Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HGB.2ACE/85 Message Board Post: Darius A. or Abner Alden was born Aug 1842 in Medina, Ohio. His wife was Emily born Sept 1853 in Minnesota. By the census of 1900, (Riverside, Ca)they had been married for 29 years, so married about 1871. In 1880 they were in Neb. with the WW Cole circus. He may have travel first with Ringley Brothers. The 1900 census states they had no children. He was 57 and she was 46 on the census. He was 35#, 31 inches,and about 21-23 in a 1860 newspaper article. I do have a zerox copy of the couple picture. Anyone have more information on them? j Darius was my grandmother's mother's uncle.
