Morning, This is all the Asa FAY Federal info. Asa FAY is the oldest son of Benajah FAY (OPF 95). >From 1850 Brooklyn Heights, Cuyahoga County, Ohio Federal Census Dwelling 1056 Family 1168 Asa FAY 49 M Farmer MA Florilla 35 F CT Lewis 18 M OH Roxanna 17 F OH James 15 M OH Franklin 13 M OH Martin 11 M OH Harriet 8 F MI Asa 6 M OH Sophronia 3 F OH Charles 11/12 M OH >From 1860 Brooklyn Heights, Cuyahoga County, Ohio Federal Census Family 554 Lavella FAY 50 F Farmer 2500 350 CT Lewis 28 M 25 OH Roxanna 26 F OH Jane 24 F OH Franklin 25 M Farmer 200 OH Martin 20 M OH Harriet 18 F OH Asa 16 M OH Sophia 12 F OH Charles 10 M OH Andrew 8 M OH NOTE: Lavella here may be the middle name of Florilla BRAINARD FAY. but this is, no doubt, Asa's family. I do not know where Asa FAY was in 1860, but I've been told by other descendents of Benajah FAY that he did go out west and returned. I've not seen any proof of this, but he's apparently not in Ohio. He's listed in the infirmary on the 1870 census. >From 1870 Brooklyn Heights, Cuyahoga County, Ohio Federal Census Family 540 FAY, Florilla 54 F W Keep house 2000 300 CT , Lewis 38 M W Farmer OH , Andrew 19 M W Laborer OH , Asa 27 M W Laborer OH Infirmary FAY, Asa 69 M W Farmer NY Family 538 ROBERTS, Newell 37 M W Quarryman -- 200 OH , Roxanna 36 F W Keep house OH , Luther 15 M W At School OH , Geo. 5 M W FAY , Martin 30 M W Quarryman OH NOTE: Roxanna FAY married Newell ROBERTS. Martin FAY is a sibling to Roxanna FAY ROBERTS. You'll notice Luther ROBERTS as being listed as 15 years of age, which would put his birthdate about 1855, however Roxanna FAY ROBERTS is listed as being still at home with her parents on the 1860 census. >From 1880 Brooklyn Heights, Cuyahoga County, Ohio Federal Census Family 184 ROBERTS, Newell W M 47 Quarryman OH CT CT , Roxanna W F 46 wife Keep House OH NY CT , Luther W M 25 son Laborer Hoit Beat OH NY CT , George W M 15 son at school OH NY CT , Arthur W M 8 son at school OH NY CT , Flora W F 7 daughter at school OH NY CT FAY , Louis W M 48 brother at home Asthma OH NY CT NOTE: Louis FAY is a sibling to Roxanna FAY ROBERTS.
