George KIRKPATRICK and his wife Sarah STEPHENSON came to Shullburg, LaFayette Co., Wisconsin in 1849 with prob 5 of their children from Alston, Cumberland, (now Cumbria) England. He was a lead miner and came with his grown son George and his wife Jane (need her maiden name etc.). They very possibly came listed as Patrick and they appear this way in the 1850 federal census. A daughter Frances also came. Geo Sr. died aftera few years leaving property in Shullsburg to his wife Sarah but the will record in appears to not have been properly probated. In the 1860 census I cannot find them. George Jr. went into the Civil War in the 33rd Regiment, Wisconsin Vol. Infantry and was invalided out in 1863 and was sent home to die. Which he did.

Geo Edmund was raised in a Soldier's Childrens Orphanage in Madison. Looking for any descendants of this family.
