Mary, Thanks for the reply. There is a Jemimah Smith listed in the Hunterdon 1874 death register for Delaware and her father is listed as John Huffman. She was 65 when she died. Unfortunately, they don't mention the husband's name. Her birth year of 1809 would work for what I know of her children's births. I'm looking for a Jemima who was married to a Henry Smith in Hunterdon. Banging my head against that brick wall.

All, Received the attached from Marietta. Unfortunately, BellSouth Personal Web Page accounts only allow for 33MHz of bandwidth access a day. I was somewhat appalled but can't do much about at this time. My apologies to all who run into this problem. HOWEVER, I am working a fix which I hope to have completed by not later then next week. I will be hosting my web site at a commercial web hosting firm and that should resolve any similar problems. It will also allow me to expand my web pages without issue of size. Will keep the page running on BellSouth until I get the other site up and tested. Sorry.

For those that subscribe, Ancestry.com has just posted the census mortality schedules for years 1850-1880. They do not list relations, so you have to be sure based on other factors that the person you found is in your line (through birthdate, place of birth, etc.) For infants, there is no list of parents, and for married people there is no listing of spouse. As death certificates were not always filed, these are good additional resources, however limited. See below... Here is part of ancestry's description: "Part of the U.S. Federal Censuses from 1850-1880 included a mortality schedule enumerating the individuals who had died in the previous year. Because each of the censuses from 1850-1880 began on June 1, "previous year" refers to the 12 months preceding June 1, or June 1 (of the previous year) to May 31 (of the census year). This database contains an index to all individuals enumerated in these mortality schedules. In addition, each individual is linked to the census image on which they appear. Not all information that is recorded on the actual census is included in the index. Therefore, it is important that you view the image on which your ancestor is recorded to obtain all possible information about him/her. Extended Description: Questions asked in the mortality schedules: Deceased's name Sex Age Color (White, black, mulatto) Whether widowed Place of birth (state, territory, or country) Month in which the death occurred Profession, occupation, or trade Disease or cause of death Number of days ill Parents' birthplaces (added in 1870) Place where disease was contracted and how long the deceased was a resident of the area (added in 1880) --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
