Hi Janie and everyone, I was hoping I could get another Census Lookup from you. I may have found where in New York Theodore Dickinson came from and who his parents are. I was able to look at the actual 1860 Shasta County Census today and an 1850 New York. When I got home and compared the copies, there is an E. Dickenson with a wife Lydia next door to Theodore in the 1860 Shasta County (French Gulch). There is also a brother Erastus with a wife Lydia - same ages and everything - in the 1850 New York Census in the same household. Anyway, I was hoping for a lookup in a later (1870 or 1880) Shasta County Census to see if that E. (Erastus?) Dickinson shows up there (He could be listed as Dickerson, I've found them with that spelling too). I really hate when they just used initials! Thanks so much. Denise Fort Hood, TX
