I'll add to the roll call! I have the following Leadville information on my great-great-grandmother Wilmuth Taylor Ward Young. Her first name may have also been spelled as Wilmeth and Wilmoth. >From the 1880 Census I found her listed as: W. Ward, a widow, 39 years of age, born in VA who's occupation was listed as "laundry." Her daughter, Ida Ward was 6 years old, born in MO, and the only other individual living there. In the 1882 Leadville City Directory she is listed as: Mrs. Wilmuth Ward residing at 610 w Front St. in Leadville. In the 1883 and 1884 she is listed as: Mrs. Wilmuth Young residing at the same address. In 1883 she married Eugene Young and in 1884 had a child named Charles. By 1885, she was living in the Colorado State Hospital in Pueblo where she died approximately 15 years later. I'm trying to determine when she came to Leadville and if she arrived as a widow or became a widow after moving to Leadville. Also, trying to determine the nature of the district she lived in. I do not know the name of Mr. Ward, Ida's father. I do know that Eugene Young worked for Grant Smelter and moved with them to Denver approximately 1884 or 1885. Maybe something will click in someone's mind! Thanks in advance. Leslie Lynch Alderman [email protected]
