My Hugh Erwin was still alive in 1880 according to the Burke County, NC census. He is listed as deceased in 1886 on the marriage license of his daughter, Jemima. In 1850, 1860, 1880 he and his family are living in Burke County, NC. In 1870 they are living in Catawba County, NC and their last name is spelled Irvin. Thanks for trying to help.
