I am the granddaughter of Wilda Hiley. Wilda had three brothers, the one that struck home with me when I read your message was Nelson Hiley (deceased) who lived in Missouri. I do believe he was born in Iowa, however. Another interesting note: Silva is also a family name ( I remember my mother, Wilda's daughter, talking of a cousin by the name of Silva. Another interesting note: I do know the Martin name is in our family history somewhere. I have always been told that "Grandpa Jack" came from Kentucky, and that no one really knew where from, etc. He was (if I am not mistaken) a country peddler type,and would visit the farm with a wagon and horse. There was also a Grandpa Andy I believe. I am going to see my mother tomorrow and I will try to get some history from here.
