Surnames: Adams/Potter Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CI.2ADEB/9328.1.1 Message Board Post: I found Ellen Potter Adams living with her father in 1880 in Richland Twp, Morgan County. She has four children the oldest being eight years. I have the marriage license of Francis M Adams and Ellen Potter. I was Sept 1870, so all of her children should be hers and Francis'. I couldn't figure out where Francis was in 1880 and still can't figure it out. No 1890 census. Darn! and then in 1900 Ellen is listed as a widow and she has three more children. She then married Harry Zeigenmier. I found her tombstone listing in Cooper County Info. Ellen E Zeigenmier born 1852 died 1934. I am going to get the death certificate. The 1870 census was taken in August and they married in Sept. I thought Francis would be in the area but I went through all the census page by page and couldn't find him in the area. You believe he was in Boone County at that time? Mary
