I'm still not sure that the scrapbook says Amelia (sic) Emma and John ARE siblings or if that is just more "random notes" by my great uncle. My cousin with custody of it called them siblings but whether by specific designation or inference, I don't know. I'm stuck on seeing Mary M, of the right age, in the Orin Seeley hh in the 1850 Census in Niagara Co. By the 1851 Canada census she and James are with his dad, Smith, in Ontario. We have that they married in 1852, she is Shotwell on census and that's bugged me but I just noticed the "residence in 1852" heading maybe means the Canadians took their 1851 Census in 1852?? I don't find the 1860 Census for MN you mention - I search both Mary and James and don't have it come up. How do you search?? I'd found the 1870 and 1880 ones. My e-mail is Nonnylou@aol.com if you'd be so kind as to send it. I'm off, ironically, for a genealogy session at a local library today. Things are happening so fast this week that my head IS spinning. Thx for your input/help and I'll certainly let you know what I find. nls Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
