Marianne, Have some info--will have to send you the Wilson marriages later--there are oodles of them. I didn't find the marriage for Elizabeth Burchold in 1855--perhaps she was married in another county? This is the only surnname on the census: House\fam # 90\90 Shipman, William age 37, laborer, b NJ, Florence Twp; Mary age 37, b PA; Wesley C.* age 14, b PA; Charles B. age 12, b PA; Susanne C. age 9, b PA; Sarah E. age 7, b PA; Rebecca J.* age 3, b Mich; Mary L. age 1, b Mich. In the marriage listings I have used * to indicate that surname is on the 1850 census, but not necessarily that person. Myerholz\Lindley Marriages: Bk "E" p 216 26 Jun 1879 Joseph W. Lindly\ Anna A.
