In the U.S. Censuses of 1880, 1900 and 1910, there are only two Miles Wymans from Maine listed. One is Miles H.; the other is Miles S., whom we consider to be Miles S. Wyman, son of Hiram and Phoebe. From those Census Records, it appears that Miles had been married to Nellie ? while in Biddeford, Maine, where Miles worked in a rug factory. By 1900, he had moved on to Chicago, where he was living with second wife, Minnie Blizzard, and working in a glass factory. Then, in the 1910 Census of Toledo, Ohio, we find Miles, widowed, living with a widowed sister-in-law, Josephine Blizzard Bates, and his widowed mother-in-law, Dora (Mrs. Clinton) Blizzard (T624, Roll 1208, E.D. 72, Page 236B). In the 1900 Census of Chicago, Miles gives his birthdate as January 1858, making him 42 at the time. In 1910, he gives his age as 54. In the 1920 Census of Fayston, Vermont, there is a Miles A. Wyman, age 62 and born in Maine, working in a lumber camp.
