Essex, Kankakee County, Illinois about 1857.

Mrs. Sarah Wisemiller (of Nebraska), Sherman S. Wisemiller of Illinois, and Mrs. Mary E. Weaver of Michigan are mentioned as visiting Mrs. Lester Preston at Hicksville, Ohio. They were there attending the old settlers meeting (The Hicksville News, 10 September 1885, page 4): https://www.newspapers.com/image/34330645/?terms="Sarah%20Wisemiller"%20Illinois&match=1

Sarah passed away before May 1895 (predeceased her husband).
