Answer 1

Hey myndi h,

There are lots of hits on the name in the internet. Look at the sites I provided.

There is not a DNA Project for that name right now. But you could start one.

There are 156 Wildfong records on the LDS Family Search site. The following information was taken from just one entry there:
