You didn't give enough info to tell if that's them or not, but you may want to check it out. The 1880 also has a Martin & Mary in NY state. <BR/><BR/>DonnaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077536894458666315.post-76908936060975902992009-03-23T16:31:00.000-05:002009-03-23T16:31:00.000-05:00Tom, you don't say where they were living before 1...Tom, you don't say where they were living before 1900. Not in a state that did what I call 5-year censuses (1885, 1895, etc)?JamaGeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16973656461323918279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077536894458666315.post-49556098123167286112009-03-23T11:46:00.000-05:002009-03-23T11:46:00.000-05:00I had a similar problem from 1846.

My 90-year old uncle told me that it was from milk sickness (from livestock eating snake root). The 1840 census showed them all, and the 1850 census showed 4g-grandmother, the orphaned child, and two unmarried daughters in the household. At first I thought it was three deaths, because the child was with the women until he married, and the sisters stayed with his family until their deaths. While researching the orphan, I found the father alive and well, and his family unaware of his child (their records only show his first wife's first name). <BR/><BR/>Now I really wonder about the deaths.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
