    1. [MECUMBER] 1850 Index...question on James Mc Chloe
    2. I wondered if anyone has access to a 1850 Federal census index for Maine and would be willing to look up James Mc CLOE of Cumberland country to verify where he is in the census. I'm searching on my husband's line for the family of James McLOY and his , wife Margaret (CONNOR). His son, Richard McLoy, was born 9 Sept 1850 in Portland, Cumberland, Maine, at least that is the information the family has. Since this pinpoints a location in a census year, I've been trying to find James McLOY in the 1850 census. (I realized the census date was probably before Richard was born.) So far I haven't had any luck. Tonight I searched for all the James in Cumberland County (some 800!) and went through the index for them one by one trying to find anything that could be a mispelling or mispronunciation. I came across James Mc CHLOE in Poland, Cumberland, Maine and wondered if perhaps this was close enough to be my James. It is the only name remotely close to McLOY. But when I go to the link, I can't see anything like this name on the image. I searched several pages in each direction and can't find remotely like this. I'm wondering if the online index has an error. I want to verify where James in in the index so I can look him up. Thank you so much, Gaye Willis Juneau, Alaska
