Notes
a. Note:   Some data provided by Kendrick Harrison Folsom, genealogist of the Folsom Family Association (e-mail to Nancy Porter, December 31, 1997).
  He enlisted 31st Wisconsin Infantry during the Civil War, serving from August 11, 1862 to June 20, 1865.
  In the 1870 Census for High Forest, Olmsted Co., Minnesota, William's wife is listed as Lydia Ann, age 32, b. in Maine. That would make her birth year about 1838.
  In the 1880 Census for Crystal, Phillips Co., Kansas, his wife is shown as Louisa, age 43, b. in Maine. That would make her birth year about 1858. Children are shown as Augusta, b. 1857; Almond, b. 1861; Sherman, b. 1872; Olive, b. 1875; and Birdie, b. November 1879.
  In the 1885 Kansas Census, W. T. Folsom's wife is Sylvina, born about 1839. Children are shown as A.S., born about 1862; Sherman, born about 1873; and Olive, born about 1876.
  These are either the children of William and Louisa, or the children of William and Sylvina (which is possible assuming a marriage in 1856 is correct) but not both. See notes on Sylvina Winslow.
