      Isaac Wimberly, a son of James and Cynthia Ann Hart Wimberly, was born in Hunt County, near Greenville, in 1851. He lived in Parker County until he was grown. He came to Wise County and settled on a farm not far from Boonsville. In, 1875, he married Josephine Texas Hefley, daughter of John M. and Jane Cutbirth Hefley. The Hefley family had came to Texas from Tennessee and located on a farm near Boonsville. It is said they crossed the Mississippi River on a large raft, the only means available in the early days.

      Isaac and Josephine Wimberly were amoung the early settlers in Wise County and both of their sons remained in Wise County for many years. Isaac had an urge to go to the new Indian Territory, when it was opened up. So in 1905 he took his wife and their three youngest daughters and moved in covered wagons to Cimarron County, Oklahoma, near Sampsel, in the western corner of Oklahoma, about 30 miles from Boise City. Here they homesteaded on several hundred acres of land and remained there until each passed away. Three of their daughters settled in that area and many of their grandchildren still live in that county.

      Josephine Hefley Wimberly passed away in Dec, 1940, seven years after her husband. Both are buried in the Marisella Cemetary, near Griggs, Oklahoma.
