I am looking for information on my great-great grandfather, Alvia (not sure of spelling) Ricker. He was born in Maine around 1828, but I have no idea where in Maine. He was married to Elizabeth also born in Maine around 1833. Both Alvia and Elizabeth's parents were born in Maine, according to 1880 census. Their children were all born in Minnesota: Walter Scott Ricker (my great-grandfather) in 1861, Wilford C Ricker in 1865, Cara A Ricker in 1869, Pearly Ricker in 1875 and Elizabeth Ricker in 1877. If anybody has any information on Alvia or any of the children listed it would be much appreciated as I have hit a dead end!!
