Great work, Connie! - confirms rumour of Ms. M* Howard's birth in Fredonia NY (was it Fredonia, Pomfret, or ?) - finds 'mispeled' M?n?f?l(d) family in Cleveland census Wards 10 and 11 in 1850, 1860 census - 1850 and 1860 census overlaps 2 sons Franklin and Damon/Zamon in 1870 census of Orange Mansfield family - continues tradition of wife's name being M* (something) and being new and different for each census - takes Barnes back 6 generations to the immigrant!!!!!! (Marilla.6.Oliver.5 Benjamin.4 Nathaniel.3 Benjamin.2 William.1) - stops the heresy of Orange Mansfield of Lockport NY being in our ahnentafel. Our Orange Mansfield was in Cleveland while he was retired in Lockport. - and gives us a good chance to be related to the Howards of the Howard Watch Company! http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/BARNES/2000-03/0952488041 Orange Mansfield 1792-1879 NY; resides: 1850 Clarence Erie county NY, 1860 Niagara county NY, 1870 Lockport Niagara county NY. http://www.ebay.com/bhp/e-howard-gold-pocket-watch Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
