Boatmen are definitely included on the 1850 and 1860 censuses. I have collected several on my lines. Happy hunting, Virginia -----Original Message----- From: Gordon J. Johnson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, September 06, 2003 7:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: ALFORD OR ALFRED, Cyrus L. I'm looking for a marriage record for Cyrus (Lafayette) Alford or Alfred to a Melvina, maiden name unknown, 22 Sept. 1851 in Oswego, NY. They had a son, Cyrus Jr. in 1852. Does anyone know if boatmen were overlooked in the Federal Censuses? I think Cyrus may have been one. Are there any other records of Oswego that I can check OnLine??

Ah, Yes but where were they counted, at home or away?
