[Jean Holland Note:  In the 1880 census, Ezra says his parents were from New Jersey.  He bought land in Douglas Co., MO, in 1892. Also, when he left the National Home for Disabled Soldiers in 1895, he gave as his closest relative Elizabeth Jane Gwin in Thorn (?) MO. I don't know who she is!  To confuse things, there were apparently two Ezra Gwins born in Ohio, maybe the same county, at about the same time.  I say apparently, because you never know!  But the other Ezra married someone named Hannah Baldwin, and I believe that they lived out their lives in Ohio, except for a short time in Michigan. I would guess that they might be related, but I don't know.  The Gwin family always thought that they were from Wales, and then North Carolina.  But I don't know how accurate that is.]
