Dear Mary, It looks to me as if you use just one Federal Census, i.e.1900. I would suggest that you also look at the 1870, 1880, and 1910 Federal Census for Danbury, NH. You may pick up more children of Loring E. Fay and more information about him. Be sure and copy down every detail given in Census ledgers/microfilm. Use the Census Index book to locate what county to use for the Census ledger/microfilm. I would also contact the : New Hampshire Society of Genealogists P.O. Box 633 Exeter, NH 03833 Phone: (603) 432-8137 You might ask them what resources they have as far as newspaper abstracts or clippings, obituaries, and the town histories of DANBURY, NH, preferably one with genealogies. They will have a list of NH societies and probably a list of addresses for the Public Libraries in the area. They may have a local Danbury genealogist who can help you for a small fee. You might also see if they have/or know where the City Directories for Danbury, NH. are located. These books are generally published yearly and some towns have these books back well into the 1800's. Each year the adults were listed. Their wives were listed in ( ) . Then you will get employment and residence. Be sure to photocopy the pages for the Surnames you need, and write down the bibliographic details for each book as many directory companies existed and they competed for town business. You might put an inquiry into the State Society Newsletter, magazine, or homepage. You may be asked to join the society for the priviledge of using their resources. Some places charge a look-up fee, so call first to see what they can do for you. Please keep us posted as to what you find. Good luck with your research. Sincerely, Mary (FAY) Nelson 9
