WINDFIELD SCOTT PURDY b 1827 or 1828 in Ohio. I think it was Huron County. He went by W. S. PURDY too. He married Abt. 1854 in Ohio to JULIA (don't know her maiden name). First child was born Abt. 1855, named HARRIET ELIZA PURDY in Ohio, found him on the 1860 Illinois census under W. S. Purdy. This is my brick wall, I would dearly love to find some information on who his father, grandfather might have been, while my husbands two sisters are still here to rejoice with me. They are in their late seventies, and have been having health problems lately. This man has been the most allusive man on my tree, I found him by his middle name in the 1870 census in Illinois. I don't know if this man is running from the law or something. After 1870 census I can't find him, on any of the later census. Its like he disappeared in a puff of smoke. I would love to also know what his wife's maiden name was too. Are there any marriage records for the 1850s in Huron County. I would appricate any help you could give me Shirley Sullivan
