Yes, this looks like it is the same family, but I'm not sure the wife is Malinda Manes at this point as the very last child ~ Tennessee Bristow ~ is listed as a stepdaughter, and as the child is under 1 year old, I am wondering if Malinda died by then. She & George had a 4-yr old son on this census, so it seems she may have died between 1876 and 1880. Thank you so much for the tip & clue, and this family being in Washington fits right in with the rest of the information I've found on the family. ~gina~ --- AGGRAN2U@aol.com wrote: > Could this possibly be your George? > It's easy to seach the 1880 census by going to > Familysearch.org > <A > HREF="http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/census/individual_record.asp?INDI_CODE=1880US_4491570_0&frompage=5"> > Geo.
