The only reason that I was wondering is because apparently my Sarah Angline ORCUTT was a domestic/servant in Hiram's household on the '55 census. She was young and she was widowed with two small children at the time. Her last name was CHESEBRO and her children did not live with her. I can't find her son anywhere in the US! Just trying to see if I could get another angle to the story. The ten years from 1850 - 1860 have been the hardest part of her life to piece together. Thanks so much anyway, Jo Dee
