Cindy, You are more than welcome. I only wish that the census lookup added more information than confusion! I must say I am really impressed with the wealth of information you have sent! Thank you very much!!! We had encountered some of these Coyers in our research and didn't know where they belonged. Joseph was quite an interesting character - I had no idea. Thank you for sharing!

I don't know what would explain the big differences in age compared with census records. 2)Rosa's birthdate is in my notes below. 3)I didn't know about Rosalie until yesterday, but I will look. I appreciate all of your efforts! Cindy Here are my notes for the family of Joseph Coyer/Carrier: JOSEPH C.
