The 1900 census, 7 Jun, Peters Twp, Franklin Co, PA, dwelling 74 shows: Divelbiss, Wm 25, b. May 1875 PA wife Bessie 19, b. Aug 1880 PA dau. Ester 2, b. May 1898. Next door to William at dwelling 73 was Mary Divelbiss, 54 b. Mar 1846, widow. This is the same Mary that Beth Ann shows in 1880 married to David, however the ages in 1880 are somewhat difficult to read and are actually 35 and 34 instead of 55 & 54. - Mike Beth Ann Deardorff wrote: > ===================================================================== > A result of your requested PML search.
