Married: Julia _____ (b. abt 1855, NY) Information on Charles Duncan Van Wickle's wife is sketchy at best. Charles' son, Clyde is variously reported as b. NY, MI, or PA depending on the census year one looks at. Charles and Julia Van Wickle do appear in the 1880 US census for Grand Rapids, MI, however, no child appears with them and Clyde was allegedly b. in 1877 and should be there. A fairly exhaustive search of 1880 census pages across US do not pick up Clyde or another eligible Charles Van Wickle.

Children:
1. Clyde^9 R. Van Wickle, b. 23 Feb 1877, NY

Parents:
Charles' parents are Stephen^7 Duncan and Aurelia (Roberts) Van Wickle
