Don, I think this is your family on 9 July 1860. Evidently they were living in a rural area in Farmington Township, Hartford Co., CT. The post office was Unionville. James Nibbs, age 33, male, occ. laborer, owns personal property worth $50, born in England. Mary, age 32, female Ann, 8, female Eliza, 4, female William, 3, male Burritt, 2/12, male The official census day in 1860 was 1 Jun, which _should_ mean that young Burritt was born two months earlier than that. This enumerator left most birthplaces blank; the only ones he recorded were England and Ireland. I think it is therefore safe to assume that everyone without a birthplace listed would have been born in CT. Do you have the 1880 listing?
