I am wondering whether anyone has seen any Illinois census listings for a Lydia Borker or maybe Booker or Baker? She is listed in the 1870 census for Barry County, Missouri, as being 75-years-old and living with Eliza and Urbin Sumpter. Eliza may have been born in Illinois. In the 1860 census for Johnson County, Arkansas, where Eliza and Urbin lived at the time, is shown a listing for a daughter, aged 8, living with them, named Lydia. She does not show up in the 1870 census, but I suspect she was named for the 75-year-old Lydia Borker, who does show up. It says the elderly Lydia Borker was born in Tennessee, but I know not where. If she was 75 in 1870, I guess that would mean she was born in 1795.

She is listed in census records as having been born in Illinois, but I don't know where, and I don't have names for her parents. She seems to have been born in 1828, and if the Washington County, Missouri, marriage records have the right date, she married in 1839, which would have made her only 11 when she married. Her husband was Urbin Sumpter. > > Thanks in advance for your help, > > Simone Smith HatsAndHandFans@Yahoo.Com > ==== IL-CENSUS-LOOKUP Mailing List ==== Listowner may be reached at: IL-CENSUS-LOOKUP-ADMIN@ROOTSWEB.COM ============================== Gain access to over two billion names including the new Immigration Collection with an Ancestry.com free trial.
