535C Mary C Unknown [parents unknown] Census records: Widow MaryWilliam Henry Sedgwick, youngest son of Gad Sedgwick, disappeared to genealogical researchers for many decades. Those who were descended from him didn't know where he came from; those who knew where he came from didn't know where he went. As late as 1950, after 100 years of genealogy research by George, Frederick, Francis and Hubert Sedgwick, all that was known of him was a that his nephew Samuel Woodford Sedgwick, Jr. had written a letter (to George?) saying that Willliam Henry had "died in Arkansas, leaving a wife and two or three children." Reference to that letter can be found here However, I have had the good fortune to meet online a few descendants of William Henry Sedgwick, and they have provided a good deal of information. William W Sedgwick, listed below, has sent his family file. It has now been incorporated into the main file for the Robert Sedgwick family group, and the children are listed here. Children:
