    3. The 1860 US Census at Ancestry shows Squire Howe residing in the Town of Ithaca, Richland County, Wisconsin. Squire is reported as age 60, born in Vermont, occupation farmer. His wife Lucina, is reported as age 53, born in Vermont Residing with them is Elias Howe, age 17, laborer, born in Lower Canada. The next household shows Rufus Howe, age 23, laborer, born in Lower Canada and Holliday Howe (female), age 30, born in Lower Canada. I haven't found anything yet to tie them to Squire and Lucina, though. IN the 1880 Census, Elias Howe, age 38, still resides in Ithaca, Wisconsin. In the household are his wife Minnie, age 30, Son Franklin, age 8, and daughter Kate, age 3. The Wisconsin state Census of 1905 Shows Elias F. Howe, age 62, still in Ithaca, Wisconsin Wife Mary J.; daughter Nona S, age 21, born in Wisconsin, is a school teacher Son Harry A, age 16, born in Wisconsin, is a farm laborer. Elias, Mary and Harry show up in the 1910 Census with son Harry still living at home; the 1920 Census records just Elias and Mary in the household. The 1910 census also reports Elias's arrival date as about 1855 The History of Royalston, Vermont (available on Ancestry) has a large segment on Squire Howe's father (also Squire Howe). Of your Squire, it notes born 13 July 1800; married Lucina Humphrey. (page 827) Howe genealogies. Edward Howe of Lynn, Mass Abraham How of Watertown and Marlborough, Mass James How of Roxbury and Ipswich, Mass Abraham Howe of Roxbury, Mass - also at Ancestry, has additional information on the earlier lines, but nothing on your Squire, as he was not born in Vernon, which was the area in discussion
