I am working on my FIL's great grandfather, who I can only find in 1910 and 1920, nothing up to that point on the census records, so I understand the frustration. Kate Dear KATE, I only found SARAH FIELD in one census - 1850. I found her parents (JOHN FIELD & ERNESTINE ABERCROMBIE and their 2 sons) in 1860 (Camden, NJ) US census and her mother in 1870 (Philadelphia) US census & 1875 PCD and then her (ERNESTINE's) death notice in 1890 in Philadelphia Inquirer. I then found entire family buried in Holy Cross Cemetery along with the family of PHILBERT & MARY MATHIEU of Philadelphia. My point in sharing the death record was to show that even if you cannot find a person in census records they may have live longer than you suspect they did and did not marry as also suspected.
