    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.breckinridge/4524.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hello Tammy, Well, I think I found something. Now, what I found points to her being born in 1898, not 1900. You mentioned Noah in your last post and I looked him up on the 1900 census. He has a sister named Lillie. I looked at Lillie and Jesse on the 1920 and 1930 census'. She is listed as 22 on the 1920 and 32 on the 1930. The 1930 also has the age at which they were married and it had 14 as her age at marriage. Which puts her being born in 1898. This I believe does make her Noah's sister. Now, another thing, their mother's name was Susan M., not Catherine. The 1900 census says she was divorced, but the 1910 says she is a widow, so I don't know about that and don't know their father yet. Now, I don't know if your info is confirmed or not, but this looks like the situation to me. On the 1910 census, I could not find her anywhere. Noah and his mother are in Grayson County, but only those 2 in the household. Her older brother, John T., is in Grayson also, married and only him and his wife in the household. Where Lillie is, I don't know at this time. Here is the census indexes: 1900 United States Federal Census about Susan M Powell Name: Susan M Powell Home in 1900: Custer, Breckinridge, Kentucky Age: 55 Estimated birth year: abt 1845 Birthplace: Kentucky Relationship to head-of-house: Head Race: White Occupation: View image Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Susan M Powell 55 John T Powell 26 Lora V Powell 16 Noah Powell 11 Lillie Powell 2 Here is the 1910, they have Lusan M. for Noah's mother, but I looked at the image and it is Susan. The writing was sloppy and it did look a little like an L. This one says she is widowed unlike the 1900. 1910 United States Federal Census about Lusan M Powel Name: Lusan M Powel Age in 1910: 66 Estimated birth year: abt 1844 Birthplace: Kentucky Relation to Head of House: Mother Father's Birth Place: Kentucky Mother's Birth Place: Kentucky Home in 1910: Leitchfield, Grayson, Kentucky Marital Status: Widowed Race: White Gender: Female Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Noah Powel 22 Lusan M Powel 66 Here is the 1920 1920 United States Federal Census about Lillie M Wright Name: Lillie M Wright Home in 1920: West Leitchfield, Grayson, Kentucky Age: 22 years Estimated birth year: abt 1898 Birthplace: Kentucky Relation to Head of House: Wife Spouse's name: Jessie E Father's Birth Place: Kentucky Mother's Birth Place: Kentucky Marital Status: Married Race: White Sex: Female Able to read: Yes Able to Write: Yes Image: 539 Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Jessie E Wright 35 Lillie M Wright 22 Russel W Wright 6 Charles L Wright 4 4/12 Edward L Wright 4/12 1930 United States Federal Census about Lillie Wright Name: Lillie Wright Home in 1930: Blandville, Breckinridge, Kentucky Age: 32 Estimated birth year: abt 1898 Relation to Head of House: Wife Spouse's name: Jesse Occupation: Education: Military Service: Rent/home value: Age at first marriage: Parents' birthplace: View image Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Jesse Wright 46 Lillie Wright 32 Russell Wright 16 Charlie Wright 14 Edward Wright 10 Edna Wright 5 Jesse Bates
