Mike, Wasn't quite sure what you wanted, so I looked for Stephen & Angeline in 1860 census records, but didn't find them. 1870 Fed. census - Wheatland Twp., Hillsdale Co., P. O. Hudson, HH 238/240: Stafford, Abram - age 53 born NY " Angie - age 34 born NY " Burr - age 17, born MI " Clara - age 8, born MI " Lydia - age 79 born RI Farnum? (could say "Farmer"), Binni - age 5 born IA Stafford, Hulda - age 49 born NY This is from the 1880 Fed. Census of Wheatland Twp., Hillsdale Co., MI at FamilySearch.org - likely you already have this. Angie & Abraham have a daughter: Abram Stafford - Self age 63 Born NY Angie Stafford - Wife age 43 born NY Burr Stafford - son age 26 born MI Clara Stafford - daughter age 18 born MI Sadie Stafford - daughter age 8 born MI Huldah Stafford - Sister age 58 born NY Bina Farnam - step-son age 16 born IA Sarah Bunnell - Mother-in-law age 78 born NY Marilyn ----- Original Message ----- From: MIKE STAFFORD To: MIHILLSD-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, July 23, 2004 12:30 PM Subject: [MIHILLSD] Perry & Farnum I'm looking for more information on this family.
