Hi Sue Thank you for the information on this family, it was a big help. But I still cant connect this family with ours? I have a Cornelius born about 1850 with no parents listed with him. If I could connect him to this family it would be grate. My Cornelius had a son Andrew born Oct 1870, would be in 1880 census Abt 9-10 years old. I have my Cornelius's wife as Anna Marie Wert Can you do a 1880 census look up for me?
