D., son, age 11 (in 1880) Cassius B., son, age 4 (in 1880) Thanks! Barbara Seyler

It's not much, but I found an Enoch in this directory and some other censuses: Titusville and Meadville cities and Crawford County directory, 1897-98. Meadville, Pa.?: W.H. Armitage, 1897 Beardsley, Enoch, retired, h Chestnut, nr Theological School Immediately above him is a C. B. Beardsley, student, h Chestnut, etc., as above. This might be your Cassius B.? ========================== Here's the 1900 census entry for him: 1900 >Pennsylvania>CRAWFORD>2-WD MEADVILLE Series: T623 Roll: 1399 Page: 83 BEARDSLEY ENOCH 64 M W OH PA CRAWFORD 2-WD MEADVILLE He was retired, b Feb 1836, OH, parents b CT, md 36 yrs; wife Addie E. b Jan 1841, PA, fa b CT, mo b PA, md 36 yrs, 3 children, 3 living; son Cassius B. b Nov 1875, PA. They were apparently living at 583 Chestnut St. ======================= And this one could be him with his grandfather???, next to his father??? : 1860 > Ohio > GEAUGA > HUNTSBURG Series: M653 Roll: 967 Page: 761 BEARDSLEY ENOCH 59 M W CT OH GEAUGA HUNTSBURG He's a farmer, b CT, with Betsy, b NH, Louisa 20, b OH, a C. S. teacher. Next door was Beardsley, Truman, 81, b CT, with Ester 80, b CT, and Enoch, 23, b OH, clerk. ==================================== Another 1860 one (not sure about this one, his age and b.p. aren't exactly right on. That might have come from someone else, and he could have been counted twice, once in each place, if he moved about the time of the census. I have seen that before.): 1860> Pennsylvania > ERIE > WATERFORD BORO Series: M653 Roll: 1108 Page: 1195 BERDSLY ENOCH 32 M W PA PA ERIE WATERFORD BORO He was 32, apparently single, living with the family of a merchant, S. C. Stanford, and working as a clerk {probably for Stanford?} ======================== And 1870: 1870 > Pennsylvania > ERIE > LE BOEUF TWP Series: M593 Roll: 1341 Page: 252 BEARDSLEY E 34 M W OH PA ERIE LE BOEUF TWP He was 34 b OH, a retired [!] merchant, wife Adda E. 27 b PA, Frankie E. 4 (female) b PA, Reed 1 (male) b PA, and Lottie Road 18, b PA, "lives in this family". =========================== Hope something here helps... --- Barbara <ropetracer@prodigy.net> wrote: > >From census, 1880 at Mill Village, Erie Co., > PA > Enoch Beardsley, age 44 (b 2/1836) in OH > Addie E., age 39 (b 1/1841) > Frankie, daughter, age 14 (in 1880) > R.
