Marilyn, Your inquiry may have just solved a mystery! I've looked for the name Joshua Dale in Mercer Co., not thinking to check Harrison Co. You noted the 1880 census listed a Charles E. Hogan? age 8. Probably Hogan is Morin. Do you have a death date for Joshua Dale? Eliza Ann Sexton was the 2nd wife of Andrew Jackson Morin, married in Mercer Co. Feb. 1870. They had 2 sons, Charles Edward (b. 1870) and George Washington (b. 1874). Andrew Morin died in 1875. After that Eliza married Joshua Dale and later James Heriford. I do not have a marriage date for either but, both could likely be found in the courthouses. Eliza was born Dec. 25, 1838; died Feb. 4, 1892; and is buried in the Pine Cemetery, Mercer Co. Eliza's obituary was recently posted on the Mercer Co. listserv. I will look for it. Looking forward to comparing other notes! -Judy > Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2002 17:36:08 -0700 > From: dbarm@advertisnet.com (Marilyn Schuetz) > To: MOHARRIS-L@rootsweb.com > > In the 1880 census for Trail Creek Township, Harrison county, there is a > listing for Joshua Dale, age 71, married to Eliza ? age 41.
