Pratt, 7, NY Julia Ann Coleman, 3, NY Mary Adelia, 1, NY This is the order they are given in the census. I think Julia and Mary would be children of Peter and Sophia. I don't find them again in 1860 in either Jefferson or Broome Counties. But since you mentioned that Frank's mother's name may be Sophia, I thought it might be worth investigating. Good luck! Susan There are also two other people listed with the family, and the family members are all out of order, Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
