Ronald, Thank you for your reply. I have found Esther Peake BLUNT in the 1850-1870 census records in the household of Stephen/Frances WOODWORTH. 1850 they are in Boston and 1860- 1870 they are in Worcester. I believe Frances WOODWORTH may be the oldest daughter of Esther/John BLUNT. I have not tried the 1800-1840 censuses as I don't know enough to get much out of the hash marks. I am working of vital stats on Ancestry.com, but have not found anything yet. I was hoping someone on this list would be familiar with the name and would know her parents and sibs names.
