Hi, My John Culleney/Colonna will mentions his daughter who married Burton Messick. 1820 Sussex Co., DE Census has John(shoe maker) in Little Creek Hundred and his son Sothey in Broad Creek Hundred. The page where Sothey is listed it also has Coventon, Samuel, Burton Messick. Plus another daughter's husband Isaac Dolby. I'd love to know the route of this census taker!
