About Reuben Wiggins

William Wiggins' father Reuben Wiggins and his wife Martha Bourd had 15 children. Reuben came to the United States and sent back money for Martha and (then) seven children to come in 1853 in a sailing ship. William was seasick all three weeks of the way. Reuben and his family moved to Illinois and then to Iowa City, Iowa.
