Symons(Symens) who was born in Devon, ENG in 1843. He immigrated to the US and I have found him on the 1880 Census for Amber, Mason Co, MI living with the Wm Garlock family. Henry is listed as married and a gristmiller which is correct. But his wife Tamzin is not listed in that household. In Oct of 1880 she gave birth to a dau.,Tamzin. Where could she be? > Three more children were born to them: Jonas Edwin 1885, > Laura 1887, and Fannie 1892. > If someone who has access to the 1870, 1890, 1900 Census for Mich or Mason Co could look to see if they are on them, I would be a very happy camper!
